Come to think about, this idea is actually fairly kick-ass (in theory).
Some problems, maybe you've already thought about these, just throwing these things out there:
1) We don't have many members (not much money circulating on here)
2) Out of those few members, not many are very wealthy (I'm only assuming)
3) Out of those members that even could donate, many don't want to and prefer free programs
4) How would we decide on a program that everyone wants and is willing to donate to?

i am willing to do it. If i know the names of the individual ebooks in it i might be able to find it. But i dont think any1 else have it.

As for Youngtricker, we can just buy this program for now and its the only program we are lacking.

how would we transfer the money into the account, and would the mods agree with this see if i buy a program and give it to you i get a warning but if we all chip in he is making less money on his product kind of like before. i like the idea but mods might not.

i understand..... we should appoint 3 ppl..... to oversee this like me rangerid, and redsoxfan15! then we can talk amongst our selves and decide what we should buy and stuff like that... that way... the owner of the product isnt me or u its www.streetballtalk.com's property... and u have to be a contributer to recieve the items we purchase! that way we attract more ppl and we get less spammers, because thats like a motivation for them!

are u liking the idea any better?

i like that idea
i think that to choose you should take a handful on knowledgeful mods and trusted members and vote on what the site wants

i luv the idea...tho i am not sure how paypal works. and i dont know how to donate money either.

i dont got a bank account cuz i keep all my money at home in a safe :\

If we do get the money, we need to appoint some1 to buy it and then we can distribute it.
