Guest Color strips plus new donation campaign: what would yo

I hope all of you are enjoying the Guest Color Strips. I had a blast reviewing the submissions and seeing other people's ideas of what color can add to the strip. In fact, the strips following the Guest Color Week will have much more elaborate color than the ones before:

And this is creating a bit of a problem for me. The coloring has become much more demanding of the computers I'm working on, so both my computer at home and the more powerful one at the studio are driving me up the wall! Plus I've discovered the usefulness of art tablets, which I don't have at home. So, it's time for me to invest in a new motherboard, more memory and an art tablet.

To raise that money, I'll have to start a new donation campaign. Like the last time around, I will have extra art for donors, and I will continue to put up extra updates for each $100 raised, but I'd also like to know what you people would like me to make available. Some other artists offer wallpapers or skins as part of their donation campaigns; would you like some of those? Something else?

Also, I'm making myself available for art commissions - I'm thinking of doing one-of-a-kind ROCR drawings for about $50 for a simple drawing (say, a recreation of your favorite ROCR scene, or a neat portrait of a cast member) to hang on your wall or add to your art collection, and a little more than that for more complex works or non-ROCR art.

I'm not sure if I have a lot of art collectors among my readers, but there are bound to be some! Let me know what you think of the idea, in any case.

The best thing I've seen to help with this sort of thing, is to post a progress meter. 'I have X dollars (er whatever that is in Holland) out of the Y that I need' right next to the playpal button.

Take Care

Working on it!

The best variant that I've seen lately is Kiwi's atNot Gonna Take It which details how much she needs, how much she's got, what she's gonna spend it on and what she's gonna do in return.
Topped off by a trip to Comicon for $ 1000. I'd like one of those too:-)
