All right then, I have decided to try and raise a few bucks to help me create my next free WordPress theme. I see it as sort of like a number of folks all ponying up a few buck a piece to commission a new, cool, standards complaint WordPress theme.

I like releasing the free themes, but as my little family grows and life occurs it is harder and harder to spend time in front of the computer except for working on paying clients sites. So I decided to split the cost of the next freebie theme – I am trying to raise half the cost of what I charge for a custom theme for my clients.

I have created over 65 WordPress themes and as my experience increases so do the quality of my themes, so I am confident that I will be providing the WordPress community something of value with this new theme.

The chip in system makes it easy to use your PayPal account or a credit card to contribute as much or as little to this project as you would like and it has the added benefit of being vetted by a third party. Everyone that contributes over $5 and wants a thank you link will get one.

Just use the Chip In widget on the top of the left hand sidebar to get started.
