Greetings all!

I have here a very gorgeous set of Wings made by our talented Pyrokat23! Originally I was going to just add them as a new item, but I felt they were too amazing and should be used as an incentive for our very first Donation Drive!

I know, it sucks being asked for money and trust me, I hate asking! But, we have some very exciting things planned for the future and unfortunately those things require cash. Curious as to what those things might be? Well, first off I have been talking with someone to do code a custom website for me with some very exciting features. I’ve also been speaking to different artists about getting new species and new items for the ponies done!

But, this drive is going to be for something a little less fun and that’s servers, hosting and basically a foundation for our future website! I know you guys aren’t going to be able to donate enough to fund the whole thing, but a little bit of help would make it easier on me! So, here’s the deal!

First, I’ll show you the Wishing Wings, showcased by a gorgeous, but generic DDW pony! Stunning aren’t they?!

This is how it’s going to work. For every $2 that you donate you will be able to add the Wishing Wings to a pony! So if you donate $6 you would have three uses of the Wishing Wings! Please note: The Wishing Wings are exclusive to this event, meaning you can only get them by donating!

That’s not all though! “Really, Icy, there’s more!?” Yes, there’s more! I have a few other things in mind for my sweet, giving addicts, too! I’ve come up with a tier system. So the more you donate, the more goodies you receive!

Every $2 USD - Wishing Wings

Plus Additional Goodies at the following Tiers:
$6 USD - Birthday Bag (can be gifted if you already own it) + Donor Title
$10 USD - 50% off Wing and Twin Options!
$12 USD - 50% off Artist’s Choice
$16 USD - Free Full Custom
$20 USD - Free Breeding + 50% off Full Custom

Keep in mind you can only donate in increments of $2! But, every time you hit a tier you will receive the same goody again! So if you donate $40 you would get everything twice and get 20 uses of the Wishing Wings! I don’t really expect anyone to donate that much, but the possibility is there. :)

“Okay Icy, I’m salivating here, how do I donate?!”

Well, that is going to be a little more complicated! Here’s what we’re going to do though. You will send your donations in via the following link. I’m sorry, but the only way I know how to send payments online is via Paypal so that’s what is being used. When you make your donation please remember to include your DDW forum username so that I know who sent it and can give you the perks!

I will PM you to verify the transaction and to give you a complete list of everything you will be receiving. Should you forget to include your username, PM me immediately so I can work with you to verify the donation.

Please note: The Paypal address being used has been set up by me for DDW. All funds will remain in the account until they are used for DDW purchases. Your money will not be lining my pocket! I will not get so much as a single cent of it. Everything is going into DDW!

With all of that said, you may commence donating. Thanks in advance to everyone who lends a hand, it is greatly appreciated! If you have questions about the overall process, please post here. If you have questions regarding a transaction, to protect your privacy, please send me a PM!

Hey hon. You mean Wishing Star? She isn't for sale, sweetie. She's an advertisement pony to showcase the Wings and the DDW ponies in general. ;)

Okay since this looks like it is an issue, I have received a PM from someone who is very concerned and I want to make sure any problems are dealt with NOW.

It seems that some people have misunderstood some things that are going on with DDW that I thought was pretty clear. The first being that DDW is moving off UF and becoming entirely independent. It has grown to large to stay here and really isn't far to Tarsupin and the UF staff that a whole other adoptable (a fairly big one at that) is being run within their own adoptable website!

It is also due to the Pony Island member base who have no way to play or adopt new ponies because they do not play UF. It's not fair to them that the UF members get to enjoy the ponies and they sadly have to live without. (flip that around and imagine DDW having ended on UF so that there was no place to get more ponies, how would that make you feel?)

This started as a slow transaction and now it is picking up speed. When the new website is finished (in a month or two) DDW will no longer be offering slots here! Perhaps I have been unclear on that point and I apologize. DDW is getting a fresh new start as a pet adoptable site all its own and will no longer be leeching off UF! :P

In preparation the DDW ponies are being reformated. You can read more about that HERE in the Hangout Thread!

It seems the Reformat has bothered some people who are not comfortable with it. As such I am offering the following...

If you feel you have paid for something that you are not getting then I will gladly refund your donations. No harm, no foul.

I honestly was not trying to mislead anyone and thought everyone was aware what was happening and what it meant. That is obviously not the case so I am offering this refund to those who want to call it quits.

Thanks to everyone who has supported DDW in the past. I hope these changes do not drive away our amazing members and followers. You are all appreciated and I will miss anyone who feels the need to part ways with DDW at this point.

Although I already declined my refund over in the DDW thread on Unifaction, I figured I would do it here as well. Although you do still need to PM me with my list of stuff... *hint hint*

I am totally DECLINING my refund here as well! :)
