Heya.
I finished what I believe is the longest 'page per hour' comic ever and was hoping to show it to those who donate.
I'm selling it via BitPass but was unsure how much I should charge. Remember that all money which enters the BitPass account I set up will be sent to Unicef - this is for a good cause.
I was initially thinking of maybe asking people to donate 50c + however much more they wanted, but am currently thinking of asking for $3 or something like that, seeing as that would be the 'price' for some people anyway.
I just wanted to ask what others thought and so reactions and such would be very much appreciated.
In case you wonder, I was gonna scan at the library, but after many problems that way, am buying myself a scanner today. Might be up tomorrow.
100 hour comic for charity - how much should it be?

But.. that's impossible...
So what are you suggesting?
That I let folk see it regardless and ask for donations?
Or that I let folk see it after a donation of any size?
In either case, there is still a minimum - of either 0c or 1c in each case respectively. And I almost fear that many would simply give that absolute minimum. After all, then they'd have almost no more reason to donate than had I not done this.
The point of my doing this was to provide another incentive for people to donate - it's not as if I'm demanding the payment. I'm just saying 'hey, donate some money! It's a good cause! And if you are able to donate X amount, I'll let you read this comic as a thank-you.
