Tip Your Favorite Artist

A little eco-anarchy project:

Mission

Create a website that simply contains the PayPal links to the actual creators of intellectual entertainment bits such as games, music, movie makers and writers.

Features

A list of artists by category with tabs for Games, Musicians, Writers, Movie Makers, and so on — but the categories do not get their labels until at least 50 artists in each category are set up.

The list should be in alphabetical order.

Images of the cover art for the albums should be used to advertise the work of the author.

An email link and web link for the artist if available should be listed.

No total amount received or other information other than the link to the artist should be listed.

In the future, instead I would like to track those who give. Those who have given the most get listed at the top of the site with an email and weblink. Those who have given most recently also get an email and a weblink. Perhaps as much as the top 100 of each category.

Roll-out Plan

Game developers first due to local contacts
Music next due to the horribly vulnerable state that industry is in
Writers...
Journalists
...
etc.

Eventually I would like to hire some staff members to collect and verify PayPal accounts.
