[Guide] Donation Page [Noob Friendly]

**bulletzaredeadly** · 08-19-2008

Hi everyone and welcome to my guide on how to make an html donations webpage.

1)
Open notepad and copy this code into your document
<html>
<title>Title of Page</title>
</head>
<body>
Text of page...
</body>
</html>

This is your main code for your page

2)
Change the Title and Text of the page to your likings.

Here are some basic codes that will help you do so

For colors it is all in hex form: here is a picture of all the hex codes for colors:

<body bgcolor="#000000"> Background Color

text Font Color

... Bolded Text

... Italic Text

<center>...</center> Centered Text

 Paragraph: Skip a line: Hitting enter to skip a line will not work here

<hr> Horizontal Rule: Horizontal line across screen

<a href="http://URL">...</a> Link

<img src="image.gif"> Insert Image

text Font Size

3)
Now that you have your page set up how you like it we can add our Donation Rewards

This is how I set mine up

Name Of Reward - $100.00
[PAYPAL BUTTON CODE]

and keep doing that for all of my items. you can add the codes to these item titles as well.

4)
To make paypal buttons go to www.paypal.com and logon. Click Merchant Services at the top and create the button to your liking. Copy all of the code it generates and paste it under your reward name.

5)
Now you have all of your buttons, text, rewards and have the page set up how you like.

So now save your file. Make sure you change it from .txt files to All Files or it wont work

So save it as filename.html

be sure to add .html at the end of your file name

6)
Go to your server's forums and create a new topic and post.

This is somewhat what you should have for text in your post:

TO DONATE:
CLICK THIS LINK:
[will explain this in next step]
HIT OPEN: THIS WILL TAKE YOU TO THE HTML PAGE THAT WILL ALLOW YOU TO DONATE AND RECIEVE YOUR REWARDS!

DONATION TERMS AND AGREEMENTS:
[link to your donation terms and agreements page]
once you have bought item please open a ticket ingame with your paypal username, the item you donated for, and how much the item was, and we will provide you with your purchased item!

thanks for donating to Server Name

7)
Now attatch your saved .html file to the post and save it
Now go back to your post and click the attached file and click open.

At the top of your browser will be the address bar. Copy the address.

Now go back to your post and modify it.

Paste the address you just copied here:

TO DONATE:
CLICK THIS LINK:
[HERE]
HIT OPEN: THIS WILL TAKE YOU TO THE HTML PAGE THAT WILL ALLOW YOU TO DONATE AND RECIEVE YOUR REWARDS!

Now when people go to that link and hit open they will be at your donations page!

Oh wow! I just taught you 2 things at once! Now you know basic HTML and how to make a page out of it!

Here is a live example of the donations page I made for my server:
