Information, please

Attention Bloggers: there are now three things in your profile for you to edit: direct donation link for your charity, sponsor email customization, and webcam information. Log in and click on Edit Profile to see them.

If you entered this earlier, you may need to enter it again, as we had a bug and had to clear the information.

The details:

First, go to your charity's website and find their donation page. This is the URL you will copy into the "URL of your charity's donation page". This URL will be sent to your sponsors after the event, so they can fulfill their pledges. If you are blogging in Malaysia, you may ignore this field.

Next, add a custom message to your sponsor, if you like. Most bloggers use this to say thank you, as it reaches even anonymous sponsors. Sometimes there are special instructions to pass on to your sponsors, and you can do that here. Malaysian bloggers: this is where you will instruct your sponsors on how to donate to your charities.

Finally, if you have a webcam, enter the URL of the image in the webcam field. We will use that to display your webcam on our portal, and it will include a link to your site.
