Please be sure
to legibly enclose (a letter printed or written in ink is preferred) including:
Your name
Your address
Your e-mail
address
The month
your donation is for
Do you sell or distribute my information?
No. We use your information to create
your account and mail out your stuff. That's it. We don't sell it, trade
it, or give it to anyone else. Apart from the above, I mean. We give the
post office your address, otherwise the mail would never get there
Will I be automatically charged
every month if I donate?
No. We do not have any kind of subscription
plan. If you donate one month, you will not be automatically charged in
the future.
Is the total given gross,
or net?
It is gross; PayPal's 3% (plus their
$00.25 take) per transition is not taken out of each donation total before
it is added to the donation bar.
Where does the money donated to
the NDU comics go to?
All the money goes to Terrence and
Isabel Marks and goes towards paying for the site's bandwidth, the time
and supplies it takes to create the comics as well as to fund book
production (or, at least it did. And it will again if we ever send out monthly books). Some of the money will go to the artist's other bills
as well.
What if the donation goal is not
met?
Namir Deiter will go back to five
days a week while You Say it First will go to three days a week.
The pay site accounts will not be discontinued. The next month we'll
try again to reach our goal. None of the comics will end because the donation goal is not met.
Why are you doing this?
Over the last few years working on
the comics has become a full time job yet I was barely making part time
pay for the work I was doing. Currently our financial situation is
one of such that it is time to try and actually get paid a little more
for all the hours I put into the comic each month.
How long does it take for my namirdeiter.net
account to be activated?
It can take up to 48 hours.
Your month (31 days) will not begin until your password and user name are
e-mailed to you.
[UPDATED] I donated $50+ and I
live in the U.S./ I live outside of the U.S- when will I receive
my bonus item?
If the item is made already (i.e.
original pages of art from the bonus comics), it will be sent out as soon
as the bonus comic book is complete and ready to send out. If it
is an original piece of art is made per person, it could take up to a week
after the bonus book is complete for it to be sent out. Most items
will be shipped at the end of the month, unless otherwise noted in namirdeiter.net
All items shipped within the US will
be shipped first class. All items shipped outside of the US will
be sent Ground (which can take 4-6+ weeks).
[UPDATED] I donated the set
amount to receive the bonus comic book, when will I receive my item?
We're not currently offering physical books for donationg, but back when we did:
This also depends on when the item
is actually made. Please be sure to check out namirdeiter.net for
the latest information on when the item will be sent out. All items
shipped within the US will be shipped first class. All items shipped
within the US will be shipped first class. All items shipped
outside of the US will be sent Ground (which can take 4-6+ weeks).
[UPDATED] I want to donate
but I do not have Paypal. Can I still donate?
Yes! Please send checks or
money order (cash may get lost- so please send at your own risk- you may
want to hide it with a card) made out to Isabel Marks and send to:
Isabel Marks
P.O. Box 2246
Glendora, CA 91740
Please be sure to print your NAME,
E-MAIL ADDRESS, THE MONTH WHICH YOU ARE DONATING TO and SHIPPING
ADDRESS and send it along- otherwise you might not get your books and
that would be bad!
Can I share my account or the bonus
content with others?
We'd greatly prefer you not to, considering
the site is a thank you for all the people who donated.
What happens if I forget my password?
Please e-mail terrece @ yousayitfirst.com
with your name and your Paypal transaction number for your donation.
We will try and have your password sent to you as soon as possible.
Who runs NamirDeiter.net?
Just the little artist and her big
strong programming husband. Terrence does all the programming. Isabel does
all the art. They split web design and writing duties. So if there's a
problem, e-mail one of us and we'll get it fixed. Just please remember
that it's just the two of us doing a lot of everything, so we might be
a bit slow.
Do you pay taxes on this? Are donations deductible? [NEW]
These donations are not tax-deductible. We are not a charity. We pay taxes on it.
