OLC

The SSA has fixed the method to make a contribution to the OLC. Go to:
http://zme.amazon.com/exec/varzea/pa...696183-4320035

If you contribute, you will get a "smiley face" when you make a flight
claim. At this moment, very few of those who log their flights have a
smiley face before their name, and pilots need to give the small
financial support required to keep the OLC functioning.

There's a reason for seeing no smiley faces.
So far, smiley faces have not been given to USA contributors to the
OLC. I was one of the first to ask the OLC to provide a method of
contributing outside of Europe, and know half a dozen or so pilots who
have contributed using the method Hannes came up with (Amazon.com) and
have no smiley face.

I asked Doug Haluza about this at the convention. If you contribute
through Amazon, forward a copy of your receipt to him and he will add
the smiley face.

The reason I delayed in mentioning this is that Doug said they were
having trouble with the e-mail alias forwarding properly
after the move to the new server. I'll allow Doug to comment on which
e-mail he'd like used at this time.

OLC needs help !!!
gladly paid my seven bucks
where's my smiley face ???

oops, wrong thread
really, I paid $25
It will be harder to get wide participation in voluntary donataions
without the smiley faces. peer pressure works.

I made a donation today. The site provided a link to a page that ask how
much I had donated and stated the "smiley face" would appear in a few days.
Are you stating that the "smiley face" page doesn't work?
