HI ALL;
As u might have seen,coolgadget wants to leave us.I wish to have this something like a petition and ask him to stop.Let the number of us make him change his mind.All those who enjoyed the ROMs and other things from the site,please add a post as a sign.
Regards
RAMBO29 very nice from you.
You can count on my vote to support.
Me too
I'm sorry that the devs are feeling upset by comments from a small minority of users, but guys they ARE a small minority. I for one really appreciate the work done on the ROMS and the support provided by some very talented people on these forums.

Don't let the dimwits win - stay on board!
Please stay.
Although I haven't been a member for long, I have begun to appreciate Xda-Devs as my second home (quite literally) and I'd hate to see a small minority disrupt the cause of the greater good.
Just my 0.02$

I understand you.
Please stay!

Hello!I`m a memmber of this forum for some time and now for about 2 weeks i changed my device and go to other part of this forum but i noticed that almost all power users from here are waiting for donations to make something once all of this wasn`t like this what happend with that days?
I'm not power user or cooker but a donation isn't a must: you can do or not do it.
They spend a lot of time to do their works and if I want to donate some € for a good work I do it else I can use the SW without problem and w/o donation.
D'rath
If people are not releasing something because they will only do so if they get donations they are violating Forum Rule 8. Feel free to report them.
See rules here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/announcement.php?f=256
FORUM RULES said:
8. Donations.
We appreciate all donations to xda-developers.com, it keeps our forum online and well maintained. As a user you're allowed to ask for donations in your signature as a thank you for your hard work. However donations up front are not allowed, this forum is about sharing, not about getting paid to do something, that's what your job is for.

Most of them make roms because they like to do it and they want to, that's it!
It's wrong to put in BIG words in the signature and everywhere else, as if the roms that they do, are really, really, really hard work.
What hard work? lol! Nobody force them to make roms...

As a modder I put in lots of time into my work. I release about 4-8 ROM variations a week. I also release some other minor stuff, packages for chefs and a few other things. There are plenty of sleepless nights for me. A little something in return is always nice.
Here is a little story and how end users can be greedy too.
A couple of weeks ago I had to sell my device for finacial reasons. I posted in my ROM thread that I will not be releasing a new ROM because I had to sell my phone. I came back online around 3 hours later to find about 140 private messages in my inbox. All but 3 asked for my ROM without a thanks and/or sorry to hear about your current situation. That got me very mad. So I changed how my ROMs were distributed.
All of my Lite and Super Lite ROMs, ROMs with no TF3D 2.1 or 2.5 or for Public use. All my TF3D2.X are for private users. To be a private user you have to be an active member of the community who comes in here and tries to help others. You are not a user who just downloads stuff, does not say thanks and then always complains about a few bugs. Or if you prefer you can make a donation. Lets say you would rather not bother helping others, don't have the time too or just want to say thanks to the modder with a little donation.
For myself I do not use TF3D and I take the time out to make something I do not use for myself for the end user so what is wrong with getting a little something in return for my time?
Every other thing I do on XDA is up for grabs for everyone...

Have you ever tried to make a ROM? To say it is not hard work is just plain stupid.
I do agree with you with the big buttons and what not...
You should be thankful that people on here like make ROMs. Have any idea what it would cost you to walk into a phone store and have something like this done, that's if even they know how too?
If it is not hard work then give it a shot and see how easy it is.
Some people are just so ungrateful...
I am glad that you don't have a Rhodium...
Since I shared a bad story here is a...
very amazing story!!!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4545746&postcount=771
Shocked. But if it's a donation...
I'm a chef, but I don't ask for any donation for releasing my ROMs.
I develop my ROMs for the people who wants it, and I'm happy to help you all to have a good OS and functional PDA.
However, my "Donation" link is always in my signature because if someone would like to help my hard work with his donation I'll be happy to accept it... but I'll continue to release my ROMs even if noone donates.
As for now, noone donated.. and I released a lot of versions of my ROMs, and I don't ask for any obligatory donation ^^
Chefs here doesn't ask for anything... donation is only for "giving" a simple "Thank You!" for the hard work we are doing!
Sincerely,
kholk.

That is very generous of the user. Even if he does not follow through with the device, that must be a great compliment to receive.
Possible solution
I don't know how xda feels about this but could they place something akin to google adwords into the topic so that the user who made the topic could get a piece of the pie. Of course xda would get a cut too. =p

No need to offer money, most people would offer you free assistance. A quick search using 'wallpaper' in the Themes, Applications and Software forum and you would have found your answer.
Possibly something like this
Right, but the problem is that I've been fiddling about with this for a week now, and it's just not working out. I'm one of those people that suck big time with technical things...
That's why I'd appreciate help through a conversation, it would help me personally a lot more...
Cheers
I'm sure if you asked within this thread, the creator or others would guide you through it. At least you should get a quicker & more accurate response
Not something I've used a lot personally, though I didn't remember it being too difficult
i will help you mate,give me your wallpaper
Hey everyone.
I've been coming here for a while now. And all I seem to do is congratulate developers on their work and leech ROMs/freeware.
I DONT WANT TO DO THIS!
I want to help/contribute to the site. But don't know how. I know I can donate, but when you don't have a job and need every penny that comes your way, what can you do?
I've thought of cooking ROMs, but don't know where to start.
The only other thing I can think of is offering my services beta testing.
Any idea on what I can do to help all you AMAZING developers become even more amazing?
Add me on MSN.
Lets get something going!

One worthwhile way to help/contribute is by helping newbies -- at least pointing them towards the answer...and that means doing more than just saying "SEARCH!"
Think you're just a newbie yourself? There's always somebody who knows less than you. (See what the Administrator says in the Announcements in Rule #10 )
I know what you mean. There's always articles or guides that could be updated or created on the XDA wiki. Otherwise like MCbrian said just answering questions so the pros can stay on task is always good.
Hello all, just wanted to let you all know (if you didn't already) about a new launcher that's up and coming for Android. I stumbled upon it the other day and though it's only in Beta stage at the moment I'm really growing to love it. By the look of it they put in on our phone originally and I think you can tell by the fluidity and smoothness of it IMO. I've been using it instead of Sense for a few days now and although there are a lot of things I'd like to see come to it it's a nice change and a innovative idea.
And before you all jump on me no I'm not spamming/advertising for them, I have no affiliation with the Aviate developers what so ever nor any reason to sing their praises other than for their work.
I just wanted to share what I have found, you can find out more Here and Here
Be aware that currently Aviate is invite only however I know there is a thread somewhere here on the main General forum with invites going. I also have 5 available to give out so if you want one PM me your email address (obviously it's first come first served so the first 5 people will get an invite code)
Anyways, check it out, it's pretty cool
If I come across any other cool stuff I might even update this post with some more.

Yes very true. I've sent them my feedback on it already. I think they need less standard Spaces and to allow custom ones and deeper editing of the standard set. Other then that right now it seems very nice.
