GreenZap a Paypal alternative with $25 preregister free.

PayPal Alternative set to make waves in multi-billion dollar online payment market. Subscribers get $25.00 for opening an account, and up to $30 for referring others.

(PRWEB) April 4, 2005 -- There's a new online payment system preparing to launch and it stands to give other payment services a run for their money. GreenZap has announced the pre-launch of a new online payment system that will compete head to head with PayPal and other such services.

GreenZap will offer functionality you'd expect from a peer-to-peer online payment system, and will continue to expand its offerings to meet market needs. What will dinstinguish GreenZap from it's competitors is the unique and generous referral bonus program for new account holders and referral sources.

GreenZap's growth strategy is to allow community members to share in the wealth through handsome referral fees. For example, all GreenZap customers who open an account will receive $25.00 deposited in their account free. "GreenZappers" as they are called can then earn between $5.00 to $30.00 for sharing the service with others through a promotional code they are assigned when they create their account.

This model has been employed by other companies who rocketed onto the scene in their markets including MCI, Sprint, Vonage, and even PayPal, but the thing that makes GreenZap different is the extent to which referrals are compensated. It may be an industry first that commission are paid across the entire community of people you get started and not just the people you refer personally.


Donations

If you're toiling away to maintain a blog that people enjoy, why not ask your guests to show a little monetary appreciation? The online payment service PayPal (www.paypal.com) lets you add a donation button to your blog. You can opt to receive money in U.S. dollars, Canadian dollars, Japanese yen, pounds sterling or euros. When visitors give money, PayPal sends you an e-mail to let you know. Amazon's Honor System (www.amazon.com/honorsystem) and BitPass (www.bitpass.com) offer similar donation options.


Be the middleman

Many companies run "affiliate" programs: Post an ad provided by Amazon.com or Lands' End, for example, and receive a small commission every time your readers click that ad, go to the company's Web site and end up buying a book or splurging on a down parka. Referral fees -- the cash you get from these transactions -- vary (you can earn as much as 10 percent per sale from Amazon). LinkShare (www.linkshare.com) claims to run the Internet's biggest "affiliate marketing network," with more than 600 companies on its roster of advertisers. Another service, Commission Junction (www.cj.com), runs programs for eBay and Expedia.com, among others.


Play ad-sales exec

If you want more control over the ads on your blog, hit www.blogads.com. BlogAds lets you join its database free and set your own ad prices. Companies (including media bigs such as Paramount Pictures and Random House) then search for suitable blogs and purchase ad space for a set period -- say, one month. In contrast to the way AdSense works, your earnings don't depend on whether a reader clicks the ad. All you have to do is give 20 percent of your net revenue to Mr. BlogAd, and you keep the rest. Perhaps best of all, you can indulge your megalomaniacal tendencies by approving or declining potential ads at will.


Let google do the work for you

Selling ad space might be the oldest way to make a buck, and with Google's free AdSense service (www.google.com/adsense), it's way too easy. AdSense allows bloggers to display up to three content-specific "ad units" (boxes that can hold up to four ads each) per page. "If you're writing about sports cars, they'll be ads about sports cars," says Biz Stone, Blogger senior specialist at Google. Each time a visitor clicks these ads, you get paid. Google doesn't disclose its exact share of the revenue, but a personalized report page lets you track your own earnings. Earn at least $100 and Google sends you a check.

Online Image Editing

Got my self another personal project wich will delay the PROcms/RSRcms a bit.
But the reason i desided to complete this project first is that its gonna be included in the CMS

An online image editor to edit web photos without any download.
I have been working on this for about a week now and its beginning to look like an editor
so i though it was about time to tell the world about it :)

The editor is build in Flash/PHP/Gdlib
so there will be some requirements such as
Server requirements: PHP og Gdlib 2+
Browser requrements: Flash player 7+

Basic information about the editor:

The editor will be able to handle pictures up to 2500x2500 pixel
and the main picture viewable dimentions is 500x500 pixel so zoom and navigator is included.
The navigator type is a little image box with a square wich shows whats viewable on main picture.
There will also be a history list so you can undo/redo what ever mistakes you should make.
Then a tool bar with all the future tools i got in mind and for those to come.
And ofcourse a menu to the functions/actions/effects

Here is a list of the existing functions

  1. Open image
  2. Undo
  3. Redo
  4. Image size
  5. Canvas size
  6. Rotate 90
  7. Rotate 180
  8. Rotate 270
  9. Flip horizontal
  10. Flip vertical

Here is a list of the existing effects

  2. Scanlines

There will in 2 or 3 weeks be an online beta test version available but i will return later on with further information
