Dear Aaron, meanwhile my first testupload is available. So I ask you to download it and it would be great to have your feedback.
The downloaded file is a selfcontained TiddlyWiki in form of an HTML-file with embedded JavaScript:
Call for Help in testing
(This leads to a downloadable file meant for Aaron, Christian or one of the friendly staff of E-Junkie. It costs 0.99 US$ and the author pledges to pay it back via PayPal.
Anyone else, who tests this is supposed to be a sponsor. Thank you in this case.)
Aaron: This shows what's in my cart ie nothing. It does not have a link to your download product. Aaron Poeze 00:45, 9 July 2008 (PDT)
Fridemar: Thank you Aaron, so we will have to concentrate us on the PayButton. fridemar 15:10, 9 July 2008 (PDT)
Aaron: Yes, however we will need to figure out how to let an interested party add specific pages of their choosing to a cart.
What about this BuyButton?
Aaron: I don't know why but this is hanging. I see a spinning loading icon which doesn't stop. It seems to be having trouble getting to paypal. Perhaps something is down. My other internet sites are ok. Yes paypal is down i am unable to access it directly. I will try it again later. Probably i will need something in the cart :) Aaron Poeze 00:45, 9 July 2008 (PDT)
Fridemar: Alternatively we can make temporary Buttons in our Blogs. fridemar 15:10, 9 July 2008 (PDT)
Aaron: Or both Aaron Poeze 00:45, 9 July 2008 (PDT)
Aaron: Success. The payment button is working. Paypal is not down. The payment button forces paypal payment method only. I saw no hidden fees except the exchange rate which was 1 AUD = 0.933421USD. I would need to check my credit card statement to be sure. I got a link to the downloadable page. I looked fine and had the income figures. I got your automated email thanking for the download and involvement. Aaron Poeze 21:28, 9 July 2008 (PDT)
Checking the Paypal payments received
Fridemar: Hello Aaron, this is what I received at Paypal. Note the high transaction costs. I thought E-Junkie had a method to avoid these high transaction costs for MicroPayment (e.g. by cumulating the amounts until a threshold, and then sending them). Besides that, I emailed a letter to the Paypal support, whether they offer a second MicroPayment account.

Aaron: Checking the credit statement has revealed a possible (because the payment is not yet 'processed') $AU1.00 charge connected to the $AU1.07 charge (ie $US0.99 times exchange rate) for a total of $AU2.07. I am not sure of the source of this extra dollar yet. It seems to originate from paypal. It does have a code so I might ask paypal the source if it remains after processing.

RayKings green light for the community initiative
Aaron:
RayKing also did this transaction successfully then? Aaron Poeze 11:35, 10 July 2008 (PDT)
What about this additional Motivation to accept the community invitation?
Immediately after the posting at the E-Junkie forum.
One day later Aboutus gets on top of Google (presumably by the stronger community approach)
