Yes, see that sliver of orange on the bottom? That's progress!

Make the bar bigger. I just doubled yer damn donations and got zero pixels as a reward.

Thanks! I think I'll have to double the length. As it stands, I think it is $100 per pixel.

Maybe instead, the background could change from gray to Hubski blue if you've donated this year.

I'd make it a single / double pixel line stretching from the f of feed to the s of badges, below the letters. It's arount 400px wide on 1080p, which means that every $6 moves it a pixel.

I would also tell the user what part of the monthly goal they will be paying; it makes the comparison in value with Netflix and other media subscriptions easier.

I like this idea.

Naaah. Put on your gamification chops. I don't want a blue bar once, I want that thing to explode like fireworks when I give it money and droop like a tree in need of watering when I don't. Obviously, these are extremes you need not pursue but FFS give us a bone.

Ok. I'll ruminate on that.

strangely.... on dark (which is the ONLY acceptable visual theme) I can't see jack diddly bubkis.

BUT - now I do see the totals in text. so thanks!

Will fix that.

CORRECTION - I am an idiot. I can see it fine on Dark. I was looking in the wrong place.
