Good morning everyone.  

At On-disk.com, we have a history of coming up with creative solutions.  

For some distros, like the SuperGamer [1], the project is so new that they
don't have everything in place just yet.  However, since we pay out on a
monthy basis and/or once an account reaches $250US, they can start earning now
knowing it will be a little while before the money needs to be transfered.  

Then for projects like Fedora, we were able to create the Sponsored Media
Project [2].  

As you may know, Fedora can't accept Cash donations.  But at the time, their
Free Media project was having trouble meeting demand.  We were able to turn
disc orders into Free Media so that others could still participate.  

If we need to put our heads together to hash out a solution just for the Open
Clip Art project, then let's do it.  Just let me know what I can do for you.
