Page 2 of the Paypal Donation ProcessPage 2 of the Donations process for Paypal looks like this: Custom Payment OptionIf you choose the Custom Payment Page Style option, you can also customize the actual payment page to compliment the look of your site. This is optional, and I won't go into detail here as Paypal has a great tutorial already on how to do this. Just click the "learn more" link to view their tutorial.I will offer a couple comments however on their tutorial to help ease the way for you. Don't try to reference an image from your site for this. If you do, the image is not secure behind the https:// so your visitors will get a security error message. Not good when you are trying to get a payment. Instead, let Paypal create your image for you. When you allow Paypal to do the image for your, you can select the color you want, etc. but your email address will show as the header instead of your domain name. To customize this, I recommend you create a permanent wormhole account for donations within SVBI/Webmail. Then add this email to your Paypal account and use it as your reference email for donations. Then this email will be in the header (instead of whatever other email you set your Paypal account up with) and your visitors will be more comfortable knowing where their money is going ... and without a security notice! Payment Successful and Cancel PagesThis page is where you will paste in the urls of the two pages you created earlier for the "Successful Payment" and "Cancel Payment" pages.Next is the 2nd part of the same page.  If you are mailing/shipping a product, you will need the shipping address of the donator; if not, set it to the No Shipping Needed option. If you want or need additional info from your buyer, select YES for the Additional Info section and put in a short title that explains what you need. Don't forget to select the email you want to use for your donations. Don't hit the "create button now" button yet ... we still have one more section to do here ... Payment Data Transfer ... in the section right under the "Successful Payment Url" ... see the next page for that one!
