There has been some long winded plans of a larger overhaul of KDE.org's 
visuals and it might be a good time to revisit those and starting with 
individual pages.

Good book!

<blockquote> The text is still long and boooring, given this is a place when we pay.

 My proposal with altered IA:

 ---------------------------------------------------------------
 == Donate to KDE -- it's easy and fast! ==

 (.) (Recommended) Recurring donation: [personal] or [corporate]

 ( ) One time donation:  [_30_] € [Donate]


 * Is this safe? [about KDE e.V.]
 * Why we need your support?
 * Tax deduction
 * Other ways to donate
 ---------------------------------------------------------------

 The last 4 lines are links.

 BTW, reported 8 years ago or so: links are poorly visible, either
 lighten them or underline.

The less text the better. When people come to that page they know why
they came, so make it easy for them to give.

Some links are fine just in case they have the memory-span of a gnat.

 This is still not linked from the main page because
   * We want your input
   * We need to make the radio button to choose between one time and recurring
 less ugly

 Opinions?

 Also if some deisgn/web guru can help us with making the radio buttons be
 nicer (our idea is to make them more like buttons) it'd be great.

 Thanks,
