Why not set up a Paypal donation page?<br>
<br>
I have one you can copy here:<br>

It took all of 5 minutes, and they take less % than Flattr.<br>
<br>
Regarding fraud, Paypal has a pretty reasonable policy; if it's not a<br>
"he said, she said" case, then they'll make you whole.<br>
<br>
Flattr is going to run into some problems with network effects - it's<br>
not a useful system until enough people are using it.  Paypal overcame<br>
this hurdle by targeting Ebay, and then getting acquired by Ebay.<br>
<br>
Disclaimer: I used to work for Paypal and still own stock.<br>
