Famicomi: AGA im already getting money to go to australia
AGA: so why do you need money for toys?
Famicomi: because the money for australia is seperate
Wow. I need this kind of financial backing. You got some balls having someone back your trip to Australia AND still ask for more money for other things from "peers." Good work dudemanbro.
Get a fucking job.

But jokes aside, the way donations work is that you first build up good will, either from being repeatedly and demonstrably awesome, or sacrifice something that would be of service to a community. Begging is tres gauche.
This post is the equivalent of walking into a homeless shelter and asking for money.
All seriousness aside, though, when Smiletron did a Kickstarter asking for donations because he was down on his luck and needed money to replace his equipment, he had 2 things going for him:
- A reputation for making great music and releasing it for free, even when he could have sold it (we all had his music in our iTunes by that time, and loved it)
- An offer to everyone that donated money, that each person would receive a download containing all of Smiletron's completed works so far, which was arguably worth paying for in itself
Basically it boils down to this:
If you want donations, you have to show people why you deserve them. whether it be dire need or pure talent, people need to see a reason that their money should move from their pocket to yours.
So... what are your selling points?
