I also look at the donation as a Mental Health Awareness donation and I'm willing to share my story so people don't give up hope if they are struggling with mental health issues.  I have Borderline Personality disorder(better labeled as Emotional Regulation disorder in other parts of the world), major anxiety disorder, major depressive disorder, and ADD.  It was a long haul proving I can't work full time do to these issues but I accomplished it and I hope this gives others promise that their lives can turn astound for the better.

Any project the community brings up is acceptable!  I have 5 years of back pay coming my way so yes I am comfortable giving back to a community that gave a lot back to me in the way of friends, songs, ideas, and smiles.  The $500 could be split between projects as well.  Mainly we should determine which projects will get a "kick start" if you will do to lack of funds.

Hello~

My name is Corey and I have been a member on here since it began and was also very active when 8bc was around.  My life has always been a struggle and I've always lived on a very low income do to Mental health issues.  The chipmusic community and hobby has always been the music creation outlet I could afford and kept me smiling.  I turn 31 today and I was approved for disability after 10 years of trying and getting turned down twice.  I tried to kill myself 4 years ago because I felt like a burden on my family because of my mental health issues preventing me from having a decent job.  I've grown since then and I now have a 3 year old step daughter and a one year old boy that is my fiancée and mine in my life and I'm in a much better place.  As a thank you I wanted to donate $500 to a project in development and this is where you guys come in.  I just returned to the chipmusic community recently so I need to know what all is going on development wise and who would benefit from the donation.

FYI the first version of Kitsch's carts look like they're coming very soon.  Unless you need a cart immediately (and derps just happen to be available) I'd recommend waiting for Kitsch's offering.  Looks to have some really unique functionality.

Edit: I have a D'n'D cart and absolutely love it and highly recommend it for supreme stability.  Kitsch's carts look to be something we haven't seen before and that could mean features that you'll wish you had waited for.  Again, just FYI.

Where can one find more info on the kitschcarts?

Yeah I can't tell if people are talking about Kitsch specific carts or the GB everdrive that is coming out soon.  I have not seen anything about a specific cart made by kitsch.

I decided to look into ordering 10 drag and derp carts direct and was wondering if anyone had any interest in getting one for themselves.  I plan on keeping 2 and selling the other 8 to the community.  I'm located in KS, USA.

I never got the cart to register it's driver or show up in the flashing software but my cart definitely won't work with the LSDJ Rom that was already on it.

Scrambled as in LSDJ that was on it is now just gibberish Nintendo logos or if made past that nothing.  I used the driver sig program to no avail.  I usually don't have problems with such things as I was in the community with another handle in the 8bc days but can't get my carts driver installed no matter what I try so far.

@kitsch I'll report my issues to you as soon as I can.  I wanted to flash MGB on it to use with my arduinoboy and it ended up scrambling the cart.  Tried 4 different 64 bit windows computers on on 7 and one on 8 with no luck.

I'm looking to acquire a drag and derp cart as every computer near me is 64 bit and my EMS 64M  card is not working out.  Will trade it towards a drag and deep or pay outright for one.
