The TF2 donation page will now be linking to http://www.aprilon.net/vip/tf2/ (they will be able to see the benefits and then proceed to the said page).
The page (http://www.aprilon.net/vip/tf2/) will be able to automatically fetch your Steam ID upon load, and then let you select if the information is correct.
If there are more results, a list of the results will be displayed, and then the user can select whatever is correct. If neither, then they can specify it manually.
Hope this should make it easier for people that doesn't have a clue what a Steam ID is, nor know how to get it (and amazingly don't want to read a short manual.

On the guide you made on how to get your ID using the HLStatX thing, you should add a short line saying it'll only display your name if you have already played on the server. As unimportant as it might seem, there'll be idiots who will bombard your pm inbox with questions as to why they OMG CANT FIND MY NAME!11111

Seems like I have to re-code the donation pages. The fact that it may become a pain to change the MOTD pictures and so on is inconvenient. So, I'll probably make a php script that'll do this for me (creating a MOTD).

Right, just donated successfully, but there's a small problem with the paypal link. It links to paypal in the norwegian language, might be a bit easier to have it link to a english version

Not sure what's setting it to annoying Norwegian. Silly PayPal, lol.
Anyway, I took the time to re-do the TF2 donation page again:

Finally fixed a HOWTO page for the features:
