Hey guys
Just a question as to why the Donating cup is a wad of money smoking? It's only just occured to me that this is promoting smoking as being 'cool' or 'hip'.
And for this reason I want a cup which promotes flower picking and being nice. Not something that associates money with a cancerous product.
Thank you for reading
Looks like the stack of money is actually smoking weed lol. I'm also still not sure if the white part on the left is his hand or his beard. I assume it's his beard, but there is a chance that he just has one arm aswell.
Idk the donator cup is pretty weird, oh well :P

This is not an Oh well moment JJ! This is serious!
Oh lawld, I thought the white part was his arm.
My world has been ruined.
Mind. Blown. Always thought that was some sort of weird arm… But now that I look at it, it's definitely his beard. However, I think the cup is appropriate as money is indeed cancerous.

Please stop it, the world is hypocritical enough.

Smoking is only cool if you look as classy Humphrey Bogart. Most smokers look wasted.
Pic for referenceAnd well, how the donator cup looks doesn't matter at all.

The donator cup isn't Humphrey Bogart. That is the problem

…further confirming that the cup doesn't promote smoking. Problem?

Maybe we are all looking at this completely reversed. "Donating promotes smoking" might not be the case. What if, Smoking promoted donating? As you have already stated, smoking is generally thought of to be cool and/or hipster, so wouldn't it seem logical that the human need for attention forces users into donating?
If this is the case, then the donator cup should be changed regularly to attract crowds from the current hot-topic. Therefore, it is safe for me to propose that until at least the end of October, the donator cup be changed to a .gif of the dancing gangnam style guy.

The real issue is finding an admin willing to change it all the time and designers.
