<p>As I read it - from your sig (unless there is something else) - <a href="Https://lotus.fm" rel="noreferrer noreferrer" target="_blank">Https://lotus.fm</a><br>
What you are doing is making the cash flow process a way bit
easier - common site and payment process and QR codes</p>
<p>Or is there more/different you've not shown</p>
<p>Interesting for a number of projects I'm on -- please explain -

<p>You do realize that that amounts for barely 4 hours of a
reasonable wage for a graphic artist<br>

<p>I'd hope to see something more, maybe at least a percent
