Quick note on your website: the link to the "Collideascope Developers Network" (what is that anyway?) appears to be broken.

Collideascope Developer's Network is still a work in progress, if there's a sub-domain that I've created that isn't working I replace halcyondr with hdr to remind me that it needs making.

It's a play on words, kind of... Collide, idea, scope; collideascope. It's sort of like a public, open forum where normal people can post ideas for software, talk directly to developers, and also a place where developers can meet other developers organised in what language they program in, so they can expand their knowledge by talking with, say, other RB developers and other C developers, chatting to people who program in different languages to see if it's for them; if it gets big enough (i.e. over ten developers :P) then I want to hold an annual conference in some kinda town hall and give the organisation a real sense of community.

You might also get a free shirt 8)

You'll need...

a) an app or game you've made
b) Paypal or some other money transfer method
c) how much money you want from each sale

...and that's it. At the end of the month, I look at the books and see how much is owed to you, I pay you; everyone's happy. If you're wondering how I can possibly earn any money this way, I charge the customer the commission, not the developer. It's done in pound sterling; I add an extra £1 to however much you want from each app, and each time you upload a new app that sells, the fees go down by 10 pence; so all your apps drop in price each time you upload a new one which sells a copy. That pound pays for things like hosting costs (which I'm already in debt for :P), advertising, my time and hopefully enough cash to do cool stuff with.

That might seem Bill-Gates-software-baronish, but developers could buy heroin with the money they make and I probably wouldn't care. I'd likey be concerned, but they're your veins and it's your money. 8)

Oh, and return for that, you get a free shirt. And a heroin addiction.

You read it here first: Telstar's new developer program is responsible for millions of heroin related deaths.

Uh oh... who's going to develop all the software now that all the developers are chasing the dragon? We'll all go back to the stone age!

EDIT: When I first read "Telstar's new developer programme" I read it as "Telstar's new deal". Hmm, I hope I don't turn into Roosevelt. I need to sleep :P
