New description:

 Add a simple implementation of a system for donations to producers. Those
 users with a PayPal account should be able to add their PayPal email
 address to their profile on Plumi sites.

 If a member has added their PayPal email address to this field, a Donate
 to Producer button will be displayed on their /author page. It will also
 be displayed on the video/view page of any of their videos.

 The graphic can be created once this functionality has been implemented
 (note: should be relatively discreet).

 This will mean that videomakers can use Plumi as a fundraising tool for
 future productions, and allow other members/users of the site to make a
 financial contribution to their video work. It should also be a good
 selling point for Plumi software as far as independent videomakers are
 concerned, as they are always strapped for cash.

 We can add other services to the list of supported services as we go
 forward - PayMate for Australia, Chip-In etc.
