# hmmm, good point
perhaps set up an entry on /calendar for people to 'sign up' to show their interest in paying £2 a ticket for a raffle, and link up loads of piccies, and a link to your deviantart pages. That way you'll see the level of interest for doing it that way.

Then 'whore' the link here in your profile and sig, maybe on deviantart as well, and maybe even some blogs.

get rob to newsletter it (if poss.) with the promise that, say 25% goes to charity, so it's not just all going in your pocket, although you'll be getting paid for time spent and materials etc, (75%)

then, but a cheap book of raffle tickets, assign all those who pledged £ a number, then just do a webcam 'ticket out of hat' winner and stick it up on /links :)

/maybe needs more thought this, btu be willing to help if you wanted, seeing as I did suggest it


Of course, it all depends when you need the money by ;)

# You said £1-£2 a ticket,
but just knowing the effort put into it I'd easily pay a fiver for it.
And of course, he could advertise it on deviantart, and wherever else, the more tickets sold the better :)

# I was thinking most people would perhaps pay a fiver, but didn't like to say
£2 for 1 ticket or 3 for £5

# I would buy a good few tickets for sure
I would love to get my hands on that robot.

# [The raffle idea is a good one...
...but figures are not guaranteed.

I suggest setting up his own blog, setting up the goolge ads, and simply put a price on it.

The site should generate interest, especially if it's posted to digg or boinboing or make, etc...]
