o Adds a paypal donation field to each users profile
o Adds a clickable beer icon to take user to donation page.
o Supports Languages
- English/English-utf8
- English_British/English_British-utf8
I welcome translations for other languages. Please post the translated language strings in the Support Topic.

Installation
Simply install the package to install on the SMF Default Core Theme ONLY.
All other themes will require manual edits for Profile.template.php and Display.template.php
AND you will need to place a copy of the image buymeabeer.gif in the image folder of each of your themes (Themes/{themename}/images/)

Open Themes/{themename}/Profile.template.php, and FIND:

// All the messenger type contact info.

ADD BEFORE:

// Paypal Address For 'Buy Me A Beer Mod
echo ' <tr>
<td width="40%"><b>', $txt['buymeabeer'], ': </b><div class="smalltext">', $txt['buymeabeer_desc'], '</div></td>
<td><input type="text" name="buymeabeer" size="24" value="', $context['member']['buymeabeer']['name'], '" /></td>
</tr><tr>
<td colspan="2"><hr width="100%" size="1" class="hrcolor" /></td>
</tr>
';


Open Themes/{themename}/Display.template.php, and FIND:

// Show online and offline buttons?
if (!empty($modSettings['onlineEnable']) && !$message['member']['is_guest'])

ADD BEFORE:

// SHOW BUY ME A BEER
if (!$message['member']['is_guest'] && $context['user']['is_logged'] && !empty($message['member']['buymeabeer']))
{
$priceofbeer = 5 ; // In US Dollars no cents
echo'<br/>
<a href="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_xclick&business=' , htmlentities ($message['member']['buymeabeer'], ENT_NOQUOTES, "UTF-8") , '&item_name=' , htmlentities ($txt['pleasebuymeabeer'], ENT_NOQUOTES, "UTF-8") , '&amount=', $priceofbeer ,'%2e00&no_shipping=0&no_note=1&tax=0&currency_code=USD&lc=US&bn=PP%2dDonationsBF&charset=UTF%2d8" rel="nofollow" title="', $txt['buymeabeeralt'] ,'"><img alt="', $txt['buymeabeeralt'] ,'" border="0" src="', $settings['images_url'] , '/buymeabeer.gif" border="0"/></a><br/>';
}


If your theme has its own versions of the language files Modifications.english.php and/or Modifications.english-utf8.php, OR if your using a language other than those supported (listed above) by the mod then you will need to copy the language strings into each custom version of those files.
$txt['pleasebuymeabeer'] = 'Buy Me A Beer';
$txt['buymeabeeralt'] = 'Buy Me A Beer Through Paypal';
$txt['buymeabeer'] = 'PayPal Address For Users To Buy You A Beer';
$txt['profile_error_bad_paypal'] = 'The PayPal Address you entered was not a valid email address';
$txt['profile_error_paypal_taken'] = 'The PayPal Address you entered is already in use by another member';
$txt['buymeabeer_desc'] = 'Allows users to reward you for your posts';

Customization
$5 for a beer?  Seems reasonable, but if you want to change it you can do so easily by editing the Display.template.php and FIND the line below and REPLACE the 5 with another digit (must be a whole number, no decimals).
$priceofbeer = 5 ; // In US Dollars no cents
