I was so happy to find out that it is now possible to donate to DOSBox via Bitcoin (since I don't agree to pay paypal fees while making donations), but I barely noticed the donation address (only for the fact that I know how a bitcoin address looks like I was able to figure it out). I would suggest that you could make it a little bit more visible or obvious for visitors.

Thanks,
Golobulus

You were a able to find it, because it looks like a bitcoin address.
The address on the site is merely a way of donating if you want. I don't want to turn it into an advertisement.

Thanks for responding!

Yes, I understand your point. I guess what I meant was that it's not in the right section - if someone wants to make a donation they don't go to the "Crew" section - the reason I went there was that I saw the link to it on the Bitcoin forum (the DOSBox thread). If you click "Support this project" or "Donate" there is nothing there about Bitcoin. I don't think this would be seen as an advertisement (one could say that you are advertising Paypal right now). Of course it's up to you, but I think some people may never find out and thus, never donate.

Anyway, thanks for your response again.
Cheers
