# It is a Big Day Today

I’ve just received the first ever voluntary donation for the WordPress <a href="">plugin</a> and [theme](https://kaspars.net/WordPressTheme/WordPressTheme) work that I have done. And it feels really good, shall I say.

Thank you [Brooke](http://bewmedia.com/ "B.E.W. Media - they make pretty pictures and great big fancy websites") for supporting the whole open-source community, and it really *does* make a difference.
