Advanced Tip Jar
Current version: 2.4

Been looking for an Advanced Tip Jar that doesn't lag out your Club/Business? Need one with member-only or public access? Do you want to collect commission from tips or give them all away? How about the ability to split the remainder of a tip with as many avatars as you want? Do you want the option of displaying the avatar's profile picture OR any picture of your choice? Want to show YOUR club's logo when no one is logged in? Then this tip jar is what you've been looking for.
