Hi Cecilia
It is such a pity your project was not funded. I only learned about the site yesterday and started looking at projects that were about to close. I saw your project and I was so inspired by it, I immediately sent a note to all my FB friends.
However, we didn't achieve the goal this time! ;-(
Will you be able to resubmit your project - even if you have to change the submission name or how you describe what the money will contribute to?
I believe that with the knowledge you've gained and some small changes (eg a bigger social media campaign, which your brother could support you develop) you'll definitely succeed!!!
Please let us know whet you intend to do from here.
All the best
Geri

This is such a wonderful project. I'm sorry to see the funding goal was not met. But don't give up! Sok sikert!
Creator Md. Muazzam B. Sham Khiruddin on June 19, 2012
It is very saddening to see this project failed...
I am sorry to see, Simonyi Cecilia, that this project didn't get funded.
[shakes head]
There is no need to thank me since I technically didn't pay anything here.
I hope you continue on with your dream and your project because frankly speaking I believe that this can help everyone a lot as I am a Student of Environment.
Sincerely,
Jam
Creator Freda Johnson on June 19, 2012
I'm SO sorry this didn't succeed. I also came on Karen's recommendation, and backed because I love your art work so much. I wish you all the best!
Creator Md. Muazzam B. Sham Khiruddin on June 19, 2012
If many people here...no need for everyone increase their pledge just a bit more (or a lot) this can work! Heck I don't even have IPad and I still try to pledge!
Please I beg of you people of Kickstarter, we can still try more in 6 hours!
[desperately increased pledge to $1000]
I have to lead by example! If you really think this is a worthwhile project, throw how much you think it worth!
Creator Simonyi Cecilia on June 18, 2012
Thank you all so much! Muazzam, that is very very generous of you...!!!
Creator Kristof on June 18, 2012
Come on people!! could this be reality?
Creator Md. Muazzam B. Sham Khiruddin on June 17, 2012
Drats...
Looks like this would be hard to achieve. People! This is a very good project that shouldn't be let die...we should try to increase our pledges the best we can! This is still possible!
If you can find a lot of people and spread more awareness...such a pity I don't have facebook.
[upgraded from $25 to $500]

Hi, Linda! Thank you so much! For the good laugh I had with your "process description", and for the encouragement. Glad you are here!!! :)
Creator Linda Gregory-Tex's Mutant League Ch.888 on June 12, 2012
Oh, and I also think your illustrations are gorgeous. I was torn between the exclusive drawing and the lantern. :)
Creator Linda Gregory-Tex's Mutant League Ch.888 on June 12, 2012
Hi! Karen from the Time Tribe KS mentioned you in her blog post and I came over to check it out and loved the concept. I always get a little twitchy when people start harping on sustainability and eco stuff, so I was skeptical at first. Honestly, I might not have even checked you out except for your title. It held so much promise and interest that I just had to check it out. Even if you turned out to be fanatical. But your description is clear and well thought out. It's obvious you have a passion and a purpose with this app. I am always encouraged to see apps that encourage people (not just children) to *think* and not just accept. I certainly hope this succeeds beyond your dreams!
Creator Simonyi Cecilia on June 7, 2012
Thanks, Mats! Karen is getting the bonus for sure! :)
Creator Mats Andren on June 6, 2012
