Hey hey

So I want to accept bitcoin donations on a website as simply as possible, what's the best way of doing this? My current thought is to generate a paper wallet offline and post the address/QR code on my site. Stick the paper copy somewhere safe and see what happens (not expecting many coins its not in a field populated by bitcoin nerds). Only worry here is that reusing addresses like this is not best practice.

Some things:

1) Javascript only, want to do this without using any server side code or other sites/services

2) Don't need regular access so cold storage of the private key is preferable.

Do I  roll with my idea or is there a better way?

Cheers

Look into using deterministic addresses.

Then you can store the seed offline on paper, and generate a new public address for each donor.
