Donationcoin.org is live with a new website. Have a look.
Also, seed.dontioncoin.org is up.
No connections
The seed is up, it resolves to 108.61.216.195 if you want to addnode. Here are a few others I know are up most all the time:
85.236.188.28
62.210.206.140
82.172.160.16
74.5.143.80
Sorry you are having difficulties. A new version of the wallet is in the works that will elevate this problem.
EDIT: Sorry, I should have explained. I notice your bitcointalk account is rather new and you might not know. To addnode:
Open the wallet.
Select 'Help' then 'Debug window' from the menubar.
Select the 'Console' tab.
In the console, type "addnode 108.61.216.195 add" and press enter.
Repeat that for all the mentioned nodes.
You can also edit your .conf file to include "addnode=108.61.216.195" and all the above-mentioned IPs. This way, your wallet will search those IPs at launch every time. But, if you follow the above steps, and connections are made which they will, the peers should be stored in your peers.dat file for next time you launch.
Again, sorry you are having problems connecting. I hope I have helped.
EDIT 2: I notice a new peer! I hope it is you!
