I don't know PHP, and I don't know how sourceforge is set up, but
I have two questions which I feel are relevant:

1) There is a need to store the total amount of money; this has to be
   stateful.  Where will this amount be stored, and in what format?

2) Will the same URL be used, with a negative donation amount, when
   money is spent?  Or will a different URL or mechanism be used to
   deduct funds from the total amount available?

Once those are answered, the rest is cosmetic.  If there is a "goal"
amount, then the information could be presented with one of those
red thermometer-like displays showing the amount as a percentage
of the goal.  Or the amount could be registered in large ornate
digits.  Etc.  I'm not a graphic artist. :)
