That frontend is altar worthy. FANTASTIC.
[/quote]It is great, isn’t it? ChrisJ and I spent an hour going over how to maximize it’s potential, and we’re pretty excited about it.
Regarding development: First priority of order is getting the code base in a place where it can be compiled by anyone. Right now all the dependencies are scattered to the winds, and getting it compiling using GCC on windows is an experience and a half. It’s no wonder people are reluctant to get into the code base: It’s HARD to do! So I’m working on a Visual Studio Solution that will address all of this. It won’t do much for linux and mac users, but at the very least building on the most common platform will be supported out of the git-box.
Beyond that, there’s much more to come. But first things first. Anyone who has any experience building a QT wallet in VS, please PM me. :)

That looks amazing!
+1 to Kevlar too for helping out with the codebase, not an easy job at all. Shame my coding pretty much stops at Bash and Arduino, else I’d help out.

can’t-wait-to-see, great and +1 to both of you [b]kevlar[/b] and [b]chris[/b] if you weren’t there will have to invent you… and i forgot sev +1

Everytime I visit this forum, which is lots, something new is happening. I just love it so much :-*, I only wish I could code like @Kevlar ;) Before getting involved with Feathercoin I only ever used forums as a source of information to help me with what ever I was tinkering about with at the time, I never posted anything before, this place puts you at ease, you guys are great. I cannot offer much in terms of coding or website redesign all I can do is keep producing my Physical coins, offer encouragement and fight FTC corner on the troll box…
Love you Guys ;D+1 Kevlar, +1 Chrisj, +1 Sev :)
-
Wowsers… looks amazing :) Thanks Sev for the work you are putting into this.
+1 Kevlar :) and Chris :)
@netnerd, its nice to hear that you can find a home at Feathercoin :)
-
So there’s a technical newsletter as well, yay! It’s a good summary of the main aspects happening the last days.

Yeah, that front end is really, really smooth.
I love the photography capturing that rig in the photo, too.

Great work. Could we walk through taking Feathercoin 0.8.5 up to 0.8.6 version first? Anyone can compile the Linux version in a virtualbox. I thought, we can compile the windows version at the last minute, once its done?
I assume you can Diff from the Litecoin fork point and produce a patch of Feathercoin changes? or what…
https://github.com/wrapperband/Feathercoin-0.8.6.2
I’ll add anyone as a contributor, who wants. Any good changes can be passed to Bushstar for QA apporval.

Excellent stuff Chris. Thanks in a big way also to Kevlar and Severino’s hard work - as an investor I truly appreciate it.

[/quote]Yes in a good way :P its nice to see that in just a few years of flat design by Microsoft, everything starts to flatten itself…
Android, iOS, even websites

Nice looking redesign, I had seen other graphics in the old thread and this is much more preferable and professional looking! I’d only suggest not to lock it in to much to any other particular sites/services, e.g. “Buy Feathercoins” versus the Bittylicous direct linkage so we can plan on expansion and even offer up partnership more.
Thanks!

BBT will continue to mention FTC in each of our video’s along with showing us hashing FTC for additional feature-play. In addition, were thinking of getting a large vinyl cut for one of the mining rigs with the Feathercoin logo… :)
In other news one of our sponsors owns a online t-shirt company and made some new T’s for us. We will be sporting them in the next few episodes and they feature Feathercoin logo’s … just doing our part to bring awareness to the coin.
The background of our host is one of 14 years in big marketing, working for Anheuser-Busch/Inbev, the largest beer company in the world. One thing from experience is branding. Branding is a large part of success; lots of media, good presence online showing the logo/usage and the brand begins to gain awareness and by proxy gains value. Our entire team loves the coin and one day will get out to the UK for one of your meetups ;)
Oh btw, one of the T’s [url=http://hollowwear.com/store/index.php/miner-bit-coin-feather-coin-lite-coin.html]http://hollowwear.com/store/index.php/miner-bit-coin-feather-coin-lite-coin.html[/url]
If you scroll down, one of their other 4 designs. They are in BitPay’s Queue to accept Bitcoin, I am talking to him about accepting Feathercoin and how that would work. Stay tuned
