Title: A Much Needed Makeover: A New Look for MyBitcoin.com
Post by: Bruce Wagner on November 24, 2010, 03:59:17 AM
I see that -- it changed right before my very eyes, as I was using it...

MyBitcoin.com has taken my advice...  and made a much needed improvement to their appearance.

I emailed them last week and said, "MyBitcoin is Ugly!   It's needs a fresh modern look.  Simple single-color rectangular buttons that LOOK and work well on Android / iPhone smartphones."

Well, they did it.

I must say, BRAVO MyBitcoin.   You look better than ever!

:)

Now, I won't be embarrassed to tell my friends -- who are business professionals -- that, "Yes. This IS the easiest web interface for using Bitcoin."   ( Before it looked so amateurish... like a drunk teenager had designed it in an hour. lol  )

They say.....  Perception is Reality.

It's IMPORTANT that our tools, and sites, etc. LOOK MODERN, sophisticated, new, hip, and professionally designed (even when we create them ourselves over a weekend, like I did with BitcoinMe.com)....

MtGox.com is always winning high praise for it's sleek modern design too.  I'm proud to show it to my friends too.  (I just wish it were slightly easier for non-tech newbies to use as a primary account and payment system - like MyBitcoin is.)

Bravo Guys!

But the buttons and login screen still sucks. More work to do.

IMHO, most if not all bitcoin sites stink. 

bitcoin.org is the best.  Every other site needs work including mine.

Bitcoin.org is too technical.

I think bitcoinwatch and bitcoincharts are excellent at what they do. Mtgox is possibly the most beneficial site right now, but the execution isn't flawless by any means.

I agree. I can't send a layperson to it and expect them to grasp the concept.

BitcoinMe.com (http://bitcoinme.com) makes a great attempt at explaining what it is. I've started sending people to it.

http://ubitio.us is potentially one of the most benefical site. All we need is good uploaders that provide us with new materials that aren't "pirated".
