We've actually have a list of the designers on the forums. Just check the ANN threads and see which one you like the most. If I had to choose one, personally, I would go with SFR10.

wait i am still confused. so can you only gain 1 activity score each day? what’s the minimum amount of time it takes to become a full member?

You gain a maximum of 14 activity per two weeks period so If you have activity = posts and you post 14 more in a day, you'll get all the activity points in one day.

As for the minimum period to become a Full member then that's 4.5 months as long as you have the required merits of course.

Thank you hula, very kind of you.

I did resend email to VirWoX using both emails, no reply as yet.

There is a step by step tutorial with images for the exchanges I suggested you to use, and a video for Virwox as well: https://99bitcoins.com/sell-bitcoins-with-paypal-convert-your-bitcoins-to-usd/

Hi OmegaStarScream, I followed the instructions (address above) using VirWoX, ie bitcoin (£5.10 worth) to VirWoX. Exchange to SLL then to $5 USD (still have SLL = 207.16), USD withdrawn to Paypal = $3.90 USD. All seems well so far. Will check tomorrow to see if Paypal account still up and running.
Thank you again.

As you will notice though, there will be limits which will only fade away after a period of time (few months) and the fees are not the best either but apart from that, It's a very reputable site. I still suggest trading with trusted individuals If you want to make this as profitable as possible
5104  Economy / Exchanges / Re: How do Bitcoin ATM's work? on: November 12, 2018, 06:14:59 AM
The process may vary from an ATM to ATM but it usually they scan the QR code of your receiving address from your phone so the funds will be directly sent to your wallet and you don't need to import or sweep them.
5105  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Which is the best online wallet for bitcoin? on: November 11, 2018, 07:25:33 PM
Forget about online wallets and exchanges, these are not safe to use and they are always targeted for hacks and there is also a possibility of having your account closed/banned. Go with a desktop wallet like Electrum where you have full control over your funds/private keys.
5106  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What are your experiences with Bitcoin ATMs on: November 11, 2018, 04:43:17 PM
I used Bitaccess's ATMs more than once and I had a very good experience. I did run into an issue where I basically gave them bitcoins and never received the cash for it but after contacting them through email, they were very professional about it and refunded me in a matter of hours. So, as long as you don't mind the high fees, I think you should try them.
5107  Economy / Services / Re: [5$] Changing Skype avatar on: November 09, 2018, 03:39:54 PM
Maybe you need to change the big avatar as well? Try deleting the data in the profile_attachments column too.

Taken from : https://superuser.com/questions/700556/where-does-skype-store-the-avatar-pictures-of-my-contacts

Another thought, if this still doesnt work, maybe instead of NULL, try replacing it with another blob. Its possible a null value triggers a call to skype servers to fetch the image on load. Just a personal idea though, not sure.

I've actually started from that stackexchange post but I couldn't manage to get it working. I mean, you can get the pictures but editing them doesn't do much.

I have tried to change basic details such as the mood text etc. just to make sure I didn't do anything wrong but that didn't work either, the messages are still the same and now looking at the file before being edited (because I took a backup of main.db) apparently, It hasn't been edited since June which is around the time I installed Skype on my computer so for some reason, maybe nothing is being retrieved locally after all.
5108  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: HELP! What Trading Signals or what Script should I subscribe to? on: November 09, 2018, 11:26:51 AM
"signal" is a pretty word for a "pump group".
a couple of years ago the pump groups were very popular. we even had a couple of topics here on bitcointalk. I believe one of them was called "ryan pumper". but eventually people figured out that these things were big scams so they stopped giving their money to them willingly.
that meant they had to change their ways. so they started masking the fact that they are pump groups and started using things like "signal groups" as a way to get the same old attention and abuse the fact that this market is filled with newcomers who have no idea what to do and need someone to take their hands and walk them through things.

In CryptoPing's case, I don't think that's a realistic scenario because they push updates very often.

From what I know about them, It's simply an intelligent bot that works based on that trading volume and how it increases etc.

Thanks!  DO you know anything about this guy specifically? 

If you're referring about the guy's YouTube channel then no, I have never heard him or seen him on YouTube before so I can't give an opinion.

Is it me or If we exclude the lime green used, we'll have an exact copy of Coinomi?

It also doesn't matter much If you're using ElectrumX or anything else as can't verify your claims without an open source code.
5110  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Payment method on: November 09, 2018, 09:31:32 AM
You could go with reputable payment processors such as BitPay (BTC, BCH) - Coinbase (BTC, BCH, ETH) - CoinPayments (All the major coins +1000 other altcoin).

I'm not sure about Coinbase but for BitPay and CoinPayments there are fees for every transaction that is made. Alternatively, you could use BTCPayServer and run everything yourself to avoid the fees etc. (but you'll clearly have to pay for the servers to run the full node etc.)

May I ask if it's possible to have the last edited option added?
So users would be able to check when last a post was edited.

It's actually possible to do, just put your mouse in the thread's creation date and It will show you when it was last updated:

5112  Economy / Services / [5$] Changing Skype avatar on: November 08, 2018, 11:40:11 AM
From my understanding, Skype keeps everything locally after your first login and then keep updating it.

I know that the database can be found in %AppData%/Skype. I opened main.db using an SQLite database browser. It worked fine and I can see the details and update them just fine.

The images are stored as BLOB (binary large object) in the table contacts (column 'avatar_image'). I tried to set that to NULL, saved the file, restarted Skype but nothing happened.

If I open the main.db file again (after restarting skype etc.), I can see that the image is still set to NULL. So if it is set to null, where is Skype getting the image from?

In short, I want someone who could give me a solution to change a profile picture (inappropriate one) of a contact of mine or simply remove it just so I can't see it anymore.
5113  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: HELP! What Trading Signals or what Script should I subscribe to? on: November 08, 2018, 10:40:13 AM
I think that CryptoPing is the most popular signaling service out there so maybe It's worth looking at it. It supports multiple exchanges and also multiple platforms to send you the signals (Slack, Telegram, Discord etc.)

I used it back before their ICO and It wasn't that bad, It simply wasn't for me because I had to deposit money into multiple exchanges and wait for confirmation etc. so you have to be ready at all times If you want to make a profit but apparently, they've improved since then.

It looks good, good work. As a suggestion, I think it would better to make the transactions fill the whole screen and then get it emptied once It's full instead of hitting the surface for a sec and then disappearing.
5116  Economy / Service Discussion / Blockstream's new blockexplorer on: November 07, 2018, 03:11:19 PM
A few hours ago, Blockstream announced that their new blockexplorer is live.

For now, it doesn't have as many features as the other explorers out there but It's definitely looking good. What are your thoughts?
5117  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum wallet issue-not showing amount on: November 07, 2018, 11:53:43 AM
Take any of the addresses you have and that has bitcoins in them and paste them here (If you see any balance, then you still have your bitcoins): https://www.blockchain.com/explorer

If trying what ETFbitcoin suggested didn't work. Try to create a new wallet (not restoring a wallet), just a new one and see If it gets connected to a server or not just to confirm that it has nothing to do with the current wallet.

5118  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum wallet issue-not showing amount on: November 07, 2018, 11:30:41 AM
It's just a connection problem probably, as long as you can see the funds in a block explorer, you're fine. Try to click on the red icon on the bottom right => Server => Uncheck 'Select server automatically'. Find another server on that list, right-click 'choose as server' and see If that works.
5119  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Where is exchange that listing fee is cheap? on: November 07, 2018, 10:56:32 AM
Most of the big exchanges don't have a fixed rate for listing so I don't think you would find such a list.  I think you should target decentralized exchanges like IDEX, they tend to list for free or charge a very small fee.

Bittrex is also not charging any fees for listing coins but unless your coin has a strong a userbase and will be profitable for them, they probably won't list it.

Or you could check Yobit and similar exchanges (by similar I mean exchanges with technical problems) but If you care about your project, you shouldn't do that as YoBit has a very bad reputation (scam accusations etc.)
5120  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: 2014 Online wallets? on: November 07, 2018, 09:49:10 AM
From the basic design, It's possible that it's from BTC-E yes, they rebranded to WEX.NZ so you can try accessing your account from there but I'm honestly not sure If the users got their funds back because there were hacked in the past and you also have Bittrex which was founded in 2014 and still exists.
