You guys need to pick a readable font and stick with it.
Also, the use of multiple different large type size fonts in the same announcements and "Tech Community" Posts looks armature and is just not very aesthetically pleasing. I'm sure that has turned people away, in spite of the new creative initiatives you are putting in place.
The whimsical designs here just don't go along with the notion of an up and coming professional and stable crypto-currency. I know Testing Crypto is trying hard, and I applaud his efforts, but remember for the new potential "investors/backers/coin holders" that you are seeking to gain through the giveaways and Twitter campaign; "You will never get a second chance to make a first impression".
I'm not trying to be insulting, I'm just stating a truth that needs to be addressed, since your guys' plan seems to be starting to come together.
Sorry for that, I'm just testing them out & was hoping someone would jump in to say something about one they like. I'm more into the coding of the OP, designs are going to be non-professional from me & hope we can get someone who can add some professional designs to TECH. I'll try to stick with just one, but don't want it to be all up to me on designs & would like the community to add their opinions on what to stick with ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Please have someone remake your graphics. Your current theme is an overusage of cliche photoshop filters and graphics that look like they've been upscaled from low-dpi sources which means that it's been cobbled together piecemeal through a google image search. Also, if you're going to bother including blocks of text in your marketing imagery instead of written on the forum, then at least make it legible.
Thank you for your opinion, I'll look into changing it. I would like to hear others thoughts & opinions first though, being the development designer. Actually more of the OP coder if that's what you'd like to call it, never claim to be a professional designer (I give it my best though). **volunteering to rebuilding TECH for the community, no bounty paid

What's the point of this? I don't see much of anything described in detail in the ANN besides the retweet giveaway. :/
You'll have to be a little more specific on "what's the point of this?, the ANN has a multitude of info in it. Let us know what's missing, it will be added right away ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Do you enjoy new technology & innovation? Who doesn't right, but some prefer no change "<" change & who is it to show them it's worth the change? You reading this, make something good out of this & help (everyone has some kind of talented ability of knowledge). The possible ways to help are endless, many areas as simple as "have you heard of alternative applications..."? This could be embedded into almost any type of work (countless talented abilities of knowledge needed to build this into something), just have to see the future of coding (open source) & hardware = IoT.

Things are still happening. the wheels behind the scenes are turning strategically.
I am still accumulating coins, and will continue to raise the floor on a daily basis, to help fund the projects that are in the works. When it comes time, many of the coins that I am accumulating will be strategically sold (not dumped) on the exchange, in hopes of raising even more BTC to really shoot our programs into orbit. and also to help increase liquidity. Currently, I own about 12k, yet that number is set to diminish do to an ongoing commitment.
Tomorrow, I will raise the floor to 11k. Friday, 12k. Saturday....... well you get the picture.
Couldn't have said it better myself, strategically sold (not dumped) is the way to trade & grow the TECH community. If we can get enough holders to help stake & only sell small amounts (expanding the amount of TECH users & blockchain), then the coin will be of great use with certain merchants.

hey everyone, just want to break a couple things down for you today.
1. as you may have seen, we got fairglu to add TECH to CryptoID.info 2. I continued the discussion with fullhdpixel today, and based on his experience not only with web development, but also with API experience, I feel it is in our best interest to work with him moving forward. The reason for this is because our stake2win program, and other unmentioned non technical features will need to have full web/wallet integration via api's I also asked him about joining the team as a full member after explaining part of what I wanted to do, and he said that it was a good time for this, but he needed a bit of time to make some commitment.
so I am putting together a package based off of Testing Cryptos new OP, plus some of the other features we are talking about, and said that he will have the website ready for Sunday - just in time for Tech Tuesday. I will be sending him .25 BTC tonight, and full development wwth api integration based on what I had described is max 1 BTC
I know Testing Crypto stated that he was willing to do it, but he is doing a great job with everything else, so the more that we can take off of his plate, the more he can get done in other areas.
3. We are working on additional incentives to add into the Stake2Win program, and I cannot wait to make the announcements once the details are finalized.
Sounds like a good plan to me, I'm going to try & have a minimum of around 10 social sites for community growth. We can build from there, but would like to find as many marketcap/chart & graph sites. Watching each of the HOT sites for a while now & none of them have the same info. Also seeing several great news sites, will find the active ones & keep them in mind for TECH down the road ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Gotcha. I will post an address in a bit and get this going.
by the way, you are doing a lot of work, and it is appreciated. Thanks.
I've been looking for a coin to put 10-16hrs in a day on (not be the only one making improvements though & have done that in the past with a coin where the Dev thought it was ok for one person to do everything for months <different BCT user>), being a Tech/Entrepreneur for over a decade & will stick it out with TECH. If this coin does keep an active team, I will do everything in my power to help anywhere possible ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

cryptoid block explore that provides rich list, etc, is .3 btc. similar to this. https://chainz.cryptoid.info/xc/#!rich this has been one of my favorites for all coins. IMO, because this has been one of the most established sites, I would prefer to go with this explorer. Give me some input, but most likely, I may decide to send the funds over to get this site operational ASAP, and just put up my address for donation. I'd say that's one of the best, but it's up to you if you would like to pay .3 BTC for one or contact 2 or 3 of them & have a few block explorers for the same price (always better to have a few of them). That would be my choice, but I will support anything you decide to do ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) P.S. Please jump on a few of the other sites, CryptoCoinTalk & the new social sites added to OP

Can someone explain to me how stake weight and network weight are related?
Your weight = your hashrate/confirmations Network weight = everyone stakings hashrate/confirmations Not sure if that's the best way to explain it, but hope it helps ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

In my opinion, adding the name to the logo isn't professional (not that I'm a pro) & it will be the only logo of it's kind (PCB design). I'm not 100% sure, but having tested & watched over 1000+ coins & not seeing a PCB logo design (other than this one & maybe a few with little PCB design to it)? The logo will be known as TECH coin, but that's just a rough draft & I might try to upgrade it later down the road (as cecilbdemented asked about a GIF image with pulsing circuits). Which I don't have the right software at the moment to create that, but will work on getting it ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Edit: I'll work on trying to create text around the outer rim of the logo though & would prefer not to create anything to good, leaving an option for improvements is always the #1 goal ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

I like the new op. thank you!
we can always add and change as needed.
It is about time to get this show on the road. If we sit around for much longer, we are certain to die out.
all interest will be gone and it will be hard to try to get people back on board.
Who is with me.
Lets start with that new thread, and build.
Thanks, I just created a new logo for TECH as well (requested by cecilbdemented). Just an idea, but I can change it to anything ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
