I think the new logo and revised OP look outstanding.  Wulfcastle clearly put a ton of work into all this and has proven his ability to bring success in the past.  I think he will be an incredibly valuable long term fellow to have on board.  I would definitely make some kind of tweak to change the logo noticeably though.  Controversy has a way of overshadowing progress; let's do what needs to be done and put criticisms to rest quickly so we can move on with the full confidence of the crypto community.  Once the logo had been tweaked I would agree that he definitely deserves a bounty for his work.  I'd be willing to donate some fresh as well, maybe after the revision you could post your address for anyone else feeling appreciative as well.

I am also very happy to report that my request for Freshcoin to be added to Coin Gecko has been approved! Not sure when it will be up but if anyone happens to see it up past post a note here in the thread.  I'm very curious to see what rank it is under their algorithm.

In the meantime, why not take some quick, easy steps right now?  I've just emailed CoinGecko about adding FRSH.  This is a coin ranking site that I am seeing cited more and more.  They're still in beta, but I think getting on here will add some great exposure, even if it's close to the bottom of the list.  Another nice thing about CG is that they don't rank only by volume or market cap, but they use a unique algorithm that takes over a dozen factors into account to create a unique CoinGecko score.  So a coin can still rank highly even if their price has recently taken a hit.

If even a dozen of us takes 1-2 minutes to email them, I think there's a very good chance it may be added.  Someone in the BC forum said they simply emailed them a request and they added it very quickly, so it's worth a try.  Crowdsourcing at its finest.

Savale, I don't have a ton of free time, but as both an investor and enthusiast of Freshcoin, I'd be happy to do a basic consultation and marketing outline for you pro bono if you're interested.  Just shoot me a PM when you get some time.  Despite the current miner dump driving the price down, it's been a long time since I've felt this confident about a cryptocurrency.  At this point, I am totally dedicated to the cause.

This.  

I don't know how large the team is, but I'd strongly recommend getting a dedicated expert for both marketing and business development.

EDIT: I have undergrad studies in both, btw.  Just throwing that out there.

I'm not familiar with the cost of mining myself, but I think a lot of these miners that are panic dumping are going to feel very foolish once the big dump is over. 

Also, savale, I would STRONGLY recommend updating your website and posting the exchanges FRSH is available on.  Someone looking at it right now may be mislead to think it's still in the planning phase and not available for sale yet.  Getting the exchange links up there will help with liquidity and get us past this dumping period much quicker.

Hi savale, I have sent you a request to join, I hope you will consider me.

Thanks for the info.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to go make some huge buy orders.

Oh wow, I looked into Vertcoin before but didn't hear about this until now.  Is this feature active now, or in the future?  If future, when is the ETA for this to be implemented?

Oh my, I must have misunderstood some of the prior posts, I didn't realize there was a 1% fee to send.  Good point, if there's one thing other than development issues that will hold it back, the 1% is definitely it.

EDIT: Don't get me wrong, 1% isn't high, but COMPARED to the miniscule send fees for any other altcoin it might be hard for the average enthusiast to swallow.  One idea is to go the route of what poker rooms do for high stakes games and implement a "cap".  Basically, there is a flat fee, but to avoid things like paying a $100 fee when you make $10k you would limit it to a certain dollar amount.

I've lost count of all the coins I've researched over the years.  And I have to say, this is one of the most promising I have seen.  Great features, professional marketing materials, and never before have I seen a dev with such instant communication, answering all questions within hours.  Do a Twitter search for #FreshCoin and #FRSH, there is a lot of excitement and confidence over there as well.  Same thing in Bter chat and elsewhere, overwhelmingly positive and strong confidence.  The social sending feature is also a killer app, in my opinion.  Shortly after Dwolla (Paypal competitor with lower fees and more versatile) introduced their technology to be able to tweet someone money on Twitter, they almost immediately started to get a momentum of press following that; I think it will be the same sort of reception in the crypto community, once it is actually a live feature you'd better believe everyone is going to be talking about this.

Good point.  If the music can go viral, the coin will get some welcome exposure.
