Random color Random quotation Random picture Initial seed value?

Yep, Leonardo Da Vinci. Here's an update with a little addition from Albert Einstein Would be neat to have a different quote from a long list of quotations. Maybe perhaps a picture of a different famous person in science or math history that would randomly be printed. Maybe start a collect-ability series? Funded note is worth more to a collector than a spent note? This has potential! Thoughts?

What about people with just black and white ink jet printers AND single color toner laser printers?

Perhaps you should rephrase the question to "No, I would still not pay artists for RECORDED music." since I frequent the clubs on a weekend basis and spend more on a weekend than I do recorded music.
Live entertainment is where the money is now so I feel that the pool is not fairly weighted.

Would the private and public key need to be spelled out or are we just assuming that QR-Codes will be the norm.

I don't recognize who this is, can you spoil? Leonardo DiVinchi I think

This game is making the miners richer! This game needs to stop! LOL

If blockchain.info came out with an extension that works with their wallet service, I would download it!

Mike I will work on something for you. I see what you want and I think it's a great idea.
I'm in too. Not looking for cash if this is something that will be openly given away!

Great idea. Casascius coins are awesome, but the minting premium is an issue for large scale use. With bitcoin you are your own bank. Now you can even with DRAW your own bitcash! My .02 BTC: *If it has any colors, it should have BTC-orange on it in a fashion that looks good if printed in black and white. I'm a big fan of the current standard logo and the "ubuntu" font, so these would be good. *I think we should steer clear of putting people on it. Even though we are talking about using scientists and engineers, the portrait theme has a government/central bank feel to it. No portrait is simpler to print and fits with the "every-man" idea of bitcoin. *Think outside the box, such as ShireSilver's idea below. After all, we are re-inventing currency here! If it wasn't for the size of govt cash, wallets could be a lot smaller. I'm not necessarily against the full-size note, but that size does seem more fiat-fluff than utility. Why not make the checks credit card sized? More per sheet and you could fit more in a wallet - even put them in their own slot.
I agree 100% with everything except the size. I think the size should be the same as fiat bills. For one thing it will sell people on transitioning to their use (hey, paper bills... I recognize this!), and another is physical benefits of a standard size note. People can keep up with them better, for example, knowing the feeling of them still in their pocket etc. Smaller equals slightly easier to lose/locate, and then there is the unfounded but very real instinct that bigger always means higher value. So how much would a bitcoin banknote be worth if it was THIS BIG?

Could even go as far as selling advertising space on the these bills!

rjk, You're a true retard for trusting bitcoinica and devaluing btc via short selling. They get hacked for ~48k btc and you still trust em? Then another ~18k. Complete idiots to trust em after getting hacked the first time. Short selling is bad mmkay. So FUCK YOU for using bitcoinica and devaluing btc.
The hacker did the community a huge favor. The price of btc is up since.... so stfu and stop whining about it. You put your $$ into someone ele's hands who might I add are complete idiots and now its gone. booo-fucking-hoo.

Do you wish to put up a larger bounty with a much stronger pass phrase?

I have encrypted the private key using AES 128bit pass phrase. I call BS. There's no way anybody could decrypt something like that without the pass phrase (unless it was very weak, in which case it was not 128 bit) Bitcoin Address: 169N4izDwoUb73Abwv8Qc1hSUTwpXanSwK Private Key (Wallet Import Format): 5KMKBQAUGDayBLVLDxYGky3LfmYvs1U5HK8mGaVER2EeQDUY9ri Passphrase was "bitcointalk.org"

Putting Bitcoin on the payroll brings the IRS into the picture.

COOL!
So who ended up with the reward?

Even if their API works, I am more concerned with the possibility that they somehow go out of business. I would like to have a surefire way to recover my backup, if needed.
I hear ya! maybe the password is screwing it up? Do you have funny characters or something? That was my issue with the API. I needed to url encode my password
