And just to throw some more ideas at it now, lol: Red color when price lowers a lot, orange when it lowers a little, green when it grows. Maybe 24 hour graph if it's not too complicated for the display.
Well, ideas are always welcome, I suppose. And I like the ideas that you proposed. However a 24 hour graph seems a bit to much right now. Maybe as an firmware update later on? I have an idea as well, let the user decide from which source it has to get it's price. |

I would think with enough visitors you can make some money off a faucet, if you sell advertising. You will need a lot of visitors and you'll have to give away only enough to make sure you're profitable. Another idea some faucets do is to have it like a lottery, where you could get from 1 satoshi up to 1 BTC or something like that.
The problem is the market is oversaturated. You'd need to approach advertisers directly to land any deals at this point. Otherwise you're not going to make much, if anything. Yup and the problem with that is, you need visitors to get advertisers, but with a oversaturated market, you won't get enough to be attractive to advertisers. Which sucks  If people were able to (or willing to) pay a decent amount, they could gain market share easily. When most faucets are paying out like half a uBTC per claim, that is nothing. If they were giving more money, they would be prioritized. I, for example, would gladly prioritize sites on my rotator if they were willing to pay more. Well, that is true of course. But most people don't have that kind of money to put into a faucet. Also, the chance of losing it are quite high. Most people prefer to play safe with their hard earned BTC. |

Oh and 100$ because of an amazing bet.  Alright tell me your secret! I want to make $100 as well..  Well, it was just a very very lucky bet on Green 0, which earned me the $100. And no, I didn't lost it all. I took the profit and quit playing. |

Yeah, it sucks that it came to that. At the end of last year there were a couple faucets I know of that were pulling in 5btc+ in profit per week. One was earning 1.5-2 BTC a day off theirs.
I wish that I was once of them, but oh well. Bad luck. I still liked giving back to the community and helping out newbies. |

I probably shouldn't have made that post I'm just really excited.
Patiently await the announcement and hopefully you'll like it.
Ah, no problems man. And I think I will. Could you post the link to the announcement on here as well? That way I won't miss it. Of course! The announcement thread will include the landing page for the website, pictures of the prototype, link to indiegogo campaign if we go that route, prices of each one, twitter, facebook, etc. It will most definitely be posted here and advertised around forum. Sounds great man. Well, hurry up and get that shit ready |

Faucets main issue currently IMO isn't fees or security but the lack of advertisers in the typical smaller faucets but not totally sure, IMO it's not profitable to open a faucet now.
I agree with you. I had to close my faucet because I couldn't pay my visitors with the revenue I got from my ads. Which sucked to be honest. I loved being a faucet owner. I've noticed this as well. And it was caused by three things: 1) Faucets started flooding their sites with ads. I've seen some with 20+ ads on the page 2) More and more faucets started popping up 3) People became immune to the ads due to there being so many This killed profit for advertisers, so they started paying less. Even so, more and more faucets popped up (as some people would gladly run a faucet for a cent per week). I used adservices like BitAds and AdBit, which would give me pretty good revenue even though I had just one or two ads per page (and none on some pages). However, I didn't want to decrease my payout even more so I started to take some loses. After a while nobody clicked the ads which caused investors to not spend money on my ads, which caused me to lose even more money. So I shut it down. |

General, I mean no disrespect, but could you a picture as proof of the prototype (with you holding up a piece of paper with your name on it)? People on Bitcointalk and Bitcoiners in general are very suspicious about pre-orders. Could you also link us to the website, Facebook page, proof of LLC, and so on?
Of course. Completely understand. When the announcement thread is posted everything will you mentioned will be in it. Ah, glad to hear that man! Can't wait |

How is this? I just added the max amount on the max posts place  Yeah, I think that should do it. By the way, in relation to the information on the left about whether or not the campaign is "active", "inactive", etc., perhaps it would be easier to separate it much like below, and remove that column? In a sense they are already divided that way, so it would just be a matter of putting a label in between. I agree with you, but I didn't like the way it looked when I put a label in between. That is why I'm doing it like this. |

nice thread, thanks for this. Ive been off the forum a few months. looks like the competition for sig advertising is much better than when i left!
It is, it is. Anyway, thanks for the complement dude The table itself is done. I didn't include closed campaigns, because who want's to join a campaign that doesn't payout? Will be working on design now. |

PrimeDice and GawMiners don't have a max. number of posts. Atleast I can't find it in their threads. They have minimum's, but no maximum's as far as I can see.
Thanks!
Well, Gaw Miners have a maximum of 50 posts (same as the minimum). That is, you can post more than that of course, but it won't get paid. As for PD, they also have a limit, though you have to calculate it; you receive a max of 2.4 btc a month, so it comes to about 2000 posts for Hero Members, down to 6000 posts for Members. Might be trickier to include in the list though, so it might not be worth it... How is this? I just added the max amount on the max posts place bitcoininformation just watch this new format you done a great job but I think you give some more gape from up to down then its better for you and you can give more information in misc
I will try to make it more readable, but well, this is BBcode, not CSS  |
