Where is the right place?  i don't post much, but it seemed like a reasonable thing to put it in the general discussion thread.  No worries.

GTABMX- Yup, they're good for groceries.  My wife has a pile of them, and she rotates them when she goes to the store.  She always gets gawked at and asked who made them.  It's why we started the site.

Cheers,

Dragonflies are too easy to work up.  We do custom orders.  It doesn't cost anything to submit a request through the website.  You just ask for something you want to see, and we respond with some samples and a quote.  If you don't like it, no worries at all.

Cheers, and thanks for taking a look.

Yeah... that reminds me... if you get your coin, please bump us.  I won't be bumping this thread aside from giving explanations of technical challenges in running this type of effort. 

If you're bitcoin-rich, feel free to send donations to my sig block address.  I'm rolling it into this giveaway (honestly), and hopefully will make ends meet in combination with my mining efforts.  Every .0006 BTC keeps this going.

Cheers,

RyanEnder

FYI- I'll be sharing the technical challenges we encounter here in this thread.  So far, we were able to run this promotion using Joomla 1.5.x and ChronoForms. 

Thought it might be helpful for those thinking of doing something similar.

Cheers,

Ok, growing pains all around...

I was using the 0.3.22 client, and it was forcing a .01 BTC transaction fee on every .0001 BTC transaction I sent.  Upgraded to 0.3.23, and we're down to .0005 BTC.  Much better...

Cheers,

We're trying to see if there's value driving business to our site using BTC microtransactions.  Simply go to WhimsyBags.com, navigate to "Bitcoin Giveaway", enter your Bitcoin address, fill in the Captcha and hit "Submit".  No catches, no personal data.  We're just advertising, and think Bitcoin is a pretty good way of going about it.

The process isn't automated (yet), so if you experience a delay, it's just because we haven't gotten to your submission yet.

Feel free to pass us feedback either here or on the website.  We're very interested in hearing what you have to say.

This might not last, depending on the return on investment, but for now, have at it!

Cheers,

Whimsy Bags- http://www.whimsybags.com

We just put up a site today dealing in physical goods.  WhimsyBags.com.  We'll see how it goes...  Embarrassed

Yeah, we're trying to figure out how to estimate BTC prices.  It's sparked a heated debate here.  I totally agree with you.

For now, we're just using USD conversion rates on MarketCharts.com, and coming up with a BTC based around $15.  Hopefully, as the CMS needs grow, we'll be able to do it in a more automated fashion.

Thanks for taking a look!  Cheers!

Hey, guys...

I'm trying to get whitelisted, in order to put my new BTC-accepting merchant website up on the forums.  I've been here for a while, and would like to get a jump on getting the word out.

Please let me know if there's anything I can do to expedite the process.

Thanks!

I probably should have added: aside from this list- https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Category:Gambling

Does anybody know where I can find a master list of bitcoin gambling websites?  I'm interested in seeing what implementations there are out there. 

Even if you know of only one, please let me know.  I'll compile them, and repost once I've got a few worth sharing.

Cheers

...and then they take all the bitcoins in everybody's accounts... "just for the lulz"...  yikes.

Still, Apple has tried getting their Cloud service (yeah, I know, it's not exactly doing MapReduce) off the ground a couple of times.  I can definitely see the upside of creating a virtual currency, especially if I owned the sites where it intersected other currencies like Mt. Gox or TradeHill. 

I still think the best way for Bitcoin to flourish is to make sure the places where they intersect with the economy in general is as hardened and secure as anything on the Internet.  Flaunt it.  Challenge hackers to take it down.  I'd trust a site that openly talked trash to LulzSec, Anonymous, or any of those guys...  Smiley
