The project has now been added to GitHub: https://github.com/JO31/Joel-s-VanityGen-GUI

Thank you got your response I would definitely agree and urge anyone who has an interest in developing to give it a go all of the resources are widely available.

I will be reading the application of Github either tonight or tomorrow so stay tunned.

Hello all,

This was my first post on bitcoin talk however it was removed due to possible malware (please keep reading.)  After seeking advise on the site as to how I can release the software I was advised by Quickseller and Grand_Voyageur to make it open source.  After looking into making it open source I quickly realised it was not going to be a fast process.  So why not release the source code to the community.

Please bear in mind I studied accountancy and am not a developer.  I have self taught over the past few years so my code is nothing special.  I am sure some laughs will be had but it was knocked up between NYE and now (04/01/2015.)

Anyway this is how my initial post went (Includes source now)

I am new to the BitCoin community (1 Month ish) and have been completely amazed at what I have learnt.  From the bitcoin architecture to the personal stories of success and failure.

One thing that has interested me is vanity wallet addresses.  I found you could easily create them online using web services.  But then you ask how secure are they really and how trustworthy are the owners.

After reading several articles I came across VanityGen.
Post Link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=25804.0

VanityGen allows you to easily generate Vanity Keys on you local machine.  The only issue I had was that VaniyGen only supports command lines.  This is fine for people who are familiar with using command lines.  But what about users who are less computer literate?  They may resort to less secure methods such as web services or paid services.

After failing to find a desktop application I decided to make my own 'Joels VanityGen GUI'

What does it do?

The application allows users to easily create Vanity Keys using VanityGen without the need for entering command lines.  The application simply creates the commands based on your setting and executes them.

Features:
Auto detect OS x64 or x32 (vanitygen64.exe, vanitygen.exe)
Supports CPU & GPU
Displays Statistics + Progress bar
View console output
Supports -o Output (VanityGen output feature)
The Application does not record or store and keys create
On load the application warns if the computer is connected to the internet

Evening,

I created a post earlier and it was removed.  After contacting BadBear (An online administrator) he advised it was probably due to suspected malware which if completely understandable as I have one post in which I release an .exe

BadBear advised me to post here

Please could someone test/ verify my application as I believe it will help some members in the community.  Also I would like to release it 1st on this forum as it has been very useful during development.
