I'm working on a website, one of the key parts I need is a vertical progress bar (or progress meter for some) that instead of your typical simple color background is a stack of bitcoins. An example image is this: http://d1euk9k8t2kc51.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Bitcoin-VectorToons-002.jpg obviously it can be just a straight stack of coins as long as the top part shows that it is a stack of bitcoins. All graphics need to be custom made (please make vector images even if the plugin itself uses raster images) or from an open source (if you do please state where). The progress bar needs to react to transitions e.g. when setting a value it should lower/raise the stack as an animation. If you can integrate it with https://github.com/minddust/bootstrap-progressbar then that's good but mainly I just need compatibility with Bootstrap 3 and jQuery.

Ultimately I'm not looking for it to be exclusive, it can be done as a open source github project as long as the licence is under something like Apache or GPLv3.

I am putting up BTC0.11 for this upon completion, money is waiting here https://blockchain.info/address/1B5waNH9ZiGdhWVEaJyUeJvTMNCr4QAz9o. I've signed the title of this thread for proof of address ownership, HEUr8WHsPo0kzmqX2lkb9MAWLb/JMaQItUMbkEApZIy64qSgPcf2tzyrC9StfQQ3cOG/MCahKDAR8k7qMMNmo3c=. I will need to have a hosted demo for me to try and work with so something like jsfiddle is fine. I'm willing to set up escrow if necessary but prefer not to if possible.

I'd like it if communication is kept in this thread to be nice and open to all but if you feel it's really necessary then do message me privately.

Anyone know a good place to sell off some coins quickly?

I used to use XMLGold.eu which wasn't great but was at least quick but they're down till 6th of June.

I need another site or a good safe way to deal with someone directly to secure GBP or even EUROs at a point?

For the first time even the mining pool I use, btcmine.com had what appears to be a ASIC mining running as one user on the top mining board got over 60,000MH/s.

So anyone got a guess how many ASIC devices are out there right now in operation? If you do try and show some working out of how you got to you conclusion

[Here's the question]

Hey all, I created a question here: http://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/10878/is-bitcoind-reliable-when-depending-on-it-for-web-services

was wandering as there are a lot of technical minded people with bitcoin knowledge and knowledge of bitcoind and it's application in web services could answer it for me as I want to start work on a small project but my worry is scalability later on in running a service.

Here's the question:

"What I mean by the title is, say If I create a service with bitcoind being used to create and store large numbers of accounts and address, is it likely to take the strain? Can I setup multiple instances of bitcoind to access information about the network or would I need to one large instance of a bitcoin daemon to handle everything?

If not is there an alternative to be used that can keep up with an expanding web service?"

Please feel free to discuss here but if you have an experienced answer to give I'd hope you'd answer the question for me on stack exchange and so it's filed away easily for others to find.

As I'm a hobbyist miner and I need to make a few posts I thought I'd make an effort to see what other hobbyists use. Mine:

2 AMD 6950 graphics cards I got off Ebay
and a beast of a computer I built a year or two back running Xubuntu.

Used to generate around 1BTC a week (I've had some issues with OS instability and cards overheating lately), I don't pay power bills as my work was kind enough to let me rig up a machine in their server room.

Hoping to get on the ASIC bandwagon at some point but not overly worried about this gold rush atm, seems a lot of people have faith in the things.

Hey all,

Do I have to be verified or something, there's some interesting posts I've seen from twitter but I have no way of replying, it's kind of annoying if you can't get verified within like 12 hours of signing up?
