[ANN] SpreadCoin | Decentralize Everything (decentralized blockexplorer coming)

[georgem]

I really like having the core fundamentals like block time etc somewhere within the wallet too.

Indeed,

the question is just, do we want this information to go into the "Network Overview" constantly visible in the header?



Or do we want to put it as secondary information in the not constantly visible overview page.

So this is about priority.

My vote is for secondary information but easily findable.

Well, it's not an either or. We can use both.

I like that the network box in the header informs us about things that are changing on a per minute basis.

Secondary information should be everything else.

.....
the emissions curve...brb
.........

Plus, main features?

found it:

On second thought, all those specifications can easily fill up the whole overview site, so maybe we are going to need an additional screen JUST for the specifications,
and link to it from the overview screen.

Let's do it like this.

I'd rather want the structure of the overview screen to stay clean:

1) Introductory text + Important Messages (followed by a small button called "Spreadcoin - Specification" which leads to the specification screen)

2) Boxes in the middle that explain the main cageories within the wallet.
(e.g. Wallet (Pic + title), go here if you want to receive or send SPR or take a look at any transaction, blablabla)

3) Important links at the bottom.

....
But keep in mind that we already have a section of the header reserved for "network information":



so I am not sure

More along the lines of



And people hardly ever know about things like halving dates, or emissions smoothing calculations in the case of SPR

ok.

Sounds like a plan

personally, I'd spend most of the time looking at transaction page, confirmations on transactions, etc.

I understand.

I now think that it would be better to move those specifications to their own screen, and just put a link to that screen on the overview site.
(Plus an entry in the menu that lets you jump to specification screen)

ok.

Sounds like a plan

Yes, I think we have the introductory section surrounded:

1) Title: Spreadcoin - Decentralize everything.
2) followed by stonehedge's brilliant oneliner.
3) followed by alert messages etc (will show up only if required)
4) followed by a link to the specification list.

[georgem]

Now if you could come up with brilliant oneliners for the 4 boxes.

That would be great!

 

[stonehedge]

I can't think of a way to make that one liner better.  I appreciate it doesn't capture the now but that's a job for project updates.

Maybe we could include a link to a thread on spreadcointalk for latest project updates instead?

okok, I was pulling your leg. 

Can you seduce our eyes with more such oneliners please...
we need one for the wallet, the vanitygen, the mining and the settings menu.

"Welcome to SpreadCoin, the project that is building a network where any application or service can be run in a decentralised manner."

Hm... I have been starring at the sentence for 10 minutes.

The only thing that bugs me a tiny little bit is the word "any".

Can we change that to make it so that it rather includes keywords with a meaning like "modular" and "your own" (or similar), but not necessarily "any",
because I can think of applications that can't ever run in a trustless or decentralized manner.

Does it work like this? :

"Welcome to SpreadCoin, the project that is building a network where any possible application or service can be run in a decentralised manner."

This reinforces the notion that impossible applications can't run on our network, and leaves the door open for us to explain in the future what such a "possible" application has to look like.

I think your version is better.  Agree that mine implies that we can do anything with servicenodes and we aren't in the position to say that yet

Go with it!

[georgem]

Go with it!

Thanks for your help.

Can I have a copy of the new QT so I can see what is behind those buttons?  An artist needs his muse...

I'll get the acid out.

If I get any ideas after a couple of trips, I'll let you know. It'll probably tomorrow, by the time I get back from outer space

They just lead to their specific target.

Much like when you press the category buttons in the left sidebar.

For all the links at the bottom we can make them look like that:

"For troll-infested chatter and amusing rants:

something like that, I am not good with words...

I am just saying, lets use this format for all bottom links:

Now make me proud!
