It's my first time using silk road.

I'm using bitcoin-qt to send bitcoins to the silkroad deposit address, but getting "transaction creation failed!" after I hit send. (I can send bitcoins to other addresses, I've tried)

Don't you have to have funds available in your silkroad account before you can buy anything?

Example: You go to silkroad, hit "account", hit "Click here to make a deposit", then it gives you the bitcoin address to make the deposit.

So I still have 0.00 bitcoins available in my account when I need to have funds deposited so I can buy something...or am I doing it all wrong.

This is the support forum for the bitcoin-qt client and general bitcoin discussion. The silk road support forums are some place else. You better look for them somewhere, maybe in silk road website who knows, and ask your questions there.

So you are telling me that getting a bitcoin-qt error with the bitcoin-qt client isn't a bitcoin-qt problem?  Or is it just because it has to do with s.r.?  Isn't that allowed?

I just found out that it isn't a sr issue...it's a bitcoin-qt issue....I can't send out to blockchain.info either.  I can only send out to my own bitcoin addresses.

You have a lot of unnecessary information in your post that is simply confusing people.  Try a new post with all the unnecessary information and see if you get better help.

Suggestion, ask your question like this:

As far as I can tell, the address appears to be valid.  Here's the address I'm trying to send to: 1InsertTheAddressHere

Wow, hate for silk road/peoples choices is strong in here huh? Bitcoin used to be something beautiful, but now it has turned into something ugly and elitist... I've nearly had it with this crypto crap! It's not the crypto's themselves, it is some of the people involved with them!

Why judge? Just help! If you don't want to help fine, then just move on to another post you DO want to help with... Totally pathetic!

To the OP, hope you got the problem sorted, it wouldn't surprise me if these naggin ninnies haven't found a way to block silk road... If they could they surely would! How dare you decide to spend YOUR money where YOU choose! Don't you know you need to yeild to control freaks? Come on man, get with it! /s

Wow, overreact much?

OP asked for assistance in a Bitcoin Technical Support forum.  The way he asked his question confused a few people into thinking he was having a problem with Silk Road instead of a problem with Bitcoin.  Those people suggested looking for assistance somewhere more focussed on Silk Road issues.  I simply pointed out that, since the problem had nothing to do with Silk Road, the OP could avoid causing confusion and increase the likelihood of getting a useful answer by keeping their question focused on the details of their issues and leaving out extraneous information.

If he had been talking about how he was having a problem with bitcoins while making a cheese sandwhich, and phrased it in such a way that it caused a few people to think he was asking about the cheese sandwich, I would have suggested posing a new question leaving out the cheese sandwich part too.

Is network sync ok? Try to send a small amount to your friend.  You are not on test net, are you?
