NXT :: descendant of Bitcoin - Updated Information

[NxtChg]

U should look at the textures, not the colors.

Your textures are bad and you should feel bad.

I actually agree with bitcoinpaul, this is a joke, right?

These colors... Most time, I don't case about them. But sorry, these colors are, well, beyond my taste.

U should look at the textures, not the colors.

Yeahhhh, I seeeeeee it not. :/

Just dull. :/

I am no designer, I can just tell when I like something and when I don't.

These samples, I certainly doesn't like. Don't ask me why.

[bithic]

Honestly, I'm not really a fan of the hexagon or the colors.

Everyone take a look at http://www.nxtcrypto.org/ to remind yourself of how awesome our current graphics and logos are.

[S3MKi]

sorry for the noobness of this.. but anychance you could elaborate? whats qubic? and by crypto platfoms do you mean crypto which trade on their own decentralised exchange??

Qubic is described in my signature. Platform is something more sophisticated than just a coin.

Centered between the two points like this?

like ios7

[Daedelus]

I would guess that 3 is important to this coin? The cube(ic) of 9 being 3?

Just a coincidence

The Nxt project mastermind, er... sorry. I mean prominent programmer and coincidence? That must be a first

No, I took BCNext's idea what colors to use to print Nxt banknotes.

Probably the psychology of color... orange denotes creative dynamism, blue financial stability, etc etc.

Those are definitely understated/muted.

Those colors are a:

[davethetrousers]

I like both the icon and the colors.

If you don't agree, take me to court

Seriously, we have many talented people here, who are good at design. Just look how many logo samples we've got in that contest.

Ask them to do it professionally.

Hexagon on the side sucks.
Hexagon on the point is too much like your Qubix.

Have you seen the engraving sample somebody posted here? Simple, no hexagon, still looks great.

How much longer is discussion about 5 separate topics going to occur in one thread? Am I the only one who thinks this is an ineffective way of communicating?

Probably forever.  I like it.  This place is like a noisy and boisterous pub, a fun place to be.

I like it when I'm just looking to chill (and there are no angry debates going on...) I hate it when I'm trying to find info to work with.


There's a lot that could be done to help with communication. Instead of just a traditional forum (section -> thread -> post), there could additionally be support for the following, e.g.
 
-instead of giant quote pyramids, there could be slashdot/reddit tree-style threads.
-people like salsa, pin and joefox are making regular aggregator link posts, which is great. Even better if these could be stickied. Better still imo, if the most important links and their description could be displayed directly, instead of having to go into the stickied post to find them. Basically, the more important and/or the more people it involves, the more visible it should be.
-more options to customize what you want to follow than just a watchlist. Maybe a reddit style way of assembling favourite subreddits. Maybe topic tags for threads and posts.
- I've mentioned summary and definitions of technical terms before. Maybe a small, fixed frame/window for summary of the ongoing discussion (update permissions decided by topic starter say?) Mouseover technical terms/acronyms to get definitions (maybe these could be databased in our wiki? What do you think joe?)
- maybe integration of real-time communication tools like gdocs or the old Google Wave, or at least a chatbox.
- personally, I'd love LaTeX support so that I can write math using less English

Lots of possibilities. But most importantly, the site admins and devs need to experiment with ideas like this and interfaces. Find out what works best for most folks.

nxtcrypto, are you guys (or anyone else) up for this? I don't know web coding, so even though I suggest all this, I can't help with the implementation I can do interface mockups though. And the LaTeX support part, if you guys are interested in adding that, I can help. Let me know.

[Labteck]

where is the AE?
Is not working yet?

who cares the fraging colors

+1

And this is already such a great graphic for use with "green" campaigns:

Those colors are a:

Ha!

For branding, I won't even touch that... besides, as others have mentioned, Nxt already has fantastic branding.

For printed currency like BCNext imagined, I guess I can see the appeal in that slate/cream thing. More of an understated US-style approach vs Euro-style technicolor eyeball kick.

I pretty much refuse to read the other forums due to formatting. BTT here isn't perfect, but at least it's denser.

Anything similar to usenet style will get my vote. Most of the fora that come preloaded with wix, weebly etc just look too damn bloated to glean information quickly.

[BitcoinForumator]

Make better use of the chain "module" in advertising visuals.

Make them connect...

The chain is just waiting to be used.
