NXT :: descendant of Bitcoin - Updated Information

HELP NEEDED TO CREATE A LANDING PAGE!

I have registered startnxt.com (and startnxt.net) and would like to create a landing page! I am looking for a designer who will help me to create a simple, but sexy landing page for new users. We have a few clients (including the web client of wesleyh!), a few functions (aliases, AE, transparent forging), two forums and a few other nxt homepages with different onformationsets which needs to be introduced to new Nxters.

The homepages we currently have are not so userfreiendly and contain too much information for Avarage Joe. I want to have a 1-pager, where the user is guided through all the functions of Nxt when he is scrolling down. I don´t want to have too much information (nor too much text, I prefer graphics) on the page, but all the graphics should be clickable and should link to other sites where the user has access to more information (a link to http://info.nxtcrypto.org/ or to the wiki for example).

The focus needs to be on the graphics, not on the information, as this page would only work as a landing page from where the user can navigate to other pages where he can have access to more detailed infos.

I too have thought this is very important and have been considering registering new2nxt.com as the jump page.  If you can get this implemented in the next 2 weeks I would like to get it on biz cards to hand out at the Texas conference.

I'm doing this already with BitVenturer. 

Count me in on this effort as my full-time input on NXT between now and the Texas conference.  This is of critical importance in bringing new users into the fold.   I will assist in generating text / identifying URLS etc. but unfortunately my web design skills are non-existent.  I just checked and the new2nxt.com/net/org domain names are all wide open.  I personally would really prefer this to startnxt - mcjavar, what do you think about this?  Passion/BV - where is a sample of your card design? 

Will deliver on sunday. It will be made with bootstrap, similiar to bitcoin.org, very simple yet beautiful. We still need to check the financings..

But we definitely need help with the english textes, russian and german is no problem.

bitcoin.org has too much text for me. I would prefer more graphics and less texts.

Maybe we are working on different sites then. Ours will be the bitcoin.org of Nxt.

Is there an effort to make the overall look and feel the same?
Please say you do!

The stuff that is out there today is a collection of styles/graphics/texts that are none coherent whatsoever. A bit of a mishmash.

@tipping bot bounty. I know You Guys are pretty stoked to see the reddit bot in action. and i don't want to be a downer. but i really only want to give him a partial bounty when he releases the source. 

we need the bot to handle Offchain tipping and fractional Nxt tipping. i also know that this is way harder to implement, but it was a requirement for the bounty as i always stated it should be like the doge tipping bot.

i hope you guys understand my point.

any feedback on this?

Hey mcjavar,

I had already registered nxtstarter.net and nxtstarter.de for a potential nxt-kickstarter project, but have no time at the moment, to work on that. So I could redirect those to startnxt if needed.

BTW thanks to all client developers...super great work so far. I hope that the bounty will not only go to a single client but can be split up to maybe the 2-3 best ones...

http://nxtra.org/nxt-client/ is so much awesome. Where can I download a testnet node? I can't find a link

I'd like some testnet coins too, my address is 15641203180843086493

Hi, testnet available at https://holms.cloudapp.net:6875
Create your testnet account there and come back here post your testnet account. I'll send some nxt to your account.

As for client u could use clienxt v0.005 or nxtsolaris or other.

Or he could just register at http://nxtra.org/nxt-client also :-)

yea the account posted was created at http://nxtra.org/nxt-client

I couldn't find clienxt and nxtsolaris appears to be windows only. Is there a client for OS X or linux?

Hello,

I'd like to test AE so I've just created a test account : 12276412591328779786

Who's kind enough to send me some testNxT ?

thks !!

With all those beautiful clients online, wouldn't it be time to start promoting this aspect? Many people were skeptical in the beginning due to missing clients, but this problem is apparently gone now - however, it doesn't help, if Average Joe does not find out about it because he/she does not surf on this forum.

How could we promote the new clients? Big banners @ mynxt.info, nxtcrypto.org etc?

It's Nxt week!  

What a great news about Nxt! I have pushed some news to the crypto news sites. We do have to make all this great stuff visible to the press! Keep up the good work (and keep hodling!).

Hi NXTers!

NXT's greatest competitor seem to be Ethereum. It's main feature that NXT still lacks is scripting, which is a wonderful idea (along with it's risks of course) - kudos to Vitalik and his team for bringing this up!

Because I want NXT to be competitive and because this is a great feature on it's own, I decided to personally fund a team led by CIYAM and CfB (as long as he is with us), to implement this technology in NXT too!

The code will be open sourced when the feature is finished and extensively tested.
We will use a private github repo if others want to easily review the source during development.

Let the good times roll!

Is there a trailing slash in your URL? Try to remove it.
