Wallet Upgrades: Please review the below recommendations and let me know your thoughts..
Homepage:
The homepage appears to hang up during the lock and unlock phase due to the embedded news feed. What do you think about removing that and adding a hard coded “Watch us on Youtube” image linking to
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUuJ8orI0WndsOx7SSCwZEw Under that we could have simple hard coded textual links for

When creating new addresses sometimes the wallet glitches and does not create the address. I have also noticed the amounts on the addresses sticking or zero out.
Loading:
Work on increasing load time.
Shopping / Donations:
The embedded link is causing issues throughout the wallet.
Let’s vote on this tab as you suggested:
Option 1:
Set page for recurring payments where someone can configure a Mintcoin address which they wish to pay every x amount of days a set amount of mintcoins
Offer a hard link to a page were people are able to see a list of community projects which are in need of support.
Option 2:
Work with an exchanges API and
Use this to populate wallet with the following statistics:
1. Total estimated value BTC
2. Total Minted Mintcoins
Integrate market charts into the wallet.
Link to selected exchange (Mintpal?)
Just my 2 Mint,
Agreed return the overview page to how it was in the previous version
Instead of adding anything that embeds and pulls from the internet ,
would suggest just creating the links that then open your browser to the specific website pages or youtube video menus. This way it will not draw resources until clicked on.
We want to keep the Mintcoin wallet as tight and as resource friendly as possible so more users leave it up and minimized to secure the network.
Plus you would have the full browser page or screen to display info and not have to squeeze it in the mintcoin client frame beside something else.
The Top menu File Settings Help has alot of room up there, would suggest adding your links up there,
for example: File Settings News MintShop Videos PodCasts Help
Learning Center & Developers Resources links would be added under Help.
Click on News and it opens your broswer to your predefined webpage that you can change how you see fit.
Also a link to a block chain explorer would be cool.

This is a idea for the future but something worth thinking about
So that Mintcoin adoption spreads , one day there will need to be an
ONLINE Mintcoin Wallet for regular people, where they just sign in to a web page and check their balance and can send / receive to other people where they have no issues with having to keep up with the blockchain as it is done for them. The developer could charge a fee or percentage of their interest to cover this. Some people prefer convenience over the other aspects, and to bring them into the mintcoin family an online wallet would be required. (Anyway idea for Future)
