[Dimitry]

The first one is amazing.

I agree looking good

[Nyterax]

First is an instant charmer!

[pandionrain]

Which design do you prefer between these two examples ?

Which design do you prefer between these two examples ?

#1

This one is too good to be true
Love it

If we get that wallet I'll gladly give 5k to you sparc0(or whoever did that)
Once again Amazing

[ttoroie]

BTW I'd love to get that pic from the wallet and save it as a desktop background
If you can send it or give me a link, that would be awesome
Thanks

[ifxist]

Guess I got to go with #1,  Image looks Jedi-ish.

[sparc0]

Thank you all for your replies, #1 design will be in next wallet release

Stay tuned

[sk00t3r]

I like number 1 better, but the darker blue bar (or even something more "desert" like) would look better.

To be the most technologically advanced cryptocurrency on the market.
Well it's not going to be the most technologically advanced crypto so using this would be false(although not a reason not to use it).

It's also important to keep in mind that technology is not an end in itself. Far better to have a stable, safe, boring coin that actually works than something with all the bells and whistles that ends up forking and being vulnerable to exploits and has bugs in the wallet and so on. The technology should be a means to an end, and that end is what the mission statement should reflect.

  Nzminer did number 1! Still.more work to go and market data apis are working on closed testing currently..  gettin close to full community testing and final release!

  Also enroute
Dedicated silkcoin multipool with 20 coins and 3 payout options.   Btc Bc, and slk?
  Faucet
  Dice game
  New block explorer
  Im wallet voting
  Voting site
  Main website
  Android and ios wallets.. - now with these need some feedback also.  Can make mobile wallets but currently no POS due to battery drain.   Thinking that staking can be done on comp and would be very useful to be able to send silk by mobile, even with the slight pos loss.  Let us know what you think!

 Nicely said.  And definitely agreed.  We've removed all the rusted bells and broken whistles.  We are stable and safe but also leagues ahead of boring.  (-;

Just a bit of advice here for all active community members. 
 
  The price of Silk is very likely scheduled to rise and never return to current prices with all of the development that is pending release.

The more of us own silk the more protected the network will be.  This community is STRONG.  and Growing.

The original Silkcoin did fairly well considering how sloppy it was put together..  We will surpass previous heights. 

We are all doing this together.

Much, much more to come.

Welcome to the Revolution.

My apologies in advance for the long post!

OK, so here are the two winners of the easypoll for:

Vision Statement for Silkcoin

To be the most technologically advanced cryptocurrency on the market. 27%

To become the cryptocurrency that consumers, investors, and the community can trust. 25%

Total votes: 59

I was hoping to receive more votes, but this is a good start. So my plan is to use the overall winner as Silkcoin's Vision Statement and I will use the runner-up to build Silkcoin's Mission Statement. If this is acceptable, then I will move ahead and create an easypoll for Mission Statements to be voted on. If anyone in the community objects to this, please let me know ASAP and we can find a solution. Thank you!

Trust is a big sell point and you're calling out each group in an alertive first person(consumers,investors)(makes me think the "vision statement" includes me and has a personal touch).

My sentiments exactly!  That was my logic to decide between the two when I voted.  I think we should stress trust and value over claiming to be the best (or one day be the best).  Although there are more coins now with staking, staking is definitely an advantage because it's rare with coins that people actually want to hold.  The others are just shitty dump coins where even if the stake interest was 20% you would be losing money by not selling it off, haha.  Hell, in this economy, you can't even get interest on USD.  At least not 2% that's for sure!

Any reply from mods about /r/Silk yet? If not, that means they never saw your post because the bot automatically removed it after detecting your don't meet requirements. Did you PM any of the mods directly?

I messaged the mods this morning and just replied to your comment.  Let's see if we get lucky, haha.

#1 for sure and I second changing the color to the darker desert blue found on #2.

Amen!  I'm pumping every extra mBTC that I can into SILK and stuff it in my wallet.

I personally appreciated your efforts which you enforced to put Silkcoin and community back on track. I would says, Silkcoin will surpass BTC one day. All credit goes to new team.

[Nyterax]

Looking at the first post, among the features "in development" there are vague things not helping with understanding what is Silk trying to become now, soon and in farther future, so could any insider work out an estimated time frame for the first major release and describe which of the features are gonna be new in that release and which are planned for future releases?

Like, describe the planned order of feature implementations between major releases, like the roadmap format many coins use?

Speaking of vagueness, The Games Center, App Center and other isolated, undescriptive labels are listed under active development, without a word about what exactly are those supposed to be and why?

Maybe it's just me but seeing claims like that thrown around without credible, elaborate description seems kind of a buzz-kill.

Also, is there gonna be a Whitepaper detailing what specific technical problems Silkcoin tackles and how exactly it does that?

And it feels like quite little of the information from inside of the team reaches the public. Isn't transparency one of the prime values the revival team wants to actively embody to contrast against Silkcoin's past?

Sorry if I appear impatient, I'm just overall excited

Why have to pick? It would be nice to have skins on a wallet so I can customize how it looks.

This one is my Fave out of the two, but the Help button seems a little out of place there . I think the darker color and larger font make it stand out and seem a bit wrong sitting there next to the other button.

[pandionrain]

Silkcoin.  The digital currency with integrity and value.

Skins on the wallet.  That's cool. Keep those suggestions coming.

VIVA LA REVELUCION!!!   Let's set something on fire!

typing out loud again.....
