Thank you for the clarification on the process I understand now.

Looking at the polls again, the four icons without a doubt makes the design more unique, that's for sure.

There were two polls, one was predominately quadrant views, the other was not.  Very low turnout on the second poll despite being posted about a day later (as of right now 23 votes on the first poll but only 9 on the second).  Links were posted here since the polling system was integrated with the Freelancer website.  While a bit more work to go to than just a poll here, it was far easier to put together and my thought was the people that went and voted would predominately be the ones interested in the coin, not just random forum users.

We had over 400 entries, in a contest the site expected a "great turnout" would be 200.  A lot were rehashes of designs in different color schemes or small tweaks.  But the quantity of the turnout was very good.  As a sealed contest no other artists could see the other entries.  Yet prior to the suggestion by the Dev, we got a lot of meaningless logos that could have been for Biblepay or easily could have been for some new candy bar or investment group.  The better ones would at least have been seen as probably being some megachurch but prior to the suggestion most of the logos were nicely done but very generic.  As if the artists had a file that was "generic religious logos" that they slapped Biblepay on and submitted.

The top design does represent the coin well, but it can still be tweaked a bit (we've got 6 days before I have to extend or award the prize).

You have to search this in this thread. I tried to compile it on a raspberry pi 3 but failed. Dev said somewhere in this thread that probably a few lines of code need to be altered.

"possible to mine on raspberry pi?" -movdev

Very strange, try deleting blocks-chainstate folders also, delete peers.dat again, banlist.dat again, restart.

On the side try this:
telnet node.biblepay.org 40000

(Screen should clear).

Links were posted (and quoted) on bitcointalk several times. I also voted. But I do agree on the 'four quatrants' thing, because to be fair, that was kinda decided without asking the community. I know it was just a suggestion by 'the boss'. But a suggestion goes a long way when you're an artist entering a contest. You would - as an artist - probably rather follow that suggestion than risk losing the contest because you 'did your own thing'.

Quote from the freelancer site:


So of course, most of the artists followed this idea, and the coins that we could vote on as a community almost all had the quatrants. Í'm not saying I don't like the idea, but I do like it when a logo is simple and direct. That being said, I really do like the design we chose, and I fully trust the artists capability, I just think there is too much going on for my personal taste in the main logo. But maybe we can also have a simplified version?

Good Morning All,

My main rig is no longer syncing with the network. I deleted all banned nodes, backed up, and reinstalled and Im still stuck syncing. I show about 10 peer connections but its not moving. What would be the next problem solving step?

Thanks!

Once you upgrade the wallet you can type 'exec getversion' and it shows "wallet_fullversion": "1.0.4.9".  Thats how you know you upgraded.

You have to update TESTNET from source, as we are testing sanctuaries.  Sanctuaries dont run on windows.

Your last sentence is unintelligible - I have no idea what you mean by release number.  In the future to save our time here, try to take the steps to find the field name you refer to in a chained sentence with pipe delimited columns, then paste it here.  We have hundreds of places across 3 products with release numbers.  

PS Github does have the release number on the commit.  It says 1.0.4.9 - Non-Mandatory (TESTNET).

LOL, but no it looks like an angel right off the bat to me.  Its not bad.  We should have mentioned any changes to the designer earlier.  We didnt even pay West the full amount, so we cant possibly expect him to spend more (But note, Im not even admitting there is a flaw).  Its most likely viewer error.

Im happy with it.  We would have had to spend $1100 and hold this in the forum with more voting participation and more care - (I didnt really see that happen).  As no one created a swatch forum thread for colors, and West didnt recoup all of his expense. 

Its good guys, we are able to move to the next level with this logo.

We will have the clean monochrome version with no lettering for those other places.

We do understand the concept of clean and simple, thats what the monochrome version will be for - it wont have lettering and will be one color and will be recognizable from the partner sites.

You missed the actual voting on the designs - we had all kinds of styles entered.  This particular design was voted on.  To me it says that the logo was well thought out, it has our latin slogan and the quadrants show our fruits.  I dont think we are lacking anything by having the advanced side and the simple side.  I love it personally.

i was thinkg thats need upgrade win wallet too
winwallet exists still 148 only ... i had mishmash from it again,that we need 149 for win

For Linux, you can find what you need right here:
https://www.reddit.com/r/BiblePay/comments/6ummuj/how_to_mine_biblepay_on_linux/ (search for the 'update' header)

Also, see my post here:

For Windows, just install the exe. It will overwrite everything that's needed.

Hahaha! 'Alien's ribs'  

But I agree that it looks a bit strange, which is also why I'm leaning toward a cleaner look. Because in my opininon the more direct and non-confusing it looks, the better.

how can i update testnet wallet from 148 to 149? on main webpage exists still only 148 wallet :
still dont understand Robert why you cant do on wallet button write wallet release number? so its question few seconds do it 

Top i think its cloud;)
Yep, wings of angel looks a bit strange

I agree with you that when it comes to logos, keeping it simple is the way to go. I love the design that the artist made, and I love the white cross. But maybe changing something with the four quadrants can give is a cleaner look.

Oh, and I like the picture you used on your blogpost, very funny!

Im not syncing any longer...wasnt there some fix where you clear banned peers or something?
