Ok so i don't know if this was already brought up at all or if anything similar was tried, Do you think devtome as well as writing should sponsor photography? Maybe something like 1 share per 10 original pictures and the pictures would be rated for quality, overall look... Im not talking about family reunion type pictures but more like scenery, automotive, nature and other things people may like. Tell me what you think.

Would it be alright if I spread the word to designers outside of the bitcoin community?

Yes of course!

They will need a devcoin address to get paid shares if they win though, but I guess that's the whole point.

Random Devcoin animation.

Newsam just messaged me on coinzen with an animation he made. It has 80's music, style and cinematography, and I really liked it (not sure if on purpose or due to tech on hand). Maybe it's just nostalgia...I miss the 80s...so much character. Anyway, I thought I would share:

I have been away a while but if anyone is interested, devcoinproject.com is mine and Im happy to work on the new site. Currently it runs Joomla CMS (open source) and can be configured to do most anything we need. I just havnt done anything with it in a few months.

I started with a heap of the suggestions from way back but then the community seemed to change its mind on what it wanted so a clear plan forward is great.

Wow, im a devtome writer and this proposal sounds fantastic! Its all about making the coin open source. More and more society will realize the importance of open source. We need a currency that represents those values.

Great stuff!

Devcoin is in really good hands with hunterbunter at the helm the rest of the crew manning the ship.

Here is the proposal for those who missed it...

Great, so based on the criteria in the post by serejandmyself below, there is a bounty of 6 shares (plus up to two 3-share consolation bounties) for designs/mockups submitted by 22nd October 2014 1200 UTC.

If no designs have been submitted by this date, or no designs satisfy all the judges, we'll increase the shares awarded and set a new deadline until this task is completed. The length of time judges need should be about a week to come to a decision after this date.

This bounty is for a design or mockup only, and the winner will have exclusive rights to work on the actual website using their design for one month, before it opens up to everyone using the same winning design. The 6 shares award is for the rights for the devcoin community to use that design in an updated devcoin.org.

The site itself merits a bounty of 24 shares, split between designers/developers as they see fit. The designer doesn't have to be able to code the site up themselves, just make it look good, and fit the criteria below. If the designer opts not to create the website itself, they can waive their right to exclusivity and we'll open it up to anyone using that design. I'm sure there are developers willing to aid in the task of wiring it all together lurking around, either way.

Submissions are welcome either as links to images or mockup sites with trash data. I would say at least two pages should be included for the design.

Any objections or something that should be changed or clarified?

Ok so here is the list considering all judges opinion :


Criteria list for the new DVC website :

The website must,


1)   Be modern and progressive


2)   Have cutting edge graphics and functions


3)   Should be interactive and user friendly as much as possible


4)   Be easy to read and be understandable to anyone (layout included)


5)   Load quickly enough


6)   State DVC mission, include FAQ about the basics of DVC, explain its purpose and history


7)    Consider DVC’s logo and colors in its design


8 )   Make it easy to understand links to various aspects of DVC (i.e. bounties, Devtome, forums etc.)


9)   Not be heavy on the eye and be designed with lay in mind due to the fact that some participants (investors and such) might not be overly technical.

Further to this, here's one of the articles he wrote on devtome (username samkary, has link in article), about devcoins in africa: http://devtome.com/doku.php?id=how_i_spent_my_devcoins_in_africa. As you all know we're not a charity, and he's earned his shares the same as everyone else, but it pleases me greatly that we can have this sort of impact on people's lives. It's a really inspirational story, and I encourage everyone to read it to see what your support of devcoins is actually doing in the far flung reaches of the world ... It doesn't matter where in the world people come from; having a passion for writing, creating, and programming for the good of all, doesn't necessarily mean they will have local options to make the best use of their raw talents, enough to draw an income from. We're providing a platform for people with these talents but without opportunity, and those who would support them to meet, and I am humbled to be a part of something that could improve the lives of potentially so many people.
Nicely put.

serejandmyself: Looks good. I probably forget sometimes to look at it all from the viewpoint of somebody who doesn't yet know anything about Devcoin - so more perspectives from fresh eyes is great.

Cool! Is that your work?

It's a really inspirational story, and I encourage everyone to read it to see what your support of devcoins is actually doing in the far flung reaches of the world. As far as I can see he's still consistently contributing to devtome with a current 80 median rating..apparently I rated him 85 a few months ago too, so I think he's a good writer and an asset to devtome and the devcoin community.

When I was talking about devcoins being better as a transaction coin, this is pretty much a prime example of what I meant. It doesn't matter where in the world people come from; having a passion for writing, creating, and programming for the good of all, doesn't necessarily mean they will have local options to make the best use of their raw talents, enough to draw an income from. We're providing a platform for people with these talents but without opportunity, and those who would support them to meet, and I am humbled to be a part of something that could improve the lives of potentially so many people. I know I've only recently been given lead administrator role, but I want to sincerely thank all of you long term devcoin investors out there for having the vision and altruism to put humanity first in the way you have done here.

Many virus scanners throw a fit because it used libcurl and bitcoin itself has issues passing virus scans. Its safe if you can ignore it.

Not mine, Newsam sent it to me (coinzen member) and I liked it so shared it Smiley.

Is there any good news or updates of DVC?

Not sure whether you consider it good news or not, but big changes happening to the share list distribution in the coming rounds. You can read all about it here: http://www.devtome.com/doku.php?id=devcoin_division_proposal, lots of things happening, including new community fund taking out about 40% supply of coins too to ease sell pressure a little bit, with various intended uses. All in the proposal.

or https://vircurex.com/welcome/index?base=dvc&alt=btc, https://crypto-trade.com/currencies/trade/dvc_btc
Vircurex has had issues although I still use it personally, but wouldn't advocate a particular exchange.
