First mock-up of a colour scheme from my guys.

Just the colours are important, it's not a site Wink

We're also working on a different red/yellow/white one, but this one is supposed to be for more business aimed uses:



Hmmm....like it in general. It's not making me go 'wow' though. I think the top menu bar in dark blue is giving the whole page a somber feeling. Try a lighter blue or go mad with some dark orange or yellow......
The colours on some of rickyjames texas .pdf were really cool.....I'll post a copy in a moment or 5.

EDIT: Ricky .pdfs:

@MikesBMW:

Good points, marketing needs to be emphasised.

Few reply points:
 
The atomic cross-chain bounty is a private initiative, totally outside the committee structure. Just a whale who wants to see it implemented, and has the NXT to make it happen. So none of that 3-5 megaNXT comes out of the community funds.

Damelon is working with a design bureau on a streamlined house style for NXT, see above.

Do you have any plans for helping with the A'dam conference May 15-17 ?

Did u like the stickers....?

Guys, was just discussing this with a friend.

Am I correct that the total budget voor marketing & promotion is what is in: 2037401990853753795?

there is 200k for conferences from this donation:
http://87.230.14.1/nxt/nxt.cgi?action=2000&tra=14304720412728680408 (travel, tickets, hotels, sponsorship, materials), 10k spent for Miami, 20k for Berlin, 23k will be soon sent for Austin

and 250k prepared for small promotion / translations / little projects (like paying 30k for this) from this donation:
http://87.230.14.1/nxt/nxt.cgi?action=2000&tra=9241849923972865648
(mostly based on this table: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.5358655) - so they can be publicly discussed here or in Committee because of the source was unclaimed coins. The last plan was to get 250k every month (18th) from the unclaimed coins for this, there are about 2.5 million now, but it can be changed according to the committee's decisions

There are still cca 200k from the private donation http://87.230.14.1/nxt/nxt.cgi?action=2000&tra=17506053978865082322, it's in full controll by me, so I can use it as my salary etc and don't have to look for a real job / ask for money from unclaimed coins for myself / in next months

Thanks for your extensive answer.

The reason I asked is the following:

I (with a capital "I") think the main (or at least the BIG second) focus of NXT should be marketing. This question came to my mind when I saw that a possible bounty of 3-5 MILLION NXT for atomic cross-chain trading was put up "just like that" and marketing has one? million?
It's nice that all the tech start to materialize, but when hardly anyone knows about NXT (outside the crypto scene) what good is state-of-the-art tech really? Don't get me wrong: I really like NXT and it's my largest investment by far, but marketing wise there is a lot lacking...

For instance the video that was just announced: nice video, but totally different from all the other stuff.
Websites: there are not 2 that look even a bit a like. Nxtcrypto.org just makes my eyes bleed and is a tech-nerd fest (I'm sorry that I must hurt a few people by saying this, but when I open a site and 80% of the site is pictures without any meaning.... come on....)

All are very nice initiatives, but we REALLY need to mature and start to exhibit coherency.
One design style, one video style, text writers, designers. All lead by one small group of people (that are choosen).

Remember that NXT (and basically all crypto's) is still VERY unknown to the majority of people and even the ones in the crypto community hardly know us.

And please don't say: we will start really soon.
Marketing should be the first or at the latest GOOD second priority and I know that doesn't sound as sexy as AE, Atomic cross-chain, 1000TPS, but we need our PRODUCT (yes a movement is still a product) sold/marketed/known/out there!

allw: it works, they really sent 3 Nxt. But they also sent 3 informational emails about releasing new giveaways.

I'm not surprised!

That's 10 cents they pay to get an email address.
Rather a good deal.

I also notice they don't have a privacy notice on the site, so they probably sell them on.

Hey guys, can I get some comment on the colour scheme?
I didn't put it up there just to be pretty  Cheesy

It sure looks good. But looks like my bank.
- Maybe give it a go with some "warmer" colors.
- And while they are at it - a color scheme for promoting the "green" Nxt.

I would like at least these three versions if we are to decide on a "common" color scheme for Nxt Smiley

[EDIT] - for "business" uses. Yes.
[NO EDIT] - Looks like my bank.  Wink

Is it a good idea to make a youtube video that can go viral?

This one is way out of our league, but for inspiration you can also look at this;

yes. I already linked this vid: And it isn't out of our league, actually my friend was leading the president campaign and created also his promo videos

I apologize for my bad idea about real world swarms.
James
well, we could create some flashmobs / viral videos like:

belgian drama

airport gift mob

Ode an die Freude

I would like to concentrate on creating the scripts for such mobs / events

whole wiki for February
I would say check with joefox.
He can give a better opinion on how much work was put in.

I translate the wiki myself, so I am bound to be biased Smiley
We have the statistics... but since it is for 20 languages, this job will be always very underpaid

I just compared the February stats to the January ones, and there was actually slightly MORE overall translation work done in February.  This was actually a surprise to me.  I thought it would have tapered off, but a few folks have been putting a lot of work into languages that have been thus far under-represented.

I would like to suggest, then, another bounty of 50K Nxt for February.  This would put the top payout at about 7500Nxt, and the lowest at 40Nxt.

Hi Guys,

Is it a good idea to make a youtube video that can go viral?

Like the "Free Hugs" campaign which had major views on Youtube.

For example we could something make like the Free Hugs / Free kiss campaign.
But not for free. The people who participate on the streets will get free NXT.

So; Kiss for NXT / Hug for NXT. Show some love to cryptocurrency.

You will need two persons. A cameraman and an actor =)

And then promote it like hell. Maybe we can hit the news.

How to spread the NXT? Maybe with businesscards with a unique password on it and a simple explanation and the link to the inforgraphic etc.
