I found it, you need to edit the QT designer files that end in .ui

How to modify the look of a Windows Client.

Hi

Simple modification of the look of windows QT is easy to a degree and I have found the same simple changes in countless coin creation guides.  for example changing the PNG files in the src/qt/res/images and /icons folders.  And this works great to modify a few simple things, like the wallet logo, icons and splash screen.

But does anyone know how to go a step further and where to make changes to things like the, window color.  Or to add a different background color from the boring grey or even add a background image / png.  Also maybe there is a simple way to change the QT text color.  Does anyone know what files in the source I should be looking to change? 

Thanks in advance!

You trust that guy?

RT is Russian state sponsored TV.  Everything on that channel is pure Russian propaganda.

It's Putins words watered down for a global audience.  Why would they want to destroy the dollar? ohh wait 1 second..

I like max keiser because he's just fun to watch. he put a cool spin on the stories


I'm sure his words have an effect, but Russia Today is as politically bias towards a Russian agenda as al jazeera is to the Muslim world.    Just look at the scrolling news at the bottom.  "UKRAINE:  riot police are dismantling the protestors barricades in Kiev."  

What kind of news is that other than a Russian agenda?  Why don't they say the "Protests continue in Kiev dispite efforts by the police"  which is the truth.

Evey single thing on RT is designed to damage America and the EU as much as possible.  The whole channel is just Russian FUD!  Never trust anyone on that channel ever. Smiley

+  I really think Chinese are cashing out back to banks or any way they can to get back to fiat.  No doubt many have overseas accounts and are, getting it there before their gov. makes more new rules.  These sales are not money kept in exchanges imho,  it's money that is leaving the game for a while if not for good.

market is stable, not overbought/sold and price is creeping up

volume ath was today, isn't that good indicator of bot? maybe it bounces to 800+ and then consolidates somewhere at 600 +/-100

come back down to earth.  It won't be back above 650 for a long time, like 2014.  maybe Wink

statements like these are always bound to fail when it comes to btc price

Maybe.  but the price before btc fever in china was about $180.  It's now a month later and we hit over $1200, now it's $550 and it was dropping before this news.  The latest news today is just the short term nail in the coffin!

I have no doubt BTC will be back to $1200 and beyond, but to say this is happening anytime soon is just wishful thinking.  

you're saying that bitcoin will not be above 650 in 2014?

btw. i did not mention 1200.

I fail to see how...  we have 12 days to new year.  7 billion dollars (50%) wiped from the market cap in 12 days.  and it was still dropping before the latest news. The people in China investing are not kids with PC's and a few $$ they were real investors that could not give a shit about btc they just wanted to make money.  

I think it's doubtful we will see $650 anytime soon.  It's Christmas too, so some people will cash out a little for the festive season and new year.  

But if you think otherwise... tell me where you think the new investment will come from.

Were in for another sell off
With which coins?

www.blockchained.com

For the first time, ask volume decreased during the crash, proving that the sells were pure panic. By this time after the november, 900-450 crashcorrection, ask volume had doubled and reached eventually triple the magnitude. In april it also skyrocketed to 4-5 times the initial value.  Now it shows absolutely no will to even get back to pre-crash levels.
Honestly, I'm at a loss for how ask depth is a useful indicator here. We have no idea how many coins are waiting in the wings, off the books. And we don't know the extent of arbitrage being done by Chinese traders.

^This. I still can't believe there's such a huge gap between Gox & BTC China. May not be so easy to arbitrage. But was there always a 100 difference between prices?

BTCchina used to be higher than gox as I remember it.  by quite a bit.  now it's 100 lower.

I am totally lost, everything single bone in my body is telling me to skip this day...

all bears should  vote 0

Hmm yes maybe the bears would vote lower anyway.  but your prediction of $700 in 5 hours is vastly optimistic.

Next bottom will be in the $250-$300 range. Then rebound up to $500-ish. Finally, crash down to $100-$150 before end of year.

That would be nice to pick em up at that price again!  

I think about $390 on BTC-e before a rise to $550 then down again.
