Bitshares GUI release 2.0.170314
Big new wallet release including new design features and many other improvements.

This is actually the second release since my last post, so I will include the changes made in the previous version as well. In addition to a lot of bugfixes and behind the scenes improvements, the two major features included are:

- A new design provided by @etherdesign
- Automatic API node selection with fallback to a new node in case of errors

### The new look
We recently contacted @etherdesign and asked him to provide some new designs to improve the look and feel of the GUI. He provided us with some great sketches that were quickly implemented in the GUI, notably for Header, the Dashboard, Account pages, the Send dialog and in particular the Deposit/Withdraw page. Below are some screenshots of the new pages:

New deposit/withdraw page
</center>

### Automatic node selection
We've had a lot of issues with the default Openledger nodes being down or having connection issues. To prevent this from happening, this release includes a new node switching logic that will automatically choose a new node if the connection fails. It also polls all available nodes and stores their latencies, and connects to nodes by preference of their latencies to your location. This should ensure faster and more reliable connections.

 ### Download links
The installable clients for Linux and Windows are available here: https://github.com/bitshares/bitshares-core/releases/tag/2.0.170314. MacOS to follow soon.

https://bitshares.org/wallet has also been updated.

The full list of changes is shown below:

## New features
--------
- Make the account dropdown a direct link when only one account is present
- Add a 'choose automatically' option for API server selection.
- Add tooltips for bitassets, open.x and trade.x assets
- Add 'to' account to deposit/withdraw summary, and show full asset name
- Add several markets to dashboard list, filter out low volume markets

- Refactor AccountLeftPanel using etherdesign's designs
- Increase max. KAPITAL withdraw limit to 100k
- Improve the determination of low volume markets
- Refactor DepositWithdraw layout according to design by @etherdesign
- Add a dropdown to AccountSelector, use it in Transfer to show your accounts in From field
- Change Tabs styling to use segmented button class
- Modify the switch colors to make it very clear what's the checked state
- Update the header account link behaviour to always switch the active account, add notification
- Make the header balance value depend on the active account
- Put Explore, Help and Settings behind a dropdown using the cog icon
- Move the price chart controls below the chart itself
- Fetch 3x as much data for price charts
- API node hopping: fallback to next API server if current API is down
- API latency checks: all known API servers are regularly polled for latency, the ranking is used for fallback attempts
- Notifications for confirmed transactions instead of second OK button

Yes, Cass was building it for me earlier but think he got distracted, probably tomorrow.

I agree, and there are actually more updates in the pipeline as I haven't yet had the time to implement all of the designs made by @etherdesign.
