 +=====New Method - Installing Qortal with the assistance of the Qortal UI =====
 +
 +====Step 1- Download the Qortal UI AppImage from qortal.org ==== 
 +
 +====Step 2 - Make the AppImage Executable (either right click it, properties, permissions, allow executing as a program checkbox) ====
 +
 +====Step 3 - Run the AppImage file ====
 +
 +===Say YES to installing Java, if your machine doesn't have Java installed, it will download and use a portable Java installation. Say YES to download the Qortal Core. ===
 +
 +That's it, Qortal Core will start, bootstrap, and get synchronized, and you're good to go!
 +
 +===(additional optional visual improvments) ===
 +
 +If you would like to have your Qortal-UI be named Qortal-UI, simply rename the AppImage file to Qortal-UI. (you do not need to keep the .AppImage extension) 
 +
 +If you would like to have the logo attached to the Qortal-UI, right click the file, properties, click the 'blank logo' icon, and browse for the qortal.ico file. It can be found in [[official_images_press_kit|]]
 +
 +You may also create 'launchers' so that the Qortal-UI will be in the menu, if you wish to do this, go to your menu editor, and create a new item, call it Qortal UI, then browse to the Qortal-UI AppImage file, attach the logo, and create. That's it!
