It seems to fail to connect to the coin network. It finds 7 peers, but fails to connect to all of them. Stale peers ?
Edit: also, your post says "Solo mining with the wallet is the preferred method of mining.", but the mining link you give says "CPU Solo mine with wallet (Not recommended!)". Hrrhhmmm ?
Thanks for the feedback. When we update the wallet I will add new seed nodes. Meanwhile open the debug console and enter the following:
addnode kimocoin.com add
addnode kmc.1js.us add
I added this information to the OP.
About solo mining, CPU mining is not recommended but you can still use the wallet to solo GPU mine with vertminer. It's the best way to mine, but it's more difficult to set up and has higher variance.
you should definately get rid of the old logo. it's one of the worst coin logo's ever

I really agree with you guys. It's a terrible logo. My design skills are terrible, I don't think I'm the right person to fix it. I might be able to find one I like and edit it, but we would be much better off if we can find someone who can design a nice logo for us. I would then update the website, the OP, and the wallet with the new logo. I do like the yellow and black colors though. I would offer a 5M KMC bounty if anyone can make a nice one.
