DOOBIEXX  4.4 seems to have solved the one problem where the apps would crash when it asked for user admin pass but that is fixed... so far as I have seen.  
(Version 4.4)

DOOBIEXX  nice in layout and it does what you claim it does pretty well. I think this app would be a huge hit if you could somehow make a little screenshot of the website in a rollover so we can see what's on the site.

The style of the menu is very nice and I like the "smooth corner" look. A good example of what I am talking about with the screenshot on rollover is the application fantasktik. It has great roll over pictures but uses way to much resource and I don't like the layout, it's always blocking something.

A global hotkey to search the urls would be a nice feature when there is a bit of time. Overall I like the simple idea and think it could go for learning lessons from apps that have tried to perform this task. shovebox is also probably going to be the most mentioned comparision but shovebox does much more and is expensive shareware.  
(Version 1.0)

DOOBIEXX  Okay, thanks for being quick on a response. Somehow watermarking the psd or something of the sort could be done so buyers can use the psd to customize everything. I am definitely looking forward to a solution for buyers to receive a psd.  
(Version 1.0)

DOOBIEXX  Don't know about charging for system replacement folders. They are nice, you can get great icons at deviant art or macthemes2 so definitely a lot of free GREAT options are out there.

Say you REALLY like this set, which is nice I must admit, does the full paid version include a psd or anything more than just icons? Maybe a way we can use these as a template to match all our other labeled folders. Thanks. Nice work. Wish psd was included.  
(Version 1.0)

DOOBIEXX  Any of the little applets that call for authorization crash on SL. All the other simple ones like "home.app," "delete.app," and "up.app" work. Even "server.app" works. It's those that call for permission that crash about a second after the permission prompt arises. Fix that and they are 10.6.1 ready.   
(Version 4.2)

DOOBIEXX  They are open source. Simply go to their website gather the source and where you see textmate or bbedit etc... put textwrangler... a bit of tweaking and you've got yourself a droplet. Thank them for making it open source.  
(Version 2.0)

DOOBIEXX  It uses more resources than the dock, cleanup, mail, preview, system preferences, textmate, activity monitor, growlhelperapp.... I could go on for hours. Don't know what your using but I have a 2.6 core 2 duo with 4gb of ram. Pretty decent and nice macbook pro, running 10.6.1 but it still takes up way to many resources on my machine...   
(Version 0.4a)

DOOBIEXX  tabexpose is a great idea but will never live up to it's need which is quick easy layout, which it kind of has, and it can't be resource consuming like it currently is. If the footprint could be made smaller and it had less restrictions and becomes more "other" plugin friendly it will be usable. It causes too many crashes as you mentioned and I have had to abandon it sadly as I need glims/safari stand/saft more than I need tabexpose. No I don't use ALL three, in fact I only use glims. Which has a few problems of it's own so it's not looking so good for me. Friendly plugin interaction please mr. developer.  
(Version 2.1)

DOOBIEXX  weird, do you know for a fact the dev has quit? He has many very popular apps out so I don't see why he would abandon everything unless something very bad has happened to someone or someone close to him.

Summary: Do you have proof the dev has quit? Other than not responding to emails which could be explained in many matters why he couldn't get back to those emails...  
(Version 2.0.2)

DOOBIEXX  Yep, definitely not fun waiting but I can't wait just for this app to move on to snow leopard. Most other software has already been made compatable so although I am sure it is hard, it's going to happen eventually. Instance of an app relying on the dock is "quay," They had a fix within a couple days...

Sticky windows must be much much harder though as it's obviously taking a lot of time for the dev to release a version. I am satisfied knowing that he is working on it and not abandoning a great essential application, so I am much appreciation for him taking on the huge hurdle.  
(Version 2.4.1)

DOOBIEXX  Proxifier does have Snow Leopard support as it is but in the works is an update to make it even more SL compatible so don't throw mud on a product your not sure about.

I am sure though that proxifier is much more useful and powerful than macproxy. Yes, I have tried both... if you need only one proxy, no info then macproxy I guess... but if you want to chain proxies, be able to use http and socks together at the same time or by themselves on a system level like macproxy then I recommend you go with the much more powerful proxifier. I am in no way affiliated with proxifier; I am just a user whom has tried both apps since their inception and have come to the conclusion that proxifier is much more stable and feature-laden. Proxifier hit the ground running much before macproxy and remain ahead imo.  
(Version 1.1.1)

DOOBIEXX  40 bucks, what a steal! *cough* check recommend apps, save your time and/or money!  
(Version 2.0b101)

DOOBIEXX  All posts above this please read developer's notes before complaining here. It is in Beta, the bold is not just for fun. It's beta, take the risk if you can handle failure.  
(Version 3.0b1)

DOOBIEXX  Everybody's tun tap working with 10.6? I get it to "stick" for 1 minute max... It says connected to tun0 but after a couple minutes it no longer works... well it says' it does "connected" but no net stat shows no input or output, websites can't connect etc... Would love if anyone has a clue how I can fix this or if you have ran into the same problem. I don't think it is with viscosity but 10.6?.?.? Thanks.  
(Version 1.0.6)

DOOBIEXX  Developer collects personal information on users of his app. Self admitted not just non-sense. Apparently to stop piracy, but in doing so and the way the dev approached this problem is completely unethical! He has access to all our bank info!! Think twice, yeah I own the app but won't touch it with a ten foot pole. I'd love to hear the dev's response to this.

App looks pretty but if you want a good banking app try these: checkbook pro, money, moneywell, and/or ifinance. These four are great apps with great dev's. Simple ledger needs filled by - checkbook pro, more advanced budgeting - moneywell, online bank access - ifinance... Try 'em just keep your bank info away from squirrel!!  
(Version 0.8)

DOOBIEXX  this app is perfect.. better than all suggested, works fine on SL you have to choose from the other two options hotkey or... i forget anyway, can be used well in SL. Folderglance is overpriced.  
(Version 2.02)

DOOBIEXX  True more expensive but feature list is much longer than competitors. Depending on your needs you can go with a good free sync app or get busycal and have an all in one ical. Like the dev says it's ical on steroids. Personally I think it is worth the money, especially since it is a one and done cal app which suites my needs. It is fully functional shareware for 30 days though so you get a chance to see if it is worth the $30 they are asking. Remember this is still in beta! Can only get better, unless circumstances the dev can't control prevent further development but I don't think that is the case. I like the app, I like it in conjunction with ideskcal, calendar apps are a hard thing to choose and pay for, each app has it's ups and downs but this seems to have more up's than down's... Good post though man. Definitely points out the big issue of price. +1 from me.  
(Version 2.2.3)

DOOBIEXX  Works perfectly on SL. Visor is back!! No more having to use 32bit terminal... thank you to everyone who contributes on old blacktree products like this one... if it wasn't for benevolent people we would be screwed. Thank you. And it works great on SL folks 64bit confirmed. Grabbed it last night.  
(Version 2.1)

DOOBIEXX  Running together doesn't take up 25% of my system, of course different, but that is WAY too much cpu resources... border line ridiculous. I have been using Together for a very long time and love the app too, but instead of having to run the app all the time maybe a less resource consuming app add-on/helper can be implemented so we can enjoy all the benefits of having the together "tab" at the edge of our screen without crippling our system to a crawl. Kind of like the new devonthink "sorter" or ummm... (I know completely different kind of apps, just expressing the helper idea and how it's implemented well.) contactizer's helper... Little help app is resource conscious, lets you add/view info without opening the main app. Maybe some thought. Price comparison to devonthink pro office is blatantly one sided. Together is priced well and devonthink pro office will put you in the hole at an estimated $ 150. They do however offer 25% off if your affiliated with a school. Food for thought. Sorry to jack the thread but I did not think a new post was needed as we are both talking about reducing together's impact on the os when running from startup to shutdown. ReInvented Software, together's devs, are very responsive from my experience so hopefully something is in the works but we have to remember the more of us who complain about this issue the more likely they will move it up on the ever growing "to-do" list.  
(Version 2.2.12)

DOOBIEXX  easytunes is not free and not a great app at that. ET has as many stars as this app, one. There are better tools out there that are free. Go through mu's audio section and you will find what it is you need. No app does everything so when you see that claim I would recommend immediately rethinking even downloading the application let alone paying for crippled software. Do your homework, read, but don't buy into reviews like the one above. Easytunes is not good in my opinion and not free but actually ($10.) Take these reviews lightly, any joe can post whatever they please. That's how we have these three useless reviews.  
(Version 3.10)

DOOBIEXX  This app is so simple and would be a treat at the price of anything $9 or lower but $25 for a basic ledger is too much.   
(Version 1.2.4)

DOOBIEXX  That can't be serious? Also what does that have to do with simbl... sorry if I am shortsighted here. I agree, ridiculous conversation so much so that if it wasn't fake I would be quite concerend but from what I said it was one idiot, spewing non-sense on Mr. Solomon. Damn, weird, would like to know why that is there.

Back on with this plugin but I install like the user above and nothing of simbl is uploaded expected it's scriptingadditions in the main library... Can someone fill me in a bit please? On of these topics lol. Thank you.  
(Version 0.9.1)

DOOBIEXX  it is in beta so keep that in mind. If it's beta, they want you to find the bugs.  
(Version 1.2b1)

DOOBIEXX  Anybody find igetter popping up in your browser contextual menu, specifically Safari? I can't get it to work. [with Snow Leopard.] The app runs but when I try to have it in my contextual items so I can select links, control (right) click them to "download selection." No more prompt. I want to know if these is just me or others experiencing the same?  
(Version 2.7.5)

DOOBIEXX  ANDYMOONAR Shame it is not free :-/. Are you kidding me? The app is free it just won't get as much attention and lack the feature set that the paid version has. Most shareware apps aren't even available/working with snow leopard but this developer has made the paid version and the FREE version work just fine on Snow Leopard. It could have a week trial period as shareware... Which would have been useless to everyone but could prove that it worked well when sites are updated and what is updated. Be thankful, if you like the Free version which you can use forever then use it forever but if you really like the app and dev and want more features pay for the full version.

It is free. I hope my comment's a bit more accurate than your one liner.  
(Version 0.7)

DOOBIEXX  Soooooo you recommend what alternative(s)? Or are there none in your opinion. When I read something like this, I ask myself what other apps you are using instead and why none are mentioned... Whenever I read a straight shot at the app, no suggestions just jabs it makes me question the validity of the review. Competitor? Disgruntled friend? That's why this site exists, so we can trade info/compare our feelings about apps. You just said no, offering us no other alternative and the review/comment is, well, useless to us. Thanks for your opinion but what app(s) is/are not as intrusive? I appreciate the post and look forward to a response so I can try one of your "picks" out. Thanks.  
(Version 1.0b20)

DOOBIEXX  You running PPC? If not this app is no good for you. And yes, rapidshare link is not a good sign. Many other apps do this plus backflips, quickeys, spark....  
(Version 4.0)

DOOBIEXX  Nice app, a bit expensive but then again compare with it's competitors and you'll feel like your at the "dollar store." Fine app, great company, but still too rich for my blood. Araxis makes great apps, I own the cheapest one, lol, dupe remover/locator.  
(Version 2009.1566)

DOOBIEXX  Great app, through and through. Free so please donate to keep this app going. Offers many extra features that activity monitor doesn't. Could be a complete replacement or a supplement but your sure to find something you like out of it. Very functional and well laid out and intuitive for the average user to grasp full control over their "machine." Thank you atMornitor team!  
(Version 2.0.1)

DOOBIEXX  Why does Sonar leave all those files even though the app was uninstalled with it's uninstaller and your company sells a removal app named "yank." As I said in the promo, I think these apps look okay but in reality they are updated for new operating systems and then support/updates are no where to be seen until next MAJOR OS upgrade. '07? But now yank, sonar, etc... have been updated and put on mu promo. I get the feeling it is all about the money and not quality or customer service. Fseventer does what this app can, if you need permanent logs you will have a pretty long database for this app. Hell, you sell an uninstaller that can't uninstall your own apps completely. As I said in the promo.... be wary. If you like it, buy it. Maybe you see something we don't. My observations have shown infrequent updates... all I am saying. My 2 cents.  
(Version 2.0)

DOOBIEXX  Ummm, I don't know why you would write something like that. I am sure the developer could make updates and not release them but twice or three times a year max like you said but what good does that do?

When he can offer his customers a fix or a new feature he wants to give it to his supporters asap, rather than have it sit in an updated development or have a requested feature and wait 6 months to release it just because. I am lazy as well, I hate downloading so many apps when there are a ton of updates but if the app has implemented a way to download or let you know their is a new version without having to come to a site like this to check if the app has been updated it is no problem. If it is freeware that is updated all the time with no way to check for updates via the app then I would complain. But for an app you pay for, I would take every update that comes my way.

Great Example is the great app by agile, 1password. It is updated pretty much twice a week for the last year, building up to their version 3.0 release, I guess now waiting for snow leopard. Compare the two. I think both are great apps and most agree with me but obviously there is a chasm between others, you, and myself.

Now I know why nobody else responded to your post. It's just ridiculous waste of time. Not a beneficial post.

To sum it up your complaining about a developer staying active and updating his apps as soon as he can whether it be a simple fix or a huge release, he works to implement new features and requests as they come in instead of letting a laundry list grow and make his customers pay. So I would think his customers are happy with updates, however they come.

## In the end, you are your own person, if you don't like having updates frequently you don't have to update. Nobody forces you to update your app whenever a new release comes out so just update it every six months. Everyone is happy. ##  
(Version 3.0.2)

DOOBIEXX  Very promising, It could either continue to get more stable, more features, more users or get too bloated. The concept is beautiful in it's simplicity, I hope it stays that way and in the background.

Great job on this app so far. I really like it, Thank you.  
(Version 1.1b4)

DOOBIEXX  ThisService is the answer. Go to iusethis.com and check it out there. It will turn any script,Truly I mean any script, i.e. bash, applescript, python, etc... etc... up to the "more" serious languages like C.  
(Version 2.1)

DOOBIEXX  Actually I found the culprit to be "Scroll Faster" under the main tab, appropriately named, "Super Scroll." The app continually goes back to 1x and not what I leave it on... around 7-8x.

Disabled that part with the click of the checkbox and others seem fine.. at least coasting and what I have tried so far. Had to go into the trackpad section of the system preference pane and put scrolling on max speed until this issue can be fixed... hopefully just a temporary fix and smart scroll will start to work again. *crossing fingers*  
(Version 3.1.3)

DOOBIEXX  I can't get it to work now with this version. b4 worked fine on my intel core 2 duo. Now I need to find where I can get that version again.. or a fix!  
(Version 3.1.3)

DOOBIEXX  Might want to think of a new name. Soundboard is already taken by ambrosia software. I don't know the legality or if it's trademarked etc.. but just thought you would like to know before too many people discover your app, for confusion sake.   
(Version 2.0b)

DOOBIEXX  It's not just tiger, leopard has the same problems as I am dealing with them now. Yeah, using safari without Glims is a real pain... For a free app the folks at machangout are on top of issues. Great stuff.  
(Version 1.0b19)

DOOBIEXX  Oops, wrote too soon. I am having crashes whenever selecting an item, the app crashes. I will get my log later and email you the info. Thank you, still... just a bump. I am running leopard 10.5.7 up to date on an intel, early 08.  
(Version 1.0.8)

DOOBIEXX  Takes our comments to heart! Props to you Mr. WetFish, thank you for making a great app and listening to us complain about missing features. Thanks for making it free.  
(Version 1.0.8)

DOOBIEXX  Thank you so much! Gets better all the time. Now with Sparkle now under the hood I am good to go. Up and up! Cheers!  
(Version 2.2.2)

DOOBIEXX  @dev, since you are nice enough to make this great app free for us, donationware I don't think the $5 price tag should be listed as some members might see that and immediately go to something free when they already can get the best in sitesucker for what you think it is worth... It has saved me hours and hours and pain in my hands lol. Thanks for the great app again!  
(Version 2.2.4)

DOOBIEXX  Thanks Wetfish, I really like the app. I agree with Bill though,having the true value of how much you've spent is a definite especially since some are given away at ridiculously cheap prices or for free even. Manually entering prices will have to do. I really can't think of another way around the price problem, maybe an applescript of a sort tied into itunes...  
(Version 1.0.7)

DOOBIEXX  Since this is freeware it is a pain to keep up with the current version as you submit a new version twice a week at least. I appreciate the price and updates very much, please don't get me wrong, but could you implement sparkle or some other auto-update feature for us that don't have time to check for new versions all the time? Thank you, I like the product... seems useful so far, I hope it continues to grow...  
(Version 2.2.1)

DOOBIEXX  we can only hope so...  
(Version 1.0)

DOOBIEXX  Cleanapp has fixed so many bugs while this developer has been napping. Now Cleanapp has not missed one file while uninstalling and now doesn't let you delete important system programs which pretty much every item has to touch. Now just click next to the system file or "guarded" file and it tells you which apps other than the one your uninstalling the file affects. Before, you would have to un-check the important sys files but now it is 100% more accurate and offers way more features. You can archive and delete so you never are totally deleting a file if your unsure....

All in all, cleanapp has been upgraded how many times while yank hasn't been updated in 3+ years.... Trust me, look at cleanapp before you check this program. Yank had promise in '07. Now it is just a money waster imo like appcleaner, appzapper, etc.. etc... just do a simple comparison on which app catches the most... you will then see which is the best... and safest for your needs but I recommend, Cleanapp after just giving this another try.  
(Version 2.0)

DOOBIEXX  I have to say, I have used this app for a long time now, not as a complete replacement for istat but for it's other great features like it's quick access to utilities and also the logging. Heck, you can't buy it yet. It is essentially freeware until the final release. I don't think this app deserves the criticism below. The developer has been updating this app constantly and with every update we get more features with less system resources needed. Memory usage is way too much, but for now it is still a beta... let the dev continue to perfect his product before charging for it like many other developers. Look at it from a different angle. It's not nearly as bad as you claim. You can't ask for more than constant updates, which the app gets, so.... I like it, and I think it has a very bright future. Give the dev a chance, quit with the 1 star ratings and give the dev inspiration, not discouraging remarks. My opinion, nothing more, nothing less.  
(Version 1.18)

DOOBIEXX  Awesome app that definitely deserves it's full price, operating a lot faster now. Thank you for not crippiling the app and please keep us going with updates. I highly recommend anyone looking for this sort of app to check them all and check this last... I don't think you will be switching back going to another. Definitely worth the try. Cheers!  
(Version 2.3.4)

DOOBIEXX  Completely agree. It was the intuitive simplicity that drove me to macjournal a long time ago over the competitors who have come and stuck around. macjournal is too bloated. It's supposed to be simply a "journal," not a "everything you could want to do with text on the web or your personal computer." Mariner makes good products but it's getting worse it seems. Definitely some nice features added along the way but back to basics would be the best, at least for us users who bought the app when it was what we wanted.  
(Version 5.1.4b2)

DOOBIEXX  go look at cleanapp, that app can do backflips over appcleaner.   
(Version 1.2.2)

DOOBIEXX  BEST UNINSTALLER HANDS DOWN!! SYNIUM, THE LATEST UPDATES ARE AMAZING, NO MORE PROBLEMS WITH SYSTEM FILES BEING LINKED, THE OPTION TO SEE WHAT OTHER APPS ACCESS A FILE IS PERFECT!! CLEANAPP REIGNS AS KING OF UNINSTALLERS.  
(Version 3.1.4)

DOOBIEXX  default folders is a dead attempt at making finder easy to deal with, having shortcuts for users with their pretty gui while really you can achieve all of these things a lot faster and with freeware.

1) I recommend you look at pathfinder for a complete replacement of finder, fully integrated, and check the forums for a hint about getting finder off your dock. I know that is annoying for some pathfinder users.

2) Look into something like "OMC" where you can add contextual items and while at abracode grab their app shortcuts so you can assign hotkeys to your contextual menu items.

3) Check out limit-point's contextual programs, great apps, great developer, free lifetime updates if you buy the utility package which has 20+ very useful apps. And they are constantly developing and updating so you will get more apps for free as time goes on.

4) All in all, default folder x eats up way too much memory for what it's rudimentary capabilities.   
(Version 4.2.1)

DOOBIEXX  that was posted in 2007... Get more up to date info to share before yelling fire.  
(Version 1.5b5)

DOOBIEXX  I thought this would be the end of xmenu! Thank you so much for keeping it free and updated!! Thank you.  
(Version 1.9)

DOOBIEXX  Russel, those comments are really off. I agree with the user who brought up this argument that these apps such as together and little secrets are as good or better.

If you want a really flexible app go with something simple that can do encryption like your mac! mac's has native ways of encrypting items. File Vault of course but turn you can also use disk utility to make an image of where the info is stored and encrypt that vault... You would have to encrypt it so set it up where you have to enter the package to even get to the data and then after that put it where it needs to be. Simple applescript or automator action work.

app for just notes that has publish, encrypt, multi-databse, very smart app that lets you configure everythig you want but it is great for users who JUST USE NOTES, although. If there is an image it will copy over to inotepad once in a note do what you want with it.

Hope it helps someone.  
(Version 2.0b5)

DOOBIEXX  openmenu x is much better than fruitmenu, this is native... fruitmenu is haxie that barely does it's basics. Oh yeah, it's constantly developed, I guarantee if openmenu x and fruitmenu don't work, openmenu x would be the first fixed and probably within the first week of the final snow leopard release.  
(Version 1.05)

DOOBIEXX  Wonderful in simplicity but uses WAY too much system resources for what it does. Needs more juice than full featured application launchers like launchbar and quicksilver. Would like to use this but if quicksilver and launchbar can do the same + a ton more is it worth to use one of them and find a use for quick launching as well...

I know it is free, thank you, I REALLY like this app and would love to switch but as of now I can't. Even though it's free I would be happy to donate if I knew it would go to the future development of this app.  
(Version 0.3.5)

DOOBIEXX  sizeup has the option of getting rid of the menubar icon if you don't want. The real thing is sizeup is an application while fiwi is a simple script one trick pony. SizeUp's footprint is extremely small and does more than just finder windows. Compare 4 way or 2 way. Thanks for fiwi but charging for updates to this app! CRAZY!!  
(Version 2.0.2)

DOOBIEXX  I'm waiting for 1.0  
(Version 0.9.3.15)

DOOBIEXX  Great work Marc, your always giving us these little but essential apps. Even throwing in a check for updates! No offense, love your site but don't want to have to check it every time you tweak something. Thanks for the good works!  
(Version 1.7)

DOOBIEXX  Yeah it's a nice app but the developers haven't even sent out activation keys to those who bought pre-sale. Hell, even the warez scene has cracked it and those of us who paid are still waiting. Bit sad.  
(Version 4.0)

DOOBIEXX  make ibank faster and less clunky and this widget wouldn't be needed. Yes, I do own ibank... unfortunately.  
(Version 2.1)

DOOBIEXX  Love this simple app, does everything you need unobtrusively. Keep up the great work and please never let it become more complicated, only more sophisticated. Simplicity makes it a pleasure.  
(Version 1.13)

DOOBIEXX  Love it! if it could use a bit less system resources and development continues I think the app will have an extremely bright future. Many f10 studio users are going to love the grouping of apps as it has been taken out in their new UI.

Hope the dev's of bevy keep it up and stay in tune with their user's requests and preferences. A+ rarely do I buy an app on the spot....  
(Version 1.0.1)

DOOBIEXX  lame making us pay for an upgrade. Go to www.irradiatedsoftware.com and grab sizeup... does what fiwi 2.0 can + plenty more and it's truly donationware. This is shareware.

With sizeup you determine the price, what it's worth, not what the dev thinks the app is worth. Shame, instead of attracting new customers fiwi is just driving them to the competition. I get SIZEUP makes of TWOUP  
(Version 2.0)

DOOBIEXX  The best To-Do app out there. When it comes to the big ones like things, omnifocus, the hit list can barely do what actiongear can and cost double or in some cases (THL) triple the cost. Grab this and enjoy more features than anyother app of it's kind. Only problem is this app doesn't get the proper exposure it deserves and if that remains the case the dev will one day have to stop supporting it. Save your money and buy this app. Please try out the others and see how much of your computer's memory is used. Actiongear is lightweight and includes things like screenshot so you don't need apps like littlesnapper or anything else. Try the app, you'll be glad you did.  
(Version 1.0.4)

DOOBIEXX  still no auto-update within the app and to make it even worse, if you paid for the app they don't even email you the new version. I don't get it. Promise but no passion at getting customers what they want. I would not recommend this app to anyone until items such as this are fixed... instead look at limit-point and buy their utilities package which has stocklookupMBI (does what this app does + more for the same price, + you receive all their other useful utilities)  
(Version 8)

DOOBIEXX  I like it, simple and can still be used with a ton of differing accounts easily. Hopefully they will keep up the good work with this latest release.  
(Version 1.4)

DOOBIEXX  This app is by far the best tagging app. One click and you easily apply tags to anything from websites to finder windows. Not sure about your problem before with iphoto as I don't use it but iphoto has it's own tagging system.... I think if you contact the dev your problems will be fixed. Don't quit on tags!! It's very intuitive and powerful.  
(Version 1.2)

DOOBIEXX  Finally! I have been waiting ages for this app to get it very very right. Very customizable, most and easiest for simple app launchers imo. Please keep up the great work guys and I am definitely donating! Appreciate the donation-ware perspective! Thanks again.  
(Version 3.6.4)

DOOBIEXX  I second this request! Very annoying to have to constantly update manually. Come on Dev! You made this great app for us now help us keep it up to date! Thanks for making our lives easy, hopefully you will find a way to make updating your app easy. Thanks for attention to the request.  
(Version 0.6.3)

DOOBIEXX  AlphaOmega software in GENERAL, is terrible, and in my opinion quickly thrown together and put on the market as an application which does so much more than it really can. GUI's are always sloppy from them. Every app I have tried, I immediately found a free better alternative. Now when you have alternatives that are free and do more than your app you have a problem, but AphaOmega relies on "churning" out bad applications all the time and charging current customers, like the complaint below mine, who had purchased the overpriced app in the past and charge for every single little upgrade. Upgrades that fix problems not even adding features.  
(Version 3.1)

DOOBIEXX  I would be lost without this nifty little app. Using it with OMCedit and other contextual menu app I have same me a ton of time. LOVE Abracode. You can make your own contextual menu item and then assign it a hot-key with shortcuts. All their apps work amazingly well by themselves and together. Can't recommend the app more. I just hope it stays up to date with OS advances.  
(Version 1.1.3)

DOOBIEXX  only ppc, wow '09, didn't know an app wouldn't be UB  
(Version 1.0)

DOOBIEXX  ARTOORO, your totally correct. I love this app in all ways. Beautiful, works, and responsive dev. I can appreciate it more after using all the other "crap" openvpn gui clients.  
(Version 1.0.4)

DOOBIEXX  don't multi-post, please. If these apps were more popular it would be terrible having duplicate comments from so many people.

I gave you the answer on the ip in menubar page.   
(Version 1.0)

DOOBIEXX  Easy answer: IP in menubar is coded in real basic, an easy language to learn, visual, pretty much anyone that can drag and drop can code an app in rb. They are not as pretty as cocoa apps, not as fast, and as you noticed not as small in terms of app size but it also hogs resources more than a clean cocoa app.

RB is really for people who either don't know much coding or who want to make multi-platform apps since rb can be ran on any OS. If your on a mac, use cocoa apps and in this case, ipmenulet.

Both apps are opensource at their respective sites so go and play!!  
(Version 4.1)

DOOBIEXX  HMURCHISON he is reviewing the product. When someone makes a review they do not just look at one aspect like UI for instance and judge the app on that, I personally want a review of every aspect of an application, i.e. Customer service, price, easy of use, etc. This was a review of the company, their legal agreement... are all important and this is a review of the company. I am glad that was posted, I for one am now going to download the app as I feel the same way. If he would have gone somewhere to "rant" I would be none the wiser to read through all the legalities of every single thing I put on my computer. It is a review, a review of the Company, UI and a couple other items when he references spideroak having a worse ui but better agreement that your data is safe. I do see where you are coming from, but lets have macupdate mods take care of those issues, if it was an issue.  
(Version 0.6.507)

DOOBIEXX  You will never EVER be able to get rid of every file by every app. If you want to do that, get fseventer and watch what files an installed app makes in real time and then record those so if you want to delete the app, you can do it manually. Most of us are not going to spend days using easy find to find 4kb files ALL uninstaller's miss. Can't be perfect everytime but this app needs much improvement to even compete.  
(Version 1.0.2)

DOOBIEXX  Love the company but a lot of the apps developed recently look and are a lot "lighter" in features and ease. Cleanapp is by far the best in this department. There are numerous apps that can do all of this. New ideas = new apps, not just new app = more money so develop a project to bare essential performance and then make a new one. I rather 1 great app than 5 okay apps.  
(Version 1.0.1)

DOOBIEXX  long time ipaste user and never experienced any problems with fruitmenu going.

That being said, I have moved away from ipaste to launchbar and everything flows beautifully.  
(Version 3.7.1)

DOOBIEXX  I would have to say that combining windows would make it more convoluted in my opinion. I like the 9 step walkthrough where you pick and choose all the tid bits of info and differences in the backup you want to make. Once you have made say a bootable you like, you save it and anytime you want a bootable open that window. When you want a simple one folder backup, again create the settings and save it as it's own "program."

Just the other side of the coin, I see where your coming from but I prefer how the devs have it and have kept it for a long long time. I also enjoy this software and recommend it to anyone doing any kind of backup as it is simply the best.

@dev - TOO EXPENSIVE!!  
(Version 6.0.7)

DOOBIEXX  Great software that's very stableand works perfectly for having a window vertical or horizontal half-way.

They make another program named SizeUp, which I have suggested up top, made by the same dev's but is shareware... it costs $1.35 or something like that lol, they just ask that you make some sort of donation if you like and use the app. They ask that you pay whatever you like based on how useful the software is to you.

This app allows you to put a window in the top right corner or left corner or bottom right/left... you can easily have 4 different or same application windows easily placed on your screen for easy comparison or drag-n-drop. Great app. Definitely check out: SIZEUP , click link above.  
(Version 1.0.2)

DOOBIEXX  only PPC? Mistake or are there still people coding apps just for ppc's?  
(Version 0.9rc1)

DOOBIEXX  Love notemind, I have two products from this dev, notemind and cleanapp. Synium makes great software and updates are very common even though they have 6-8 big shareware projects going on. Updates are necessary, if a dev wants my money.

One thing about notemind I don't like is no hotkey for entering text in whatever template/form... guess unsanity comes in here... Otherwise, best mindmap application out and I have licenses to a few $100+ which try to do what nm does so simply. Of course those expensive mindmap apps can become confusing for one and lots more work to accomplish same goal.

Oh yeah, takes up WAY too much ram.  
(Version 1.5.10)

DOOBIEXX  Here my friend, you will like this application plugin if you hate window's resizing. Go to the developer of butler's site which is www.manytricks.com and you will see on the left side of the page a link for a SIMBL plugin named "Block Window Resizing." I guess you can figure out what the plugin does. Hope it helps, if not, let me know by responding to this and I will come back and give a few more ideas of how to stop pesky webmasters.  
(Version 3.2)

DOOBIEXX  alphaomega software is plain terrible. Besides most of the apps being truly useless as the end result can be accomplished with leopard's built in features as listed below, their apps are terribly expensive and are ugly and don't even perform well. They just strikeout on every app they have ever attempted.

@AO - Quit making software or focus on ONE project and make it a decent app instead of having 20 useless ones. Sorry, the truth hurts.  
(Version 2.4)

DOOBIEXX  I had ditched you control after I switched computers but eventually it came to mind and I gave it another shot. The program never gives problems, only thing I can complain about is the spinning beach ball when navigating through the menu's. Beach ball Doesn't slow anything down just don't know why it appears at all. Even allows me to click something else while it's still the "beach ball."

It's stability, small footprint, and ridiculous amount of options/menus it is definitely worth giving a shot. You will be very surprised. Great app and becomes more stable with each update.   
(Version 1.7.2b3)

DOOBIEXX  I don't know why all these ip apps take up so much system resources. drives me crazy as I would like to see ipmenulet or ipmenu or bwanadik run all the time but they just eat up way more memory than they should. opening a browser and going to a proxyjudge gives your ip address with less system resources... not against bwanadik, just an issue with every "quick ip" app I have come across.  
(Version 3.2.1)

DOOBIEXX  Bug or possible fix?

Can't get window 1 of application Finder." - Error Thanks for all your hard work this farI love it. but one essential thing is missing from the scripts. They need to be able to open a finder window if there are no finder windows already being displayed. You get the error listed above.

It would be cool if it could launch a finder window if there is none open. Could get rid of the finder dock item all together!  
(Version 2.3)

DOOBIEXX  HA, 5 stars on an app/dev that everybody else dislikes and then to top off the BS, you make a completely unnecessary comment about a posting user... This has nothing to do with onyx, not even similar app types... *cough* dev promoting his own wares *cough*

Ahhh I love MU sometimes, not when I read reviews like yours. Sorry Rick.  
(Version 1.8.1g)

DOOBIEXX  Interface is excellent, simplicity... can shovebox encrypt your notes? Can it lock your notes? Can it instantly export to ipod or ipublish, or email? Multiple databases that save and make backups on their own? I use both apps, they are completely different. I forget what other item you mentioned but I am positive it can't do a 1/3 of what inotepad can.  
(Version 2.4.2)

DOOBIEXX  If you haven't gotten the idea from the descriptions below, do not buy this app! It is extremely over priced. $100 for a ledger? Get an app like Checkbook Pro if you want a ledger. So many financing apps, nobody should have to pay $100 for something that can be done on pen and paper. It's a simple ledger! Can't even function properly as that. Unless dev totally reworks the app, stay far away.  
(Version 2.3.2)

DOOBIEXX  Nice lol, uncompress and decompress as two different things. They are synonymous words. Little grammar never hurt anyone.   
(Version 1.1)

DOOBIEXX  WOW! WASTE OF MONEY AS DEVELOPER CAN'T EVEN KEEP UP WITH APPLES UPDATES...

1) YOU HAVE TO PAY FOR EVERY SOFTWARE UPDATE

2) EVEN IF YOU WERE WILLING TO PAY LIKE I WAS STUPID ENOUGH TOO, DEVELOPER JUST DISAPPEARS.

3) NOW YOU CAN EITHER, NEVER UPGRADE PAST 10.5.5 OR WELL NEVER UPGRADE PAST

10.5.5, I HOPE NOBODY ELSE GET'S SCAMMED.

4) DEV = JOKE, PLAIN AND SIMPLE. DO NOT BUY PRODUCT, OH WAIT, DEVELOPER IS AWOL.

4 GOOD REASONS NEVER TO DEAL WITH THIS DEVELOPER IF YOU EVEN WANT TO CALL HER THAT.  
(Version 10.5.5)

DOOBIEXX  "All this needs to be made clear if you wanna play with the big boys. Pretty, though." - Thanks for laying it all out for us, I think you should contact the developers and tell them they should hire you if they ever want to be successful. Completely unnecessary comment.

You must be a "big boy", please link me to your app?

And no, I don't have anything to do w/ this program or dev.   
(Version 2.7)

DOOBIEXX  Do you work for google? or a cop? If not, relax and don't get so worked up over things that really don't have anything to do with you.

No offense but your grilling the dev, and from the question scheme it seems you have no affiliation w/ google or anyone attached to the icon or you would know the answers your asking.

If google cares so much, they can take care of the problem. If not, let's leave "royalty" disputes out and simply discuss the software. Now that I think of it... do you have right's for that name? I could have swore I saw someone else on the net use the same nick, you two should really square off old west style and see who gets to keep what. j/k, serious though, I hope your response and my response to your response gets deleted. No need for it to be here.  
(Version 0.3)

DOOBIEXX  No offense, but I think it would better all MU members if your opinion was a bit more subjective. To you Buddi is best, I , personally despise the program. So obviously you can't just say Buddi is BEST. You can say in my opinion it's best but, it's not the best by a long shot. Runs like a one-legged donkey, my opinion on the soft. Funny how opinions differ.  
(Version 2.9.1)

DOOBIEXX  I know I am responding a year and a half to late, but dev's contact info is: rick@desertsandsoftware.com - probably wasn't there when you looked years+ ago.  
(Version 1.7.1)

DOOBIEXX  I agree w/ the poster now below me. Decent dupe app but for 20$ it is definitely not worth the change. No offense to Araxis but all of your products are over priced. If the apps were reasonably priced I believe you would in the end have more customers. Just my .02 . Wish I could afford Araxis programs, but right now, there is no way I can sleep easy paying the list prices.

Please bring the prices down or get with MU and do a one day deal, I think your company would benefit from more customers at a lower price. I don't need to explain economics, you know what your doing. Just wish they were priced fairly.  
(Version 2008.38)

DOOBIEXX  Awesome to see this project under development again! The only true gui for testing wireless network's. If you can't get kismac to work properly then check their support forums' which are filled with info. Your second best option for testing wireless networks is honestly switching out of os x and load a virtual machine with Backtrack 3, and have access to every "test" tool imagined, but for OS X, kismac is the one and only with a gui. If your good with command lines get aircrack-ng through darwin ports and use that.  
(Version r318)

DOOBIEXX  All I can do is hope, it's going to take a while for me to go back to cleanapp, which was an excellent program when I bought it, but the CPU hogging has been ridiculous. the daemon has to be ran with less memory being used especially virtual ,,,, this is running on a notebook with 2.6ghz core2 duo and 4 gb of ram. Also, it has been throwing in unattached essential preference file to most if not all the applications for uninstalling. This is a bit quicker but still not as fast as it used too/needs to be.  
(Version 3.0b12)

DOOBIEXX  I'm commenting my own review hmmm, I know the developer responded to the post about the external not being visible and that it was fixed a few versions back but I for some reason still have the same problem. Other than that, if you want to be updated when your ip changes, buy limit-point's bundle if that's not needed, then check out the simpler freeware apps, but for the value, you can't beat this piece of software. I feel my original comment was a bit harsh but it didn't fit my needs, and I expressed that. Must be my router or something but when connected to other connections the developer was right, external can be displayed, and displayed correctly. Just not my network, or apparently the network of the guy who posted underneath me. Just wanted to clear that up and also let those who read the review to know that they should definitely check the app out along w/ the other recommended apps listed, out of the "notify upon ip change" apps. shareware or freeware ipsentinel is the best imo for notifications, hands down. I'm actually running this and ipmenulet, menulet when on my network and sentinel when I am out and about. LP packages are by far the most generous I have seen, and they actually give you useful apps.  
(Version 1.0.10)

DOOBIEXX  Things, is by far the most intuitive and versatile to-do software available and it's still in beta status. I have no idea why anybody would post the other recommended applications because there is simply, in my opinion, nothing comparable to Things. The only "thing" that worries me is that once it's out of beta and they are charging for the software it will be appropriately priced. I think the developers will make a smart decision and make the software affordable so there will more customers paying the smaller fee than fewer customers paying the higher price and in the end more users = more money no matter how expensive the soft. I don't review or comment on much software, but this app is so amazing I was dumbfounded to read the programs others posted as "similar" and recommended if Things didn't pan out. Great app, and I hope to see the final release soon! Please continue listening to your customers because your doing an excellent job!  
(Version 0.9.4.1)

DOOBIEXX  Simply put, perfect for my needs. Automatic update of your external ip in the menubar when it senses a change, and if you can't wait that 20 seconds you can refresh it yourself, it has never failed to pick up the new and accurate ip. Exactly what I was looking for, no bells and whistles just display my external in the menubar! Great App, from the developer, if more programs are to be released by the group I would definitely check it out. Beautiful in it's simplicity.  
(Version 1.0)

DOOBIEXX  limit-point makes good software and I was hoping this would be as I thought but like the response below me, it merely picks up my internal ip and does not show external at all. If your looking for a program to display your external ip address in the menubar with automatic refresh and just a click to refresh it yourself I would check out the Free IPMenulet. It won't perform tasks such as emailing you when your external changes but it will show your external, and update itself before you even have the chance to refresh it most of the time. Never had a glitch w/ IPMenulet. I also never had a glitch w/ IPSentinel... it just wouldn't pick up my external over my network. Of course it could be an error on my part but this is my experience. Try both out, see which suits you best and go from there. limit-point is constantly updating which is nice, IPMenulet not as much but then again it doesn't need an update as it is quite a simple little bugger that does the trick.
