SMPDIGITAL  Don't waste 600MB of your bandwith and time, the brush size dissapears from the screen when increasing/decreasing it. Just a few GUI makeup (very dissapointing for two years of development), the tools are the same, only plug-in-like enhancements from CS2. Intel speed? yes it's fast but unusable because of the brush bug, only works under rosetta.

SMPDIGITAL  That's because you're used to iChat's performance which eats a lot more bandwidth, but it's a normal behavior in Yahoo and MSN, remember that they have been around since dial-up days. Besides, you can tweak it to be faster in preferences.

I bet this will be my MSN messenger too, it's even better than Adium, Thanks Yahoo!. There are only two must features left in this beta: multiple account support and chat rooms.

GAPS
Jun 4 2006
**...

SMPDIGITAL  The developing team of this app desperately needs a graphic designer for the graphics on the app and their website and even more someone that barely knows how to design a GUI, it's awful, cluttered and so non-Mac like. I would never pay $20 for this.

GAPS
Jun 5 2006

ARAMIS  The developer team consists of none other than little old me, coding away when I'm not doing that whole "day job" thing. If you're volunteering for the role of graphics designer, then you're hired! I should warn you though... The pay sucks, and the hours are lousy...

As far as the interface goes, yes it's cluttered, and there's no help for it whatsoever to even try to explain the way things work (I'm working on the help). Once you get used to it though, I think it's rather useable. GAPS stuffs a lot of functionality into few pixels. It's designed to use as much of its screen real estate as possible to show the images being viewed while still giving you some cue what keys you have mapped to what directories.

As for being un-Mac-like, granted the sorting drawer is a bit off, but that's a calculated deviation for the above reasons. If you've looked at DupeFinder or the key mapping setup, yes those could both use some help. There are pending bugs for both of those. There's a reason this isn't 1.0 yet, and there's also a reason there's no shareware nags or timeouts. I'm not the least bit offended if anyone thinks this work-in-progress isn't yet worthy of its $20 price tag. If you find it at all useful, I'll happily take bug reports or suggestions in lieu of payment.

If you do have any specific criticisms of specific parts of GAPS' interface, I'd love to hear them. Either here, via email, or in bugs filed against GAPS' bug tracker. GAPS' dev 'team' might be none other than Yours Truly, but I always try my best to implement any user requests or suggestions. There are a lot of pending bugs related to GAPS' UI that I'm getting to as I have time. GAPS is first and foremost my own image sorter, however, so frequently enough Form loses out to Functionality.

Please consider checking back in a couple of versions to see if GAPS better meets your expectations.

NEUTRALZONE  You miss the point. A password is not needed to download the file, but your admin password is needed to run it. I just downloaded it to my friend's MacBook because she asked me to install a temperature app, but she's not around and I don't know her admin password. Therefore the utility cannot run until she gets back.

LimeWire X
Mar 4 2006

SMPDIGITAL  The Language an application is written on is irrelevant as to whether runs on macintels or not, BTW almost every PPC application runs under Rosetta so that's not the issue.

I've investigated further and Limewire does NOT run under emulation, meaning that Limewire IS in fact a Universal Binary but it has a bug, Finder reports it as a PPC app, maybe is just a missed string.

WLOGON  If you need the information only once, then this advice is correct. If you want to check more often, while "Activity Monitor" just sits in the back, you have to grab the window and look for the correct line in order to get that information, besides the overload of informations, which comes not for free.

I love "Activity Monitor", but I am not running it all day long.
