[QUOTE="Nosferax, post: 938959, member: 90549"] Just a big thank you from a fan! I have to say, of all the media frontend available today, MP has the most complete configuration tool. It may look a bit scary for a total neophyte at first, but with the help of the Wiki setting up is a breeze. All in all, it took me about 30 minutes to set it up and have it running. There is however a few thing that could be improved :) [LIST] [*]Have you ever considered moving the extension manager into the configuration tool? Having a unified interface would streamline the process even more. [*]Not all plugins available on the site are available in the extension manager. For example, the Avalon skin that I use wasn't there but was available from the site. Is that a bug? [*]Have you considered applying some naming standard? Sometime we read about Plugins, other time it's extensions... Again, this isn't a problem for me, but for someone new it may be a bit confusing. [*]In the Plugins section of the configuration tool, have you considered using a "click to select" instead of a "hover to select" action? For people who have some physical handicap and trouble using a mouse the "hover" method may be hard to use effectively since they may "pause" over another icon before reaching the buttons they want to use. [/LIST] But all in all, I'm really grateful for this program and I intend to make a donation as soon as I'm able to. Thanks again. Alain [/QUOTE]
