et voilà is a great assister to others; your light through the dark tunnel

Sam I think we all congradulate you on the ultrapeer level. This is not what we meant. I'll do some suggestions for you relying on the code of the gui:

1)resume button doesn't work, it should since a download often stop, even if the host is still on Gnet ex; I have to clear download, then click download again in seach results wich is a pain. (for rare files you can't do another search to find more stuff ie French stuff)

2)the "could not download, awaiting sources" sucks a lot, it should say "new specific search is necessary to continue download"

3)the upload tab is occupied in majority with place to see searches coming... not very useful, it could be an option, and it confuses the casual user.

4)when starting, there is a dialog for upgrading to pro, the problem is that for foreign languages as French you don't see the buttons to click ok, you have to press escape, and newbies, especially mac users are utterly lost.

5)there shouldn't be a connection window by default (is it?) Newbies don't use it, and while being at connections, please hardcode the leaf connections to Limewire engine clients only. (gnucleus based suck).

6)please use unicode or à la bearshare change letters ie é to e instead of /e for dealing with other languages, search results are suffering a lot from this, for exemple I have to search okoum instead of okoumé to get results...

7)please update a FAQ and post it sticky on all Lw forums, to help the majority of newbies

8)the look could be better, a way to get ideas is to use other P2P software as Shareaza (beautiful gui for windows), bearshare, emule and even kazaa, keep in mind that EVERYONE is used to the way kazaa works, convergence can be good. Remind to try other programs, they often have good ideas gui wise.

I'm sure others can point you to lacks in the LW gui, and to them post them in this thread!

Merci
