10 features Xolox should have

[thypentacle]

I like Xolox but I would like to see these features added:


1: You should be able to see a percent progress for uploading files.

2. You should be able to stop a search without having to close the found files window.

3. Small little thing, could you make those three buttons at the top left a little smaller? They take up too much space on my humble 800x600 screen. (I can't go any larger.)

4. Would be nice to be able to move around and resize the column headers. (Filesize, Progress, etc.) They are changable now but the 'Avg. s' one seems stuck.

5. Would also be nice to be able to change the background color. My eyes can barely handle the white glare for too long.

6. Also, I don't like the way your windows scroll. They should move when you scroll them, not be froze and display file names.

7. You should also not have to share your downloads folder because I like to test the files BEFORE I share them. This prevents the distro. of bad files.

8. Would also like to see the quality of the files listed for mp3's and the like.

9. I'd like to be able to ctrl click a list of downloads to be able to cancel them. Or you could add a button called cancel all downloads.

10. Finally, you should add a freeloader feature that you can adjust to keep people that don't share a certain amount of files from downloading from you. Say, 25 files or so. This would at least keep the 'download and run' people down a bit more.


All in all, Xolox is shaping up to be a great file sharing program, but not good enough for me to switch yet.
