lol, I knew Karel would still not like that. well, I don't mind for the GUI of the ccard to change, but the main thing that shouldn't change is the tar in the CL and how to access the ccard. that's how to keep our users from being lost when they switch. I do agree with Karel that the ccard is an eye candy thing instead of being a 'good informational window'. But I also agree with vivia about your plugin being GREAT! I just loved how you did it, simple, nice and sexy! and it would be a waste to remove that + it's easy to improve that instead of creating yet another thing. I would also like to say that we might be thinking of having nice and sexy eye candy GUIs instead of 'usable' ones.. for now we have non-usable and non-sexy ones, so let's make our users happy with some sexy windows, they deserve it! what u think ?
