My personal thoughts :

- The "finished thumbnailing" animation it too much / long / crap. I think 
something more similar to the "gained focus" animation would be preferable.
- The default clock in digi mode is practically invisible when on lighter 
backgrounds. Just stating.
- The "start" module I think needs a more "start icon" look. No suggestions.
- Implement the color_classes.
