I'm pretty sure I included some kind of disclaimer and made it clear my "review" was intentionally superficial. I would usually check bugzilla and file a few reports if I was using the software myself too. (And I definately mentioned how I prefer to find existing ideas which seem to work well and embrace and extend them.) Any chance you could provide more recent screenshots? I'll try building GParted from CVS soon (recent tarballs are easier for me, pervesely pre-packaged binaries aren't). > Also, the latest releases fix most of the things you guys > mentioned (stockicons, menuitems) and the 'apply' button has been there > from the beginning. :) > > As the author and maintainer of gparted i'm very open to usability > advice, so maybe we can pick up this discussion again? > > If needed i can subsribe to the list. I'd appreciate if you could do that although it is not essential. There is the option to subscribe and then turn of delivery of messages if you like but in the meantime I have preapproved your email address so your posts will not be blocked in the moderation queue (but lists users will need to CC you). > grtz, > > plors Sincerely Alan Horkan http://advogato.org/person/AlanHorkan/ _______________________________________________ Usability mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/usability
