    Ooh a new one, I'll have a look in a bit. Didn't expect it to be so WoW focused!


    About the buttons from the last thread:

I wanted to make them look like Vista taskbar buttons except with a green glow instead of orange, but I gave up because it would have taken at least a day.)
    Make a minion do it! Erm, I mean trusty colleague.
    TBH, I don't know a lot about how these open source things work, but I noticed some trusty colleagues were trying to volunteer in a previous thread..

    I'd like to find a solution that (1) is easily seen so people know the feature exists and (2) is easy to use.
    Is there is an opportunity to indicate this on the 'computers' tab/screen? You could put computer-specific settings next to each computer icon. [Edit: or click the icon to see them.] This setting might show as "Mouseover from this PC: allowed/disallowed". So when the button was on (green) then those PCs with the allowed setting would be good to go. When off, all mouseover is stopped. If only one PC, leave the button grey but don't show the computer-specific mouseover settings.

    If you liked that layout then you could extend the idea: show WoW-specific (later: program specific?) info on the WoW tab, toon-specific on the toon tab, and so on.

    Coming out of nowhere drivin' like rain, Stormbringer dance on the thunder again
    Dark cloud gathering breaking the day, no point running cause its coming your way

    Rainbow shaker on a stallion twister, bareback rider on the eye of the sky
    Stormbringer coming down meaning to stay, thunder and lightning heading your way

    Ride the rainbow crack the sky, Stormbringer coming time to die

    ~ Deep Purple, Stormbringer
