    it would be cool if you could host it on some nice webpage, instead of those share-pages, which aren't that trustable as source.

    i know it's your work, but it would make it look more trustable.

    if you might want it to get hosted on davepermen.net with some nice html page explaining it, you might contact me. just as an option.

    and yes, i'm an anti-win7, and i would still support you :) (and i don't make any money by sharing bandwidth or hosting or what ever, just in case someone might ask).


    what should i say about the tweaks..
    i like the first one quite much
    the second one is mostly useless to me, but still interesting.
    the last one would be bad for me, as i use that folderband quite often. it would be cool to be able to show/hide it with a button, though :)

    Wait a minute. You are someone I know off these boards...Did you make another one?

    Anyway, the blue progress bar seems quite interesting: I may actually trial that.

    What version of Windows 7 are you running this on?

    #2 seems quite good too, although it looks a bit cluttered. Maybe if many of the apps that are the same or are in the same group could be put into folders? That would look a lot less cluttered.

    However, the folder band one may actually be a nuisance. I mean, there may be a time when I actually have to use it.

    Actually i have been thinking of setting up my own little simple forum along with permanent server space for files.That way when i publish something or any existing tweaks get updates i wont have to create these forumposts but instead give link to my forum.
    Yes.Since the other plagiat thread was closed and i still wanted to offer this to people i created an whole new thread
    Daily - Windows 7 Ultimate x64 but i have also tested Starter and Professional x86

    Nice finding, OP. Thanks for sharing.
