From a user interface and Prominator users' perspective the first thing that jumps out at me is the form is needlessly wide. Too see the entire window currently you need 823 pix display. On some of these laptops 1024x768 is a luxury. A laptop running a resolution of 800x600, which is fairly common, will not even able to see the full window.

How about a splash screen that appears first. The Speedtronics logo all proud by iteself. Just like on the webpage header. After a moment fire the prompt screen, once the 'ok' is clicked, kill the splash and open the main form.

Great prompt screen. Very useful addition.

As for the main form, remove the logo, its our splash screen now. Move "Verify" text back beneath "Program" text, and return main window back its original size.

ahh, . . but of course you've got more important things to work on . . . now, back to the Speedreader

Thanks for the feedback. It's pretty easy to rearrange stuff.

Ok I did up a "new" version (1.2A) that should be a little more "low resolution friendly".

FYI if you are upgrading from a previous version, you don't need to go through the entire install process...just using the "new" .exe file is fine...and of course update shortcuts...etc.

Again, thanks for the feedback.
