I basically agree, though I have a UI concern -- having a button in the prefs dialog which leads you to a web page is a bit strange since, while the dialog box isn't modal, I bet most users don't realize that. Would the button pop up a new browser window? (In front of the dialog?) Or would it open a new tab in some window in the background? (I kind of hate the way apps open links in browsers, since you can never tell which window/tab/space[*] the page is going to end up in. I'd hate to see Chromium do that to itself.)
[*] on a Mac; "virtual desktop" on some other platforms. (For those who think changing themes should be online only, I disagree: you're not always online, e.g., on an airplane, yet you may want to switch themes -- e.g., maybe you need a "high-visibility" theme due to lighting conditions.) - Trung Avi Drissman wrote: > On Wed, Aug 12, 2009 at 9:41 AM, Meok <meok...@gmail.com > <mailto:meok...@gmail.com>> wrote: > I guess it shouldn't be > too hard then to pass that info onto the gallery page and keep > everything online. > > I think that would be a bad idea even if it weren't too hard.
