Bamm, you are wrong. What you have wrote is a lie... you are improvisating. And i have to tell you this, because you seem to be totaly ignorant on about this topic. I will give you the perfect example, Photoshop: Photoshop is in the top has its prestige not for be an easy to use application, for have a shortcut where the most of the end users need, or for its features. The Photoshop User Interface is catalogated like one of the most careful designs made for an aplication. And this is not because it has a shortcut where the most end user need. It hasnt. PHOTOSHOP'S UI USE A "'COHERENT LANGUAGE'" FOR THE COMUNICATION WITH THE USER. THIS IS WHAT MAKES TO PHOTOSHOP A GRAPHIC DESIGN APLICATION AND NOT ANOTHER KID TOY FOR DRAW AND PAINT IN A COMPUTER. That is in deep what a user interface is: The language used for the comunication between the aplication and the user. You philosophy, "a shortcut where most of the end users need", ends when the application has turned into a thing totally unreadable for who doesnt know the application and is just starting to use it. If you want a HOME button besides of navigations buttons into the Navigation Toolbar, may be you are in the wrong place. The user interface of Mocosof Internet Explorer has a language which allow you to have a HOME button besides the STOP, BACK, REFRESH... etc. buttons. So i recomend you to use Internet Explorer and leave Mozilla. /.lancer
