Hi i always like the some principle coming back everywhere on the page.
Upwards the options menu for example has a ligt to dark look on the menu and buttons.
The queue thing has diagonal stipes as background i think it looks better if you leave away the strips, so the layout is the same everywhere.
I think the diagonal stripes match the forum well. Can eventually be changed in a final stage though.

Wow that looks incredible!! I would love that as a default scheme.
I think I like shutdown being in the options menu (rather than the upper right icon) -- what I can do is make it so when you hover the options, then it shows the menu without having to click first.
+NZB I can set to use the same menu, though it may need to be larger. I am thinking have three lines for add by ID/URL/upload.
Good news all -- Plush is now fully IE7 compatible! (in test builds) This is in addition to Firefox/Safari/Opera. Thanks to deam for help on that one; and to switch too for making a necessary change in the SABnzbd base code.
Alright, I am going to need to consider this concept further.... here are some things I think ought to be considered at this point:
- Queue Verbosity
OK
- History Purge/Verbosity Toggle (+)?
OK
- History Verbosity with ~60 icons and a reported message (only reports messages on error)
you need this to determine the lenght of the interface?
- History icon for a detected "failed post-processing" plus response text
how do I simulate this in my Sabnzbd? since I don't have any failed at the moment
- Purge for the Queue
to flush the entire queue?
- "Jump to top of list" for each enqueued NZB
OK
Thank you very much injectx for the continued efforts!
you're welcome , just hope you can get it to work eventually

This design looks fantastic. Well done!
One small point, using "60,5GB" to denote 60.5GB is only used in continental Europe. In the UK and U.S., we use "60.5GB"

Hi, following this post with great interest - so great i have registered for the forum
I like the idea of being able to toggle (show/hide) the History display
- should not be to difficult when using jQuery
Furthermore i noticed in the current Plush theme that the font-size is hard-coded at a certain amount of pixels - this makes it impossible to shrink the page to fit my browser window - it might be a good idea to work with a 'small' default font-size in the body of CSS and use em's to indicate the size of all other elements.
Grtz and keep up this good work

Also made a concept options menu.

Ever notice that the favicon looks like "sab" with a yellow hat sitting atop? Maybe if you wanted to brand your theme in a way, you could use a golden pimp hat

like the idea! but for now I first want to look at it and test it as it is.. maybe the screen (and logo) will get too busy but it could work out good.

Made adjustments in the list height, font size can always be set smaller if necessary.
Few more things:
The edge on the bottom isn't as round as the edge above.
That's because I didn't use a vector image for the background and it would be a hell of a job to create a new rectangle.. so hope you don't mind.
The overall color/gradient may be a little sloppy in some parts of the image, photoshop is not performing well anymore because of the large
PSD file. I'm creating an improved PSD, only with highly necessary layers in it (should work a lot faster).
The flush entire queue option could be set in the options menu, as it is a function that should not be used very much. Also question/warning window could pop up to make sure you don't push it by accident.
Also sorry pair, for not doing as told with the ~60 icons long list. I hope you can get a bit of information from the picture I made.
My laptop is suffering of some mayor lags when it comes to big images
And again thanks for your comments! keeps me going

why not just a green ok "V" sign and behind that the time of unraring + parring. Something like this: (see attachment)
this way it's minimal and you can direcly see if anything went wrong.

Looks very good!!! But I think it would be nice to have a scrollbar on the queue as well at least as an option. I think it could be done by not having drag and drop as the only method of sorting have 2 little arrows or triangls one pointing up and one poing down on each item in the queue that only show when you're hovering over the item.

One other thing for the Queue.... how about for every NZB, right underneath the "time left", the ETA is also shown, like so: (centered within its column)
00:30:00
02/28 7:30p
01:00:00
02/28 8:30p
00:30:00
02/28 9:00p
00:10:00
02/28 9:10p
Yep that would be great, only in this format please, the world is bigger then USA
00:30:00
02/28 11:30
01:00:00
02/28 13:30
00:30:00
02/28 14:00

I also like it more in 24-hour style.
Edit: why not remove the seconds if you want fewer numbers?

Fewer numbers that way... does that work for non-US? (ignorant American here)
Yeah now we are talking, if you want less numbers why dont leave the day/month away, most is done in dloaded the same day or when sleeping

Don't you think this a bit overkill? Well maybe we could switch to that option if dragging and dropping doesn't work out well.

In front of the name a checkmark or a cross is placed to inform about any errors. This is what you meant?
Well pair, I hope this is what you meant, if not, let me know
yawn! injectx signing out for today...
p.s. : good to know you figured out how long gradients can be used, should come in handy when implementing aqua or the black theme in a later stage.
other thing I saw today whas the IE7 compatability, really good work!

I agree with Injectx, this would be overkill. We have drag & drop working. All we have to do is say "SORTING IN PLUSH IS DRAG & DROP" and make the drag & drop system work as well as possible. You don't need any extra visual widgets apart from the grippie.
