General Discussion

I must say the new menu is amazing and well worth the wait. One of my favorite things is I can easily change an app's icon now :D. Anyways my thought is we can now tell people how to change the icon (simply replace appicon.ico). But when I go to upgrade the app next time my custom app will get overwritten by the launcher :(. So my thought is to add a little line into the appinfo.ini probably under [Control]. Maybe CustomIcon=false. Then if you want a custom icon you can put it in the AppInfo folder named customicon.ico, and change the value to true.

Hi guys

Just wondering if PA is still developing InfraRecorder Portable? This is not a request for update as I know things get done when there done and its done in peoples free time and so on. Just simply asking if PA.com is still developing the app? I've just been looking at the base apps website and thought about replacing Nero 8 on my home as Nero seems to use a Lot of resources when running.

Instead of loading the sourceforge servers, using the bit torrent protocol would be a better bet for downloads like the Portable Apps suite, as it is massive in size compared to individual programs. It makes sense given the volume of downloads reported by the site.

Many Linux OS distributions have also adopted the same approach as it saves them a lot of server bandwidth.

I wanted to begin a discussion on the actual setup of themes in PortableApps.com Theme Format which is what we'll be using for 2.0 and up. I did a quick example theme that you can download to play with. Get it here:

Is there a way to add a shortcut to the PortableApps start page to a program that is not in portable format, but is on the USB Drive? I am using Dream Mail and it is on my USB drive, but it is a pain to have to "Explore" the drive to open my email program instead of being able to at least open it from PortableApps.

I noticed the new header. It looks cool. It also looks good on IE7. I don't think the previous header looked good in IE. (I could be wrong though.)

I hope this is the proper forum to post this in. Apologies in advance if not!

I've seen an app on a bootable DVD quite a while ago that lets you select from multiple ISOs on the dvd to boot from. I can't for the life of me remember what the DVD was though.

I'd like to be able to do the same thing. Put several .iso files on a bootable usb drive and have a little menu at boot time to pick which iso to boot from. Like a rescue cd, my windows install disc, etc etc..

If you haven't tried the current Platform 1.2 RC 3, please do so here:

As you can see, I added renaming and hiding to the 1.2 release because I had the time and wanted to get it out there. I'm going to polish it up and post it tomorrow.
