Request Apps

Got a suggestion for an app that should be portable? Post it here.

Requesting: PortableGIMPshop

Yeah, I know there is already a PortableGIMP, but sometimes people are more familiarized with Photoshop. There is a portable photoshop, but obviously is an unauthorized hack, therefore illegal. Maybe you've heard of this GIMPShop, which is a mod from the original GIMP, and resembles Photoshop in names, menus [structure], and instead of multiple windows, there's a Deweirdifier, which makes it a Single Window environment, and well... IT'S AWESOM!!! The bad thing is that there's still no portable GIMPShop, so pleeeeeease, someone do the world a favor. [I would, if I knew how]

Newsgroups Download Manager capable of using .NZB file type.

As a member of newzbin.com i make great use of the .nzb filetype that they utilise.

I know there are many "newsgroup readers" out there but not many make use of nzb's

I personally use "grabit" but this might not be portable. Here's a list of nzb compatible appz. Any thoughts?

Portable winscp for remotely working on your (webserver(s))

Submitted by comedit on June 4, 2006 - 7:32pm

I have my own webserver running at home and I travel alot for my work. The company has secured the laptop I carry so much it is hard to get to your own server (as soon as I use portnumbers the VPN-firwall starts to protest.)

I sneak my way around this by carrying linux livecd's around (suse and kubuntu), but as many other users might confirm you do switch back and forth between linux and windows to get your work done.

Anyhow I found this java program Unitty which is a bit like winscp but not as good. Filezilla is ok for ftp but when you need to start putting in commandlines root access, no connection time outs etcetera, then winscp is a good solution.
