@John:

(I'm posting a topic here instead of e-mailing you since you have 300+ messages to wade through. :P)

Could you make a few project pages for me? Here's what I need:

• Portable Notepad2
• Instant FileZilla
• Portable Nightingale (my portable Songbird)
• Portable Development Suite (integrated IDE, if you have a better name please tell me!)

That's all I need at the moment; I'll let you know when I need more.

Hello All!

I LOVE UPX, but it can also take a lot of time for me to write backups and make my compressions, which is why I have written UPX Assistant (v1.01)! Now all my backups can be written automatically and mass compressions completed on the fly. In the interests of the community I would also like the share the application, maybe it can help you too, maybe not. Basically, you can drag multiple files into the application or shortcut, and there are some other features I'll write below the download link.

Overview...

A portable version of the audio editor Audacity has been released over at PortaSoft!
More info on the project page.

P.S.- I know that a portable version supposedly exists, but it is in French by default and I wanted to create my own.

This is the begining of a portable media player based around winamp in response to the need for some suggestions topic began by Mark.
https://portableapps.com/node/1340. If there are any plugins or skins that you think would work better or are missing please comment.

Features:
Interface similar to WMP9,
Portable player support
Mp3, Ogg, Itunes and WMA support as well as FLAC.
Some video formats are supported, right now there is dvd playback throught the mplayer plugin but it is quite shaky

Update: Eliminated Video Flashing during DVD Playback, however only can play 1436 of dvd.

Creating a legitimate, portable Adobe Photoshop & ImageReady CS2 is entirely possible! Creating a working NSIS-based launcher is still in development, however, these are the exact steps I have taken to reach the nearest point. To write these steps most accurately, I am starting with neither Adobe Photoshop/ImageReady CS2 or its activation license on the machine...

After toying with it for quite some time, I've finally come up with a version of Portable Notepad2 I consider worthy of public release -- PortableNotepad2 0.4.

Portable Notepad2 lets you use the Notepad2 text editor on the go, without leaving mess behind on the current computer. Get it at the Notepad2 project page.

UPDATE: Now comes in two flavors: EXE and ZIP downloads. Waiting on SF.net hosting...

I'm experimenting with a quick version of a list of available blogs along with the current blog roll. Please take a peek here:
https://portableapps.com/development/blogs

This isn't the final layout or URL, but I wanted some comments from the devs.

I've just implemented the first of the developer features and am looking to have a few folks beta test to see how things are working out. So far, I have implemented:

- Developer Blogs (portableapps.com/blogs/username)
- Developer Test Projects (within portableapps.com/development/projects - not up yet)
- Developer Chat

I already have 3 beta testers. I could use a few more to start trying these things out.

Oh, and everybody is welcome to try out the new chatbox. It's in development/chat.

Hey

What would you guys think of the possibility to change the splashscreen?
So you can't only change the theme or the language of your favorite browser,
but also the splashscreen. And maybe there could come a section with the best
splashscreens, maybe a competition.

sorry for my bad English.
