| − | Also, just as with the emulators, this needs to be fleshed out more fully, such as the listing in the juke forum. An example is the emulators listings. Motch laid out a fistful of them so we could go back in and know what might be out there and flesh out those (or delete them if obsolete) later, rather than piecemeal them in one by one.

| − | Lastly, while I know these may be freeware and you guys may want to point out the presence of a donation link, in the software description does not seem to be the place to do so (to me anyway). Mention it in the overview/summary at the top. Mentioning it up there, and then including a link within the description of each looks far cleaner. Donations aren't a "feature" of the software, although I CLEARLY understand they're greatly appreciated.

| − | == Template/Standardization points ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Here is a small list of things I've noticed in looking through this small collection listed so far. More points obviously can/would be needed but here's a start on what I'm talking about.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * OS this runs on
| |
| − | * Freeware, shareware, or commercial (along with cost)
| |
| − | * Touchscreen compatible
| |
| − | * Media format(s) supported (mp3, Ogg, Ape, FLAC, etc)
| |
| − | * Skinnable (and are they preset, or end-user can create?)
| |
| − | * Additional requirements? (.NET Framework, specific version of WMP, any runtimes or .dll's, etc)
| |
| − | * Supported resolutions (or at least a range)
| |
| − | * Album-oriented, singles-oriented, or both
| |
| − | * Monitor orientations supported
| |
| − | * ?
| |
| − | | |
| − | Obviously I don't think I've covered everything, but setting this up and being consistent will clearly make this easier for folks to sift through the info based on their needs and may introduce them to something they never even thought of that they might like to have.
| |
| − | | |
| − | :Maybe a feature grid would help on the Jukebox/Emulation software pages? The header column could link to pages and have each jukebox/emulator their own page.

| |
| − | The grid is an AWESOME idea! I was thinking the same thing about the emulators pages, but I figured start small with something like this page and see what ideas were brought forth.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Perhaps to save space, have the features be listed as numbers and have a list of what the numbers correspond to below it? I've noticed looking at the second table, it extends beyond the screen. I'm certain there's a way to limit the width of the table, but how to fit everything in it then?
| |
| − | | |
| − | Thanks for the idea Felsir!

| − | maybe switch Horizontal and Vertical (but this form is a MUCH harder to swich. Maybe we could table like this, and use a standaized destripction to the software itself?
| |
| − | | |
| − | Meybe you are right, using numbers instead, but would it not to have to many numbers? The width is a high problem with the large font. Using a small verdana font would help a lots.

| − | Perhaps it's a solution that has too many items needed to implement it properly.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Something else I'm wondering is perhaps a bullet-point list standardized so info just has to be plugged in as an = X feature thing.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Ex:
| |
| − | | |
| − | * OS = DOS, 98
| |
| − | * Cost = Commercial software ($35)
| |
| − | * Resolution = 800x600 for best results
| |
| − | | |
| − | and so forth. Maybe a small template to include the bullets, features list, and = sign could all be standardized and adding a new software could call up a "fill in the blanks" type of template.
| |
| − | | |
| − | I don't even know if that type of template is possible, so I could be talking out of my ass :)

| − | This form is easy to edit and have a lots better destriptions (and the screenshots say very much, whay they does). What do you mean? Much better to the large table and get a lots more information about a jukebox software.

| |
| − | | |
| − | I limited the columns to items that I though would be the first selection criteria, a grid makes comparing the software so much easier. Some space eating items are replaced by icons. I do support the template for the form, but I suggest to give each software it's own page. This has two reasons: 1) it reduces the jukebox page size a lot making it more readable. 2) it allows to make detailed pages for each piece of software with specs and perhaps hint and tips. So the form template is a good thing, so each Jukebox page has at least the same items filled in, my suggestion is to make the jukebox (and emulators) page an general overview for quick comparison and easy access to the individual software pages.

| − | "Skinnable" covers a lot of ground, from simply changing a color or background image to being able to change the size and location (or even existence) of elements. Do we waant to break this out further by skinnability features (change font, change element size/location, change element look, change background, etc.) or perhaps just designate skinnability as "partial" (change only some things like background), "basic" (change the complete look but not change element sizes or locations), and "full" (change everything inclusing sizes and locations)?
