Pondered on a possible improvement:

Welcome screen
Re: Welcome screen
I quite like this, it provides easy access to your most often played MUDs, and i happen to really like our logo, so placing it on the front screen like that appeals to me. Perhaps a checkbox beneath the list of most recently payed muds to open in 'emergency stop' mode, too? That way if you bork your profile, you can open it up without the scripts running to try and track it down.
Of course, I suppose you could go in under the normal route and select a previous profile as well, it could be you don't want to wipe out the code, just open without it being parsed so you can debug it, then turn script parsing back on.

Re: Welcome screen
Hm. I think the emergency thing is best for the connection dialog, this is meant to be a quick-access and simple thing, not a fully-featured replacement of the connection dialog.
Re: Welcome screen
Ok to "photshop" dummys, and if so, where should those be bounced?
UI thread perhaps?

I didn't quite catch you. You're welcome to post mockups here though.

Re: Welcome screen
I like it, very stylish. Don't suppose we can have an "open profile offline" type function for it as well? For when I don't want to actually play, just tinker with my scripts?
Sorry if it's already been suggested.

Re: Welcome screen
Not yet, but wouldn't be too hard to make that work.
Re: Welcome screen
I'd use it, a quick convenient access to your game if you don't have it connect automatically.
Re: Welcome screen
Looks pretty cool actually, and I like how it provides quick access. A 'work offline' function would be nice, since its present in most other clients.
Keep up the good work!
