I think it's mature enough to share with the public. for a simple, easy-to-use mame frontend, see mamegl:

Not to get all picky on you, but you do realize that there is a MAME frontend already called Game Launcher, right?

That's an understatment.  It's the second oldest front-end period.  

Heck, my fe which is technically third gen, is almost two years old.

On a side note, I think you are targeting the wrong audience here.  Your fe is by far the most "windowsy" fe ever.  (Even beats out mame32).  We don't use that kind of stuff round these parts.  I think this app would be better recieved over on the mameworld forums.

It's funny you say that, because the second I saw that I was amazed that the FE looke more (if I may steal your word Howard) "windowsy" than Mame32, which honestly, I didn't think it was possible.

Don't get me wrong Mario64, I'm always impressed with anyone who can make ANY kind of program as coding/programming is way out of my realm of expertise, but I have to agree with Howard and say you probably won't get the greatest response from people here, seeing as for the most part, everyone here wants a frontend that will mask the fact that it is actualy a computer and using windows.

Thanks for the comments.. Yes, I knew Game Launcher, it's universal (not mame specific) and quite old - updated 14 May 2002. Still I'll consider a name change.
mameworld so many frontends, so many forums..
