11) Open Source
12) Not written in Visual Basic. :)
I may add support for my LED controller if I ever get time. That's the beauty of open source, other people can add features and take inspiration from yours.

Yep, that's the reason I've been thinking about making an SDL FE.
Actually, I'd like an FE that uses Stepmania's wheel menu.

Anyone knows any other sources for game Movies, besides the bittorrent option? For some reason I have not been able to configure correctly my firewall to allow the torrents, so everytime I try to download something it appears as a dead connection, I already tried Emule, but had no luck :-\

Make your own.

I have changed my nickname to "Cakemeister". Please do not PM the Buddabing account because I do not check it anymore.

Please read the wiki!

VB pays my bills quite nicely. ;)

I'll put out a release sometime soon that fixes some of the more glaring bugs, and I'll add a few new features such as sub-menu support, and moving images(ex: AtomicFE), as well as a redesigned setup and skinning application.

Wow! This is something I've wanted to hear for a long time now! The sub-menu idea is what is missing from all good next-gen frontends so far. And if you also could make the skinner application work with pixel input, so that it would be easier to place graphics, that would be great! I hope you'll release a version very soon...

AtomicFE already does that...
