I've decided to start this topic in light of my decision to stop the development of SL 1.x.x. The whole codebase of SL 1 has been trashed. Reason behind this decision is that the SL 1 source is a mess and GUI and program logic are not separated. Most of the core functionality resides in event handlers. That is a big no-no and means that if I make changes to the GUI I break the program logic (meaning everything stops working and I have to fix the program logic).

I will continue with SharpLeech 2 and basically start from scratch again. This might sound a bit radical but it is actually a great opportunity. Having to redesign the whole program means I can put futures in there that wouldn't of been (easily) possible with SL 1. It'll use .NET 4 and WinFX for the GUI, which is better known as WPF.

The reason for this topic is to collect ideas and suggestions. Getting those now means I won't have to make radical changes near the end, saving me quit a bit of time. Apart from that I'll use this topic to post SL2 development news etc since I CBA with creating a new website for this one program.

Here's some very early work on the GUI, comparing some parts of it with SL 1:

Hey Hyperz,

I would suggest you to add as little features as possible.

-Remove Radio
-Keep the application size (I mean the window size) as little

This will prevent it from using much of the PC's resources.

Thanks for the suggestions. SL is fairly light on system resources though. And it ain't targeted towards Pentium 1 users lol.
Btw: the main SL2 topic can be found @ http://www.wjunction...ead.php?t=24476 - there's more "news" posted there.

Keep the Radio & IRC features, it's what makes Sharpleech so unique.

[Hyperz]

They will stay.

Maybe adding an option to also leech every reply for every single topic?

Hi Hyperz! Can you make this compatible with mybb?
Just say me a price in pm, if you interested.
