I'm anybody! Testing with SyncTERM
Login thoughts:
The animation shows up really well. However, the font for your title is a
little hard to read (looks like 'forge'). This may be just personal taste,
though...Not sure if this is a bug, or intended, but pressing any of F1-F5
will pause/unpause the animation.
Other thoughts:
The mailcheck is a little buggy...choosing Y on the more prompt will show you
six blank pages before saying 'Found X new email(s), read now?'
The transition from file/message menu back to main is nice. I think that
should be applied to *all* menu transitions. :)
I also really like the screensaver. Having your title stay above the
animation looks great. However, 30 seconds feels like too short of a delay.
I'd feel a little more comfortable with 60 seconds. F1-F5 pauses this
animation, too.
Overall, I really like the look you're going for! Keep up the good work!
