Do you think you can fix that?

If the user feels they don't understand it they will instantly delete 3) rigid (user can't choose what they want it to do) There was one more too, but I can't remember it. Thus, a successful application must be 3 things 1) completely and perfectly bug-free 2) very simple and not flashy 3) flexible - trust the user to choose what features they want to use Oh yeah, and it has to do something useful :) Yo, I read an article about this very problem
