    Upon further thought, "Flowverview" would probably be a better way to spell it, or perhaps "FlOverview"?

  • Rune - 14 years ago

    I brainstormed and had the thought, "what does this do?". And my reply to myself was that indeed there is flow, as well as overview, because we're not just watching the content of one file at a time, but the files before and after the current file.

    Doesn't "Flowerview" sound catchy?

    Showcase !!!
    That's a good one. Why didn't i think of that myself ? Too late now, i already voted.
    It should be named showcase.

    I've proposed FlipIt! or something else with Flip like FlipView, FlipFile..

    I've submitted 'Showcase'...

    1. I went for Other -> SlideView . After all is a view of slides, slides which contains album covers, picture previews, movies previews etc.

    2. In my opinion, a name should (as much as possible) reflect what the actual option/characteristic is doing an be as intuitive as possible.

    3. For instance: tell a user to use Windows Media Player, Rhythmbox, Amarok: WMP-> is a media player, clear; Rhythmbox-> rhythm + box -> music -> so it's a player; Amarok -> Amawhat? do you see my point?

    4. Going for the spirit of Ubuntu (Linux for human beings) and that it should be easy to use is the reason for 2. and 3.

    I put "other" and went with "dex". I was thinking of it as short for "rolodex"... not quite the same animation, but you know what I mean.

    I'm quite surprised that Carousel is in the lead. I guess I'm not the only one who dislikes CamelCase names.
