      <content:encoded><![CDATA[Jim, I certainly understand the desire to do some file management - however nGen File was not designed to be a file manager. We leave that functionality to products like "CKFinder":http://ckfinder.com/.

We do love to hear about suggestions or thoughts, so if you have any please feel free to send them to ngenfile [at] ngenworks.com.]]></content:encoded>

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[John, thanks for the kind words and using our software.

We are always looking to improve our software. However since it is free our development isn't always the fastest unless something is affecting our use of the product with clients.

Regarding the issues you're having I e-mailed you so we can see what might be going on and hopefully resolve it for the next upcoming release.

Thanks for the feedback!]]></content:encoded>

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[Fred,

First of all, much thanks for nGen file field.  It is far and away the best file management tool for EE I've yet found.  I understand it's tough to spend time on a product that you develop for free... which is why I initially came to your site -- to tell you to charge for it!  It's worth it!

Can you at least tell us if you're working on that memory issue when it creates the thumbnails?  I'd love to keep using this plugin and would be willing to pay for it, but I can't have that issue shutting down sites for my clients anymore.  At least have it respect the upload limits set in EE.  If you're not going to address it, just let us know so I can move on and alleviate you of all the support requests on the forum!

I know it's tough and I'm not trying to be a pain, you really have developed something great. I'm just wondering if this is a product I can continue to depend on or not.

Thanks again,
-John]]></content:encoded>

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[Jim, thanks for the comment and feedback. Currently support for our add-ons is primarily through the EE forums. 

You can also find our EE specific software and docs at <a href="http://www.ngenworks.com/software/ee/">http://www.ngenworks.com/software/ee/</a>. This page is linked to in our EE forum threads where we announced and support the add-ons. We are looking at different ways to improve support for our software though.

Thanks for using our software and providing feedback!]]></content:encoded>

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[I applaud your giving of free software to the community, and as someone who's just discovered Publish Tweeks (and possibly a bug in it) I'm a bit lost on where to go to feedback, or what's the latest version (0.8?) I'd even like to toss some coinage your way for a beer and a pat on the back, but there's nothing on this site that points to the files—at least that I can find. 

Quite of bit of free software seems abandoned, some of it is used by other sites to snag hits. If you want to go to the source, and it dead-ends…then what now?

Can I suggest a small subsection, off the blog, that points to your freeware, lets us know of the current release and gives a download and a feedback, and most importantly, a little button for a gift through something effortless like Paypal. 

I appreciate your stance - this should be standard disclaimer on all freeware, if only set expectations. But I'd like to feedback, contribute or aid, and you don't make it too easy. 
:)]]></content:encoded>
