One thing I don't "get" (having skimmed) is the banal critique. We are many, and therein lies the potential for greatness...
So there's a lot of noise about the interface being unattractive, but without any indication of what it "should" look like.
I don't know how easy it is for plugin interfaces to be re-skinned, but wouldn't this be an excellent opportunity for the community (y'all) to deliver useful requirements (a description, ie "if you can put them sliders like that", or even better a proof of design, ie an illustration).
I'm just reading, trying to learn, and collecting like a OCD blackbird! My goals are many, my knowledge, hardware, and experience are few and far between, but there is hope, and that sounds good enough to me.
To honed applications
