I know. That's what the "click here" button pops up.

Oh OK yeah then that's the one I'm talking about...; sorry about that.

But if I were to request a method I'd actually request an option for the user to choose which type of crash log get's displayed.... Is that doable or am I asking too much?

What do you mean? Those are all part of the same report, just different aspects of it.

I mean the option to choose between the old method and the new method.... Hopefully that makes more sense.... :)

Actually, I prefer the top one, just because it different then from that damned "Were sorry" Blah blah blah. That shit is too overused.

But of course, it is us that are getting the errors, so if we don't get something that works for us, Randy won't be getting the bug reports that he would with the other method.

Note that I'm not saying which one is the better one.. though I spoke my peace about my opinion.

Absolutely. And the most recent version you (Randy) posted looks good to me. :)

There are plenty more bugs than just crashes, so people wopuld still want to report them. The option to report bugs that cause a crash would still exist but we probably wouldn't need to post the crash report anymore (because Randy would already have it). We could, however, still talk about causes and symptoms.

The new one looks nice enough, but I'm wondering - how exactly will reports be submitted? I sure hope you won't rely on a working installation of outlook or something like that to send email reports... :)

I think that top banner has to be changed. Can't it be a graphic or something instead?

And what will happen for Linux users? ZDoom won’t crash here? ;-)

There is no official Linux build for the newer versions ATM as far as I know. So, for the moment, that's not an issue.
