MediaQueue 3.0.0 released, EZ-Pics clone...

I have just released MediaQueue 3.0.0, I know a some of you use MediaQueue instead of EZ-Pics, so I thought you guys might like to know...

Anyway, for those that don't know, MediaQueue is an EZ-Pics clone (a bulk image downloader, designed for download image sets, read: PORN sets). The original program had many many "issues" and it was written in BASIC. A while ago I decided to write my own version in C++, and since then it has grown in options and functionality.

Get it from http://www.mediaqueue.com. Also don't just drag and drop files from the archive, use the extract feature of whatever archiving software you use, because MediaQueue needs to retain the directory structure that is in the archive)

This version is a milestone in my opinion
Code:
August 13, 2003 - Version 3.0.0
 + Added support for MQ-Codes. They own EZ-Codes, as they are much more 
   flexible and easier to create.
 + New download manager, no longer stalls download on errors, as it now
   prints out the errors to a text area, rather than doing message boxes,
   and it also has tabs. Tabs are super-neat.
 + Preview window has been implemented, can load pretty much any image format
   that you can find on the internet, it also shows you the current file,
   and that's good too.
 + Progress dialog now also shows the progress for the entire job, not just 
   the current set and file.
 + Error messages now make more sense.
 + You can now change a lot of the "internal" variables in MediaQueue by 
   editing the MediaQueue registry entries (stuff like text filtering 
   threshold, file locations, etc). These items were deemed to be too 
   confusing to put in the options box, but you can still edit them manually
   by going to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\FooSoft Productions\MediaQueue.
 + Added another easter egg, you can find it by pressing a certain key 
   combination at the main window...
 - The gallery templates are no longer stored in the registry. This was a 
   stupid idea in the first place. I mean who the fuck stores whole text 
   files in the registry? Oh wait...
 - Gallery templates are now editable in notepad. This is good, because 
   editing them in the small text box provided in 2.0.0 was a pain in the 
   ass, frankly.
 - Changed the code generator dialog, the old layout was too confusing, and 
   it was actually harder for some people to work with.
 - Changed about dialog, changed about text.
 * MediaQueue has been completely re-written from scratch. So many changes,
   like OMFG... Or something. Too much stuff to list here.
 * MediaQueue now works on a plugin system for code parsing. This means that
   in the future it can easily be adapted to work with any code scheme.
 * Fixed a lot of issues regarding threading in MediaQueue. Just take my word
   on that, its good. MediaQueue won't randomly crash during some downloads.
 * The EZ-Code parser has been re-written entirely, so hopefully it will
   be better now.
 ! The file size filtering is now fixed, in 2.0.0 the "filter greater than"
   and "filter less than" file size settings were reversed. I don't think 
   anyone noticed though :p
 ! The network options now work properly. The amount of retries was not
   correctly used by MediaQueue (wasn't used at all, actually).

And you finally got it... Image preview!


Also, the new, non-cluttered options dialog!


Enjoy. If you like the program, I urge you to donate, but otherwise MediaQueue is completely free

So try it, tell me what you think. If you run into bugs let me know, so that I can fix them for next version...

I'm glad an image preview was finally added. That's the main reason I use EZPics instead of this. MediaQueue just seemed a little better, but I hated that it had no image preview.
