1. icon selection is rather weak, either allowing
custom icons and/or preferably just adding more icons.
i'd strongly recommend the kind folks over at
http://icons.deviantart.com i've asked a number of
people to use their icons for my phpBBs and almost all
of them were more than happy to let me use them, just
as long as they get a note somewhere in the about
section or whatever...

2. 16x16 is a bit small and hard to recognize, 32x32
would be more realistic for improving visibility and
increasing accessibility, or the option to do both?
icon size changes are rather trivial these days with c++ :)

i can help with #1 if it's seen as a cumbersome job. as
stated, i've gotten a number of people to let me use
their icons... and if i send them the link to a nice OS
password reminder project, they'd probably be more than
happy to participate :)

    The next version will have nicer icons. You can have a look
    at them here:
    https://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=1342080&forum_id=329220
    (the thread is about a different feature, but the version
    offered there includes the new icons, too).

    But I decided to keep them 16x16 icons. 16x16 is the
    standard icon size in a 'details' listview. If the icons
    would be any bigger, you wouldn't have such a nice list any
    more; the spaces between the different entries would be too
    big, making the list look ugly. And I do not want to
    increase the font size.

    Thanks and best regards
    Dominik

    wow hey thanks, you rock Dominik! the program just keeps
    getting better and better... and soon KeePass will take over
    the world thanks to me forcing people to use it, which after
    2 days of usage they realize just how their lives have
    changed by using it, and how they don't all need to use the
    SAME password on every site they visit *sigh*

    ;)
