Mockups Update Available Link
I would love to see a simple unobtrusive link to the most updated version of Mockups on the company website when version exists that is newer than the version I am working in. For instance, in the Desktop version there would be a link that appears on the top toolbar perhaps in between the full-screen button and the lock icon, but when clicked it would go to the balsamiq webpage for the desktop version and the user could click the AIR link on the page thereby updating the application. The NEXT version would do the same but be directed to the NEXT webpage for its update. You could even add an entry into the View Menu to enable\disable this feature.
I’m happy

Inappropriate?Hi Chris, how about a "Check for updates" entry in the Help menu, maybe coupled with an automatic check on startup once a month?
-
Inappropriate?That can work to, would that tell you if there was an update or just take you to the update page? -
Inappropriate?I haven't designed it yet, but I think it would check on my server and download a list of changes since your current version, if there are any.
Let me think about it a little bit...in the meantime, know that I update the build every Sunday, and that you can subscribe to an RSS of my release announcements here http://www.balsamiq.com/blog/?cat=14

Inappropriate?I was just about to post this idea myself...but I didn't think of actually creating a mockup! That was a stroke of genius, Chris!
I’m totally in love with this idea!
