As a colour-blind person, I find it extremely difficult to see the "new messages" colorized menu bar icon (red I think?). Can we have an option to use a different colour, or perhaps just reverse video the current icon? The later option is probably a good double-win as it can fit into the category of keeping the B&W look of the menu-bar intact. Thanks!

This should be merged with the "colorless (Leopard-style) menu-bar item" topic posted earlier by Chris White.

A comment on the problem "Status Bar Icon Option Broken" in Nambu:

Got it again. Occurs when you choose "Hide Dock Icon". Restart on space 1. Click on the menu bar icon to hide. Move to space 2, click on menu bar item to show. You will be transported to space 1. In my case anyhow. – John Grater, on September 18, 2009 03:01

A comment on the problem "Status Bar Icon Option Broken" in Nambu:

As you couldn't reproduce, I deleted the plist file, restarted and the problem went away. Should have tried that before - sorry. Thanks for following up. – John Grater, on September 18, 2009 02:44

Great work - this is indeed fixed. Only minor issue now is in combination with spaces. When clicking the menu bar item Nambu will always return you to the space it was opened on (even if it was subsequently closed there). This happens even if I mark Nambu to use "Every space" and when I don't have the "switch to a space..." option ticked in Expose.

Add Automatic Tweet Translation

Rather than offer an option to Translate each tweet, why not automatically translate them into the language you have your Mac set to?

I think this functionality should be built into getsatisfaction, so that people can vote on topics & problems, giving a natural ordered list for the developers.

Cannot Delete Phantom Account

When I upgraded to 1.9.0.6b_194 I deleted the plist and Application Support directories. On starting, when I went to add an account, there was a blank square in the top leftmost position with no details. I could successfully add a new account underneath that. But any attempt to delete that first account got stuck in a loop on the confirm delete dialog, where, whether you press cancel or delete, the dialog pops back again. Only solution was to quit the app.
