Smooth momentum scrolling in Live Mail's Calendar

Submitted by Chaztheman on February 8, 2010 to Aesthetics, Annoyance, Usability

When scrolling through the calendar with the mouse, it jumps to the day below which, and when it reaches the end of the screen it jumps and the screen shows the next month.

Scrolling should not scroll the selected day but instead scroll through all the days smoothly with momentum (like picasa, or iphone momentum scrolling) with no 'jumping' to the next page.

Stationery setup wizard is wizard97 style

Submitted by formula_86 on February 12, 2010 to Aesthetics, Legacy

In Windows Live Mail, when I go and select stationery when composing a message, and select create new, the resulting wizard is wizard97 style rather than Aero wizard style.

(At least it uses the Segoe UI font! :) )

Come on Microsoft, its not 1997 any more; update the wizard to be Aero Wizard style.

Make the next/previous month more obvious in Live Mail's Calendar

Submitted by Chaztheman on February 8, 2010 to Aesthetics, Annoyance, Usability

When viewing the calendar in month view, it is not clearly obvious where the month starts an finishes without reading the numbers. You should just be able to SEE all the days in the month.

Make the squares of each month alternating in shade (more subtle than my image!) Or outline the month.

When Flash is not installed, the Welcome to Messenger screen is somewhat broken

Submitted by nyp on February 28, 2010 to Bug

If you do not have Flash installed, the Welcome to Windows Live Messenger screen is broken and doesn't offer any additional content.

Don't display the message and offer some content for those who didn't installed Flash. While you're at there, switch to Silverlight? :P

Auto-save feature for Windows Live Movie Maker

Submitted by formula_86 on February 8, 2010 to Annoyance, Usability

Its annoying if you have been working on a large movie project in Windows Live Movie Maker, you have spent literally ages tweaking and customising the whole project to your liking, forgot to save your project, then it either randomly freezes up or displays (more...)

Add an auto-save feature like in the old Windows Movie Maker.
