It might be the case that this is a very long popup for some people, let me see how it looks.

No one is forcing you to open the pop-up if you have a long list. Or you can add a scroller there (like in windows menus) and show only top 5 games.

I think it is a good idea. I will do both suggestions.

Ok so for the popup list what info do you want aside from game number?

(Doesn't really say much with just the number)

Name of the sitter (or active player right now) after the game number. This way I can see do I need to go to that game and advice on the move or not. Do not want there to be a lot of info - that way people will not use sidebar at all.

Ok so restrict this to just ready turns and add which player it is. Let me see what I can do, almost there.

If anyone is using this on a Mac please let me know, it's not difficult to make this work but I need a tester.

Installed it.

Few comments.
- New tab works great. Thanks.
- Pop-up works.
- Pop-up needs remaining time as well, hard to navigate there without it. Maybe this format:
05:56:23 - Game 25454865 - oldtonboy

- Do not include nickname into the link - it looks bad with underlining and blue color
- When you hover pop-up game - background turns to deep-blue color and it is impossible to read the link anymore (can you override hover color of the background control?). I guess it is WinXP theme problem. Here is the screenshot:

It should be either light background color, same font color or dark background color, lighter font color.

I cannot tell you the exact color because I suck at graphics and my aesthetics perception is below zero :D.

FYI chip, Dako isn't the only one using this :) I agree with everything he's said so far, it's looking great and liking the updates you're doing.

As far as I know, it should work fine on OSX, but I'll try it out tomorrow for you.

PS: I echo jake's above comment, echoing Dako :P

Thanks very much! I have a list of extremely simple tests if you are willing I can PM you.
(Basically it is just testing that left clicking works everywhere).

Keep up the good work guys!

You won't see it in the sidebar. Right click on the statusbar where the clock is and you'll see another menu.

I have a problem at my Ubuntu at home - the new pop-up has the list all messed up but I cannot screenshot it (print screen is block when the right-click menu is active). So if you have a chance to run it on Ubuntu - I am sure you will notice it.

It is not reproducable at Windows. I can retype what I see if you want. Basically - there are no (or less) line breakers and sometimes the nickname is written twice in a row.

So what I see it this:

Game ### Dako ###time
Game### time### jakewilliams
jakewilliams ###time ###game

And each time I right-click the popup it rewrites the order of the line so i can get different view with each click.

For some reason I was stuck at version 1.2 and it has not been working correctly the last couple days. I just updated to version 1.6.1 using the links and it seems to be working fine.

Is there anything in work for Mozilla to come to the latest version?

Yes, they take ages to bring up the automatic update but addons go into a queue so still waiting.
