No, I just want to show you that ARGENA has been annonced. If you have any questions about it, I can answer. But non, this is not spam :-)

Not spam? Heh, okay.

I've never seen this app before and just looked briefly at the image you posted and the flash animation on the front page. Is Argena a port from a Windows app? The UI looks pretty hideous especially in the tabs and toolbar areas. That UI just chews up and spits out all of Apple's UI Guidelines, something that practically every good Mac OS X app follows. I know it may sound nit-picky, but a clean and well-organized interface is something that is extremely important to Mac users, far more so than it is to the average Windows user.

I dunno. I guess it doesn't really matter to me since I don't have a use for it.

Sure, it is not 100% MacOS X and no, ARGENA is not coming from Windows :-).

But we continue to work on MacOS X interface to follow Apple Guidlines.

The toolbar that you don't like is very usefull because you can create some graphics effects, frames, QTVR movies... directly from it. Next release will be much more MacOS X native, be sure ;-).

You must see that ARGENA mixe a lot of different kind of technologies coming from different worlds. That can explain this.

Nah, I think its ok.. It does look a little bit convoluted, but overall, it looks ok.

As for the interface, bah.. I like nice looking apps, but then I also live and die by many apps that do not follow those guidelines either..

Question, is there any code editing capabilities in it?

It all comes down to how well the app works, and what it does.

Thanks for the links, I always like checking out web dev apps.

Sure, to do this, you can add plugin. A plugin is an object that you drop into your page. This plugin is made into ARGENA and take care of the current website language. Into this plugin you can put your html, javascript... code. For example we provide some plugins like shopping kart plugin, or client registration static plugin. And we can help you if you have some difficulties to do one.

First pop-ups, now....

Funny :-) But I thought that enclosed files were forbidden ;-)

Yes ARGENA UI = Bad...

PS: Leave the guy alone for posting this, if you don`t like it go to another thread. He is a new user and cant get to the posting guidlines right now to find out if it is okay to post press releases or not..
