Image and other thoughts

Post by Matt C. »

Now that I've become a paid-up user of this brilliant writer's tool, I feel I've earned the right to make a comment on the image of Atlantis.

I've now got a keen interest in the future of this software, and it seems to me that calling a word-processor "Atlantis" is bad marketing. The mental associations it suggests are all wrong, and it's going to be hard for people to find on the web. How about something comparatively boring but descriptive, like "eWriter"? And how about cleaning up the program icon, which is so cluttered and muddy that it doesn't look like anything at all? MS Word isn't as good as a writer's tool, but its icon is clean and distinctive. If Atlantis gets itself a sharper image, more people are going to buy it and the software will develop accordingly.

Those minor gripes aside, I think Atlantis is superb. I'm keen to see it evolve along the lines suggested in other posts in this forum, and one day I'd love to see it offer a slick outliner, but even now it's the best computer writing instrument I've come across. All the best!

Many new features will be added, and many things will be changed in the future. For example, the next minor version of Atlantis Ocean Mind will support footers/headers. It will also have a new splash screen and icons.

Thanks for your comments and suggestions. They are always welcome.

I am curious on the new splash and the icons. And hot for the headers and footers.
