Love the update!
Love the ability to get more than the previous default 20 tweets, can now get up to two hundred...
Love the fact I can now see my user history...
Love the full screen mode...
Only points I note:
- When viewing the timeline after a while, and scrolling, it sometimes struggles to redraw itself fast enough, so the initial scrolling action comes across jumpy....after that then scrolls and looks good.
- Would still like to see some user avatars
Overall, that it a huge improvement, and I hope you continue as it is very much appreciated.
Cheers

Just one thought - and I know it's trivial! I've seen people on twitter moaning that they don't like the electric blue. Perhaps when you've done the important things, a couple of theme/colour options would be a pretty addition. Yeah, I know it's cosmetic, but I see people saying it.
I think you're approaching the point of knocking the 'port gravity' cry on the head once and for all. Personally I prefer the idea of something that's a Maemo app from its toes up.

However before I upload a new verison I also wanted to hook into the volume rocker events to allow the text font size to be changed.
Anyone got any idea how I do that? they don't seem to register as on_key_press events

ok so i still haven't figured out how to gwt zoom events. however i have uploaded 0.2.2-2 with basic support for changing the background colour gradient. with 2 buttons in the menu. each launch a colour picker. you have to get the colour you want in the pallet and which ever is selected when you hit ok is picked.
it sometimes takes a scroll to force a redraw event.
your colours are saved in /home/user/.witter
also font size is stored there and can be changed by hand.

A question, do I download this from testing or devel?
The version in Testing reports itself (prior to install) as 0.2.1-8. But the version in devel reports the same.
But I like the sound of 0.2.2-2.
I'm looking forward to testing this application. What I've seen and read sounds very good.

oops...somehow managed to get the ui file out of step wiith the code...this is what i get for coding until late then throwing it into autobuilder and going to bed before testing it.
0.2.2-3 is on it's way through and hopefully resolves the issue.
this also answers the question for kjmackey...you*should*seethe0.2.2 stream when you have extras-devel enabled. clearly ohers do see it. however, it is the devel repo and sometimes i screw up. so if you don't want to suddenly find thinga broken for a bit, stay with extras-testing. once i've had enough good feedbacck that things are ok i'll promote ro extras-testing

I'm still working out what all the buttons are for, but it's dead nifty. And it found and collected my regular search without needing refreshing. (#n900 as you might have guessed!)
