i used Kirstens after the Emerald thing happened, and used V2 after they fixed the sidebar so it didn't move the world when it slid out...i much prefer the sidebar..i like having everything in one window that i can tuck away when i'm done with it
now i'm using firestorm because they gave me back the sidebar after LL took it away...how ironic...heheh
the only problem i've found with firestorm is the chat bar is way too small, but at least it stays in one place
i do use the official viewer sometimes, and do have it set up so it's 'useable', but the chat notifications being in the top right, the weird way the chat works, and the lack of the sidebar keep me going back to firestorm
just wanted to put in a positive note for the sidebar...shrug...viewer choice is just that..choice...no reason for anyone to bash someone else because they use a different tool to do the same job...:smileyhappy:
