• Fixed the iBook display problem--the program is now smaller sized for the smaller screens.
• Fixed the "surprise" spelling error
• Took out the default of the front window so hitting "return" won't automatically send the letter.

Happy Holidays!

eSanta ReviewGreat concept needs a few tweaks - Version: 1.2, 12/7/2003 10:18PM PST

First of all, thanks for making eSanta. It has added one more year to the magic time during which my kids still believe in Santa Claus. I have just a couple recommendations, though. First, Santa definitely needs to remember to run his spell-checker before sending his letter next year. My third grader only needed one read of her letter to pick out "suprise." Second, I was disappointed not to be able to use the program on my wife's original iBook, which has a maximum screen resolution of 800x600; the "submit" button is hidden below the edge of a screen on such a small display, and in Mac OS X there is no way to move a window's title bar above the top edge, as is possible in classic Mac OS. Finally, it would be nice if, after clicking "Send email to Santa," there was a confirmation dialog box offering the option to cancel--I stupidly hit Return instead of Tab before finishing my 5-year old's letter, and had to use some diversionary tactics while I waited until the 'contacting Santa' routine completed before I could return to her letter to finish. All in all, a really wonderful piece of software.

eSanta ReviewSanta needs help with English. - Version: 1.2, 10/27/2003 04:18PM PST

A very sweet app. Thanks for the work. Unfortunately, Santa needs a gift of grammar and spell checking software. Santa, try using, "thank you for taking the time to write the elves and *me*," instead of, "thank you for taking the time to write the elves and I." Also, "suprise" is correctly spelled "surprise."
