Here are a couple examples of apps with Pros and Cons, for you to learn from.

  • IconPhile. Pros: Awesome interface, nice menus, animation without going over board, clean icons, easy to use, just enough options. Cons: Can really screw up a system. I don't recommend it at all. A nice app, but screws around with DLLs.

  • Metapad. Pros: Very stable, useful as a fast notepad replacement, not overloaded with features, alright interface, ESC to exit. Cons: Logs to registry.

  • RegCleaner. Pros: Only app of its kind, no changes to registry, logs to INI files, installer only extracts files, can fit on a disk, very clean interface. Cons: Right-click on registry key cuts off with large fonts, not as fast as PowerTools.

  • ICQ Color Picker: Just won Perfect App award.
