I had successfully used that method with Callisto and Europa, but it did not work with Ganymede. I guess it's just pot luck as to which of the methods will work. @Marvin42

Glad you were able to make it work with that method.

I guess it’s just pot luck as to which of the methods will work.

The good news: I found another workaround to make eclipsecolorer_0.8.0 work with eclipse 3.4 (ganymede): - install eclipsecolorer_0.7.2 as described above - shut down eclipse - extract the net.sf.colorer_0.8.0 directory from the zip file - copy the _contents_ of the new extracted net.sf.colorer_0.8.0 directory into the old %eclipse%/plugins/net.sf.colorer_0.7.2 directory - restart eclipse: voila The plugin will display the wrong version number, but it will work! Especially the "Windows->Preferences->Colorer Library Editor->File Types" page will work (which it did not in 0.7.2 on ganymede) This may be an impure, quick and very dirty approach - but hey: it works!

And the flame crackling sounds as you get closer to the Blazing Speed bonus are cute too. :D ah-ha! the explosions were not just of the match, but of the gems around the central gem as well!

According to my resultant scoregraph, it didn't -seem- to do anything exciting for me scorewise, however, as previously mentioned, it did make the entire board yellow (not the gems) and each match I made exploded with a burst of yellow.

Nice touch, hard to really see. A dislike - if you turn your sound off, you can't really see that time is about to run out as easily as you used to be able to. In the previous version, the corners of the screen would flash. In this version, only the outline of the time progress bar flashes. A bit hard to see.

Take Matt's medical/HIV example. I couldn't see it in the video, or in his presentation, but I assume that the search was "Do I have HIV?" and I assume the results went to that page that was full of technical jargon. It's also to do with site owners providing "plain english" pages as well as technical pages where necessary, and searchers needing to think of a few things like is this a product that everyone will know and will have a "common" name for? or is it a very specialised product that will have a technical name? Is it likely to be found only under a very specific/technical name? Are the sellers/manufacturers of this product likely to have it on their site under a common name? What on earth would the technical name be? How would I find out what the technical name is? It’s not just about simplifying keywords. Take Matt’s medical/HIV example.
