Am a member of some Linux forums and news letters. Today, received a reminder email from LinuxQuestions.org to vote for my favorite distro of the year. Well, Linux Lite is not on the list. In spite of that responded to the tread and manually voted for Linux Lite. It's my hope others will see the post and be curious enough to check it out.
For my needs Lite is perfect. Got to thinking, if enough people manually vote by posting for Lite maybe next year it will make the list. It's a very good opportunity to be heard.   Thanks, Jerry and all, you all are the bomb!

With the goal of continually improving our software, I've opened an account on Bountysource and will start offering bounties on features we want to add to our custom software.

How it works:

1) The Linux Lite team requests a feature to be added to existing LL software.
2) We then attach a bounty (a $dollar amount) to that feature request.
3) There are 3 ways you can fund new features to our existing software:

- you can send us a donation on our Bountysource page here - https://www.bountysource.com/teams/linuxlite
- send us a donation on our website here - https://www.linuxliteos.com/donate.html and a note saying the donation is for our Bountysource page, mention what feature you want added, and we will place the feature request ourselves providing it is something we agree on. I would recommend you contact us first before making a donation so you're not paying for something that won't end up in our software.
- my personal preference, send us a donation here - https://www.linuxliteos.com/donate.html and attach a note saying you want to boost an existing bounty eg. from $40 to $45 as an incentive to encourage development.

Funding for bounties requested by Linux Lite will be sourced from our donations. This is win win for everyone involved.

Our Bountysource page is here - https://www.bountysource.com/people/29895-linuxlite and is plugged into our Github page as convenience for developers.

We've posted our first Bounty which can be viewed here - https://www.bountysource.com/issues/7753...e-software

This announcement is just a quick overview, if you have any questions please let me know.

When I first tried LL, the glaring omission was there were no "spoiler tags" when posting.

They keep the forum pages tidy, at the moment theres only the code tags for putting lengthy replies in.

In my opinion, code tags that do not include code could be confusing to "newbies"

Just my opinion

Glad to say that scanning s works on my LL Install , top work Team . An HP Photosmart 5520

The Shortcut Pane provides shortcuts to different folders on your system.
You can add important folders to the  Thunar's Shortcut Pane with simply dragging and dropping a folder to the pane.
This is the wrong way of doing it. If you drop it on an existing shortcut you will acctually move the folder you have dragged to the folder the shortcut is pointing to.

I don't know why the XFCE developers made that possible.

This is the correct way of doing it. You have to move your mouse untill the horizontal line appears.

Once you add the shortcut you can right-click on it and remove it or rename it.
