PharoLauncher as the default Pharo download
᧠That is a good question. I have to admit that I do use iTunes, and I have often been annoyed by not being able to - easily - find the files. I can certainly see the value of presenting end users with simple interfaces, but I am with Johan, I would like to be able to put my images somewhere more obvious - to a developer - particularly because this would make Dropbox/google drive synching easier. Obviously, we can do all of this, but it has never been quite as obvious as I would like it to be. Cheers Andy
Just of curiosity, do you use iTunes, or organise music in directories by yourself? :)

Sure. As I said before, I am old-school and double click on my images.
So for me they are just documents, like any other, and I use the finder extensively for all my document manipulation stuff. I don't want to open a special tool to do the stuff I can do already in the finder. Also having megas and megas of images (which are just documents) in a "hidden, black magic" folder just makes my hairs stand on end, so I needed to communicate all those feelings.

Yes, but this depends if you want to show image, changes, etc? file to
users or not. For me it?s ok as far as I have enough tools to manipulate images

Also, I think it is very wrong to keep the images in the Library
folder by default. The Library is "hidden" and a "black magic - do not touch" area for the common user. A sensible default is the Documents folder.
