Instead of getting this "http://feeds.feedburner.com/treehuggersite" You get this "feed://feeds.feedburner.com/treehuggersite" Which wont pass as a legitimate link in snackr You need to change "feed" to "http", and then it works.

Oct 08, 2009 issue 271 (snackr should be customizable in shape and position) reported by joostvanbarneveld - just like other programs, i'd like to place snackr wherever i want in whatever size i desire. See screenshot. For this paricular setup, it would need to scroll vertically, but when we're requesting features let's go all the way ;) For the rest, it's a really nice implementation of the idea of RSS ! just like other programs, i'd like to place snackr wherever i want in whatever size i desire.

I expect that this behaviour should be user-configurable (i.e. choose whether to collapse to top or bottom of screen). If not user-configurable, it seems counter-intuitive to collapse the controls to the opposite edge of the screen from where they are positioned during application use. The collapse/uncollapse cycle requires moving cursor from top to bottom of the screen, rather than simply clicking the same location (to reverse an accidental collapse, for example).

When there are many feeds to go through I set the scroll speed fast, and this would keep the mouse from trying to keep the pace.

RAM usage isn't bad, but it hovers at 55,000K. Every 8 to 9 seconds CPU usage drops to 10% before hiking back up. I love this program but it's impossible to run anything else.

I have tried altering the speed to minimum, under the impression that perhaps the images were failing to load quick enough, however, this has made no difference. I have also demonstrated a constant internet connection by streaming live media while this issue occurs. Your reply makes it sound as though the images are loaded in real time. I can't help but feel that is possibly the problem. Perhaps a solution would be to preload and store in memory the image associated with each feed (as these will be the same for all articles on any given feed, from my understanding), so that it doesn't need to load them in real time.
