A suggestion for the interface

Firstly, I am most impressed by SABNZBD - and I don't really mind the Firefox way of working with this. Thank you developers fr the wonderful soft.

But I'd comment that the play button next to an individual download works opposite to most implementations. When the play triangle is shown, normally this means "press to play" and the 2 vertical lines meaning pause - when those are shown, normally that means "press to pause". With SABNZBD, the icons seem to mean Playing and Paused.

Secondly, the pause all button doesn't change, except in colour - difficult for colour-blind people like myself to distinguish. I'd suggest the words Start All and Stop All instead.

My 2c.

thanks

edit: I attached a mockup

Hi. You've done a superb job - I do love most of it. The point about "press to pause"  didn't mean the words should be used, just what the icon means. In any event, I'm a designer - and love to help if you want it.
