        • Holiday / Event Skins! Easily customizable! MORE skins!

          I've been using the same skin since I've opened the gaming center. It was nice at first, but over time it gets dull. Give us choices!

          * Themed Skins (Halo / Counter-Strike / WoW / EQ2)
          * Flashy Skins (random skins that are not theme related, but look good)
          * Easily customizable!

          • Application Aliases

            If I have a new game, I like to highlight in a separate top-level catagory called "NEW". I would also like to list it under it's appropriate Games subcategory (strategey, action, etc), but I do not want to create a second entry as that would make the Application Statistics more confusing and innacurate.
            I would like to be able to show the same application in multiple locations in the menu, without having to create multiple entries.

            • Built-in World of Warcraft Add-On Manager/Updater

              As the title suggests,
              Many struggle with updating and distributing add-ons for World of Warcraft. Everyone seems to want their own! That said, we want customers to be happy by having their add-ons, but not compromising security or making it difficult for a staff member to help every time someone wants an add-on, or needs to update them!

              • General Notes Section for Employees

                On the main screen, have an icon for notes, and have a popup bubble whenever a new one for the day is posted (optional).

                EXAMPLE:

                Dylan: The username "Zurai" may have stole a game! Keep an eye on him

                Ryan: Zurai came in when you were not here Dylan, and he does look very sketchy when he's around loose game CDs

                Josh: Thanks for posting the notes guys -- I would have never expected him to steal. Thanks to the notes, I kept an eye on him and CAUGHT him stealing!

                Dylan: Good job, Josh! It's all thanks to SL… more

                • FIX SL 4.1

                  -Barcode Scanner actually input a product not have the barcode too long? so it wont input. then if a barcode is in, have it bring up a totally diff product when that item is scanned. Read all threads on barcodes, everyone has the same prob.
                  -SL Direct, great idea, never worked.
                  -Updated key distribution list
                  -I can appreciated adding new things to SL, how about fixing the things that are already there. Hence the Free Upgrade to SLv5.x
                  -etc

                  • Multiple Time balances

                    Have the ability to have multiple time balances for each user account.

                    For example, if an establishment offers the use of a conference room for x minutes at $y/minute and also offers regular "LAN Time" at $z/minute it would be helpful to have multiple time balances such as:

                    Username: R4D10Active
                    |-------->LAN Time
                    |-------->Pool Table Time
                    |-------->Laser Tag Time
                    |-------->Conference Time

                    all linked to the same barcode or fingerprint. This would help to simplify the database as we now have the following structure
                    Username R4D10Active (LAN)
                    Username R4D10Active (gun)
                    Username: ..... etc

                    so having multiple accounts for the same person really… more

                      • Ability to Offer free time automatically with a Game

                        Being part of iGames, it would be nice to have an option to allow a free hour for a showcase game automatically when a customer clicks on the featured game. The hour would only be available when that game was selected.

                        • Language change

                          Give the user an option in the task bar (or somewhere) to change the language of the client.

                          Added ability would be having a exe or batch file be run per language (e.g. dutch.bat, english.bat etc...) so we can change registry entries for games and applications. This way they start in the user preferred language if possible.

                          • Add an option to auto-end all customer sessions once a day

                            It's a hassle to try and figure out if a customer is leaving for the day or just stepping outside or going to grab a burger, and then deciding if we should end their session.
                            I'd like if the server could automaticly end all open sessions and re-open the account (if they have a balance) every day at a specified time.

                            • User Prefered time slot Req. for Play and Pay from Client PC

                              It will be very helpful, if user/customer will able to decided how long he prefers to be Online on client PC and able to ask time extension as per his need from Client PC itself without leaving.
                              There should be some option available on client interface to increase time slots by customer.
                              i.e. 30 mins / 1 hour / 2 hours (configured in Administrator/Server)

                                • Usergroups options

                                  Based on a problem I reported here:-
                                  http://bugs.smartlaunch.net/view.php?id=1147

                                  a Usegroup should have option for allowed usergroups.

                                  As for now, members can be moved to admins or employees usersgroups or even guests.. and this is exploitable.

                                  • Internet EULA

                                    Add a window with custom legal text and an "I agree" and "Cancel" button that appears when someone launches the internet.
                                    This box would contain a bunch of legal jargon about how the GC is not responsible for internet content, we monitor your browsing, and if you look at porn you will be banned with no refund.
                                    This way there is no excuse for someone browsing something they shouldn't. "Oh I didn't see the sign that said 'no porn'

                                      I'd like to see the ability to have an application or game that could have a separate price. An example would be World of Warcraft $1/hour, when the rest of the games are $3/hour. I'd like tobe able to do this without limiting a customers usergroup.

                                      • Add Game/Product Cloning for Easy Additions

                                        Some games, applications, and/or products and offers can be tedious to add. Some are very complex or have advanced options.

                                        With this feature, you can clone a similar product/offer/game to make it easier to modify it to your advantage!

                                        EXAMPLE:
                                        You want 5 steam games, all setup a certain way and worded exactly the same. You'll have steam, steam (1), steam (2), etc. It's so much easier to edit an existing similar entry than redo the entire entry from scratch!

                                        EXAMPLE:
                                        Or example , Lock-In, very odd hours.. 11pm-7am, Fridays only, x minutes... Now you want to add a Lock-In… more
