      This may be petty but …

      So depending on what side of the fence you are on it can be an upload or a download. It be helpful if when you hover the mouse over the upload or download icon fog would tel which way its sending data

      Upload (Get Image from PC and store on Server)
      Download (Load image from server to PC, replacing PC contents)
      or something like that so newbies my have a clue

        I understand what it is you are asking, you want descriptive tooltips 🙂

          Its the age old question am I uploading the image to the server or an I uploading to the target ? Depending on what side of the fence you standing on both are correct but they have totally different meanings

            It should be fairly safe to knowledge now-a-day’s that everything is from the perspective the client.

            The client “downloads” the image to itself. The client “Uploads” the image to the server." That’s it.

            Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved.

              In 1.1.1 it already has the Download / Upload descriptions… literally 1/4 inch to the right.

              Is a mouse over really needed?

              My follow up would be, you allow your end users to run the Fog imaging from their end (I presume you are) and hence get asked “Which one am I supposed to do to make my system like new?”

              Which your reply should be “Read the descriptions!”
