Cool stuff, I might wanna start working on mine again lol.
Since I actually have time, I might make it a side project again,

It would be nice if this launcher was included with the release. It would also be nice if it interfaced with the website for the realms AND for voting. other than that, it looks awesome.
UPDATE:
It's been a few months, but now that I'm settled into work and school I've finally gotten around to updating the launcher.
I'm still working on the Armory, it should be out fairly soon. Until then, here's the update :)
Changelog:
Download Links:Code:1.1.3.0
- Added Ragnaros to the statistics panel
- Rearranged the servers to keep consistency between the website and launcher
- Due to the amount of servers the 'Statistics' panel is now scrollable; used by dragging it up or down
- The 'Refresh' button now refreshes the news as well as the server statistics
- Fixed an issue where the application would crash if a connection to Molten could not be made

I really like your launcher :D
Are you studying informatics or is this just a hobby? (just wondering :p)
Thanks for your support :)
Right now I'm in my third year of Computer Science at my school, I'll be going to college next Fall and plan to major in Computer Science.
This launcher is just a pet project of mine and many of the concepts I used to create it go above and beyond the scope of my AP CS class.
Very nice launcher you have here. I'll def be using this from now on. :D
Hey,
I am making something of my own. Not as good as yours but, wanted to try this. Not a full time developer so, it's taking time.
I'm not a full time developer either, I've just been taking programming courses for the last few years and made this on a whim. Right now I'm busy with school and work, I hardly have any time to myself anymore.
I'd love to see what other community members come up with, it helps me make my own better branching off your ideas and hope you would do the same :) Short of blatantly ripping off literally my exact format and using terribly written code that may or may not have some sort of malware attached to it like a certain person did that I won't mention...
This launcher is not freeware, nor have I made the source code available. Yet a simple Google search will point you towards decompilers to look at the code, even if it is a bit incoherent and in a fairly different form what I see and use.
When I do get some free time I'll be working on getting the Armory implemented. Until then, I love hearing your guys' feedback and appreciate the support!
You can change your WoW directory in the 'Options' menu, just click browse and select your directory.
EDIT: I'm going to attempt to release the next update to coincide with Molten finishing up the new Armory snapshots, but along with coding come lots of unforeseen issues, so at the moment this is just a goal.
I'll be putting out a fix within the next few hours, the launcher will temporarily just have a blank spot until they bring back the Alliance : Horde ratios, it will be more work to delete all the code if they are just planning on bringing it back.
---------------------------------
UPDATE:
Fixed the issues caused by Molten's new website layout, but in all likelihood it will have to be changed again as queues resume and the Alliance : Horde ratios are back.
