3-click downloads
#7
Quote:I click the link I want. Then I click "download". Then I click "download" again. Then I wait 5 seconds. Then the file finally downloads.
The first click shows you the info page. I believe the second one exists to lets you choose between multiple files (for the same version of the same ... uh ... "file") - I once accidentally re-uploaded one of my files in a certain way that caused this to happen, that's why I know such a feature exists ... I think ... The 5 seconds delay is probably to prevent impatient multiple clicks on the Download button (plus I know people who double-click stuff even on web pages) - which is probably what the saving bandwidth thing is about.
