Just uploaded version 1.11.01.
Mostly minor stuff and bugfixes, but a few noteworthy things like file filter mask, and online updater support.

How is it possible in this universe that someone else was insane enough to independently name another program "Drag and Drop Robot":

Surely this is a sign that the world is coming to an end.

Just a minor update to support the use of my configdir.ini file which lets you choose which directory configuration settings are stored in (ideal for portable vs. vista type installs).

LOL,  well why dont you collaborate with the author and integrate them together - that would be awesome.
It's actually that robot graphic that got my attention enough to make me want to try it. 
Pretty cool app.  I also watched the video. Useful video my only criticism of it would be that you spend a bit too long on rar'ing and zipping  and maybe you could have shown more on encoding mp3 or converting wav to mp3 and also converting full size jpg to smaller thumbails for the web -perhaps using irfanview or another app that accepts commands.
