How Should ObjectSplash Be Released?

I was just thinking about those people who avoid installers, and i wanted to see if i should release ObjectSplash with installer or a zip file.

Comments/Thoughts?

if you have the capability and the patience, why not both? :canadian:

If someone can't deal with a zip/rar/whatever versus an installer, they shouldn't mess around with GUI emulation, etc!

Seriously, of more import is file size. The added d/l time from an installer doesn't matter to the dowloader, but the accumlated total for the HOST could be measured in Gigs! Save the time and bandwidth and skip the installer, IMHO.

LOL, i was about to ask you if you were taking teh wiz's role :lol:

i think Ji Eun might be a very good idea... i would personally preffer a ZIP, unless i have to use replacer and stuff like that for prolongued periods, that would be a pain...

the zip will be at the bottom of the page and the installer is at the top -_-
