Color coded download percent bars

[TravisOwens]

I think the new graphical download bars in the current 1.5.1 beta should use different colors according to status, ex:

Blue = Currently downloading fine

Green = Finished, 100%

Yellow = was downloading / waiting for a seeder or peer with more data

Red = Problem

Update: I've updated my color suggestions to reflect uTorrents current icon colors for status.

i dont like the graphical download bars and don't use 'em but since they're already there this would be not a bad idea for the ones that use it, except for the color's u chose

That would be a bit too colorful. An idea like this would be fine: http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?pid=184552#p184552

Well to prove it won't be too colorfull (keep in mind 99% of your torrents will remain blue or green) here's a mockup I made.

BTW: I kind of forgot about the color icons on the left of the torrent name, so I guess I need to revise my color suggestions.

hmmm, actually looks too colorful

perhaps just a blue for downloading/seeding and grey to stopped

Yellow seems a bit odd, it's far too rare for that to happen to be its own colour.

If you don't like it, just use "gui.graphic_progress" in advanced options.

as long as there is still an option to have one 1 color for those of us who want it, I think it would be nice for some people.
