PS: I changed the order of the license types everywhere. "Standard" is now promoted first, "Lifetime" second. (Hey, I had this idea even before you suggested it! So it must be good )

BTW: it's good for me when people buy Standard, because this means they will give me money again later!

Ok, so then why does the blue header say "Single" instead of "Standard"?
I think most everyone would understand that it's for a single vs multi..

BTW, in the Registration Details page, under benefits, you say as third item: "Free support via online user forum"...
Have you ever denied support to anyone in forum? I think not...so this could possibly be altered/enhanced to be something like "Free email support" and thus could be a way to give buyers something that is different from others...
Yes, we realize that you may respond almost as quickly to forum, and maybe ever sooner on occasion, but advertising forum support as benefit when it's available to all might not be so ideal....just my $.02!

"Single License" is a self-explaining term, whereas "Standard License" is meaningless until you find and read the definition.

I give email support to customers, but I do not expressly guarantee it. An important difference...

But the problem is: A lifetime license is also available as either single or multiple! You get my drift?

While I do agree that Standard may not mean as much until one reads the desc, my guess is that most people have run into similar policies with other software, and thus the 'Standard' has some initial meaning in that it differs from some other possible options.

IF you had "Single, Standard Lic" in blue, then there would be no way to confuse it with other variants, but as it now reads, there is a conflict in a small way.

Maybe put the 30 day trial as second item, and put/wrap Sin-Std-Lic onto 2nd line?

There's a link to history.txt on http://www.xyplorer.com/whatsnew.htm, there's the forum, there's jc's update blog... XY's development pace is not exactly a secret.
OTOH, I can imagine that not everybody is enthusiastic about such speed of change. So I do not want to scream too loud about "buy today, tomorrow you won't recognize it again"...

Maybe part of graham's idea would still be practical, which is a summary count of total new/changed features and bug fix count, as those type of stats are typical on other software sites.
