Thank you for not using JavaScript unnecessarily.

In fact, thank you for not requiring me to create an account or register or asking if I wanted to receive valuable offers via e-mail.

I'll comment back if it finds anything, but as far as the paint on the outside goes, it looks nice and is something I would definitely use.

[edit] - technically you did create an account and I did have to click a link to activate. I still stand by the thank you (and that's just smart going anyway).

So I said I'd follow up and I will.

I like the e-mail note. It only found one item but it said "A few items have been founding matching <my criteria>", which I take to mean that it groups its findings together in one e-mail, rather than sending an e-mail every time something is found.

Just my own pet peeve and this is disgustingly nit-picky and petty, but: "1 File(s) copied" has always bothered me. A plural check would be an improvement. Of course, had there been a plural check, I wouldn't have been able to comment yet.
