using the good old sidebar with colored icons was MUCH MUCH faster.

Screens are getting higher density -- and text is getting smaller.
Allow ability to set ALL fonts (in all views) to larger size - like 15pt.
nice for menubar stuff too and the "settings" in the find dialog

Give us the option to set the color of the path and status bar colours to grey, or other color. The current bluish gradient just doesn't look right when in context with the rest of the app (which is grayish)... please give us the option to make it grey, with blue only in dual pane mode (to see which pane has focus), and let us set the gradient color. Thanks for a fantastic app!!

SugarSync.com is simply the best cloud syncing service available for the Mac, PC, and mobile devices. Once folders are set up to sync via SugarSync to the cloud, syncing is completely automatic. Folders that are synced, are displayed in the Mac OSX Finder using specific status icons. Please look into working with SugarSync to display these icons as they work perfectly in Finder.

It can be difficult to read 9pt font that is smoothed. (Both in file lists and on Desktop)

Please add support for Growl notifications after long copy operations.

Implement feature to merge all windows into a single tabbed window, just like in Safari (Window:Merge All Windows). Often I've got a dozen windows open and 3-4 are PF windows looking at different folders. Expose fails in this case as all PF windows look alike.

Tab sets appear to be very useful and powerful. Unfortunately, you need to explicitly open at least one tab in order to get the menu where you can open a tab set. I would love to have an item in the favorites bar (or in the toolbar) where I can directly access my the Tab sets.

Setting folder options (view options) like icon sizes by default applies to all folders, which is rather useless. I'd like to adjust it on a per folder bases *without* constantly switch the scope toggle. Also make it work for a folder tree (like setting big icons for a tree of movie folders, but smaller ones for documents).

If you have two files, i.g. "test.pdf" and "test (1).pdf", it's sorted like this:

test (1).pdf
test.pdf

If you mask the suffix, it's sorted the other way:

test
test (1)

so the sort algorithm should only consider the suffix if the filenames are equal.

Trivial, I'm afraid, but I'm afraid I really DON'T like the new '3d globe icon' introduced in Path Finder 6.0.1. Sorry :-(

This way, it looks more Lion-like.

Would be easier to understand in picture (http://dribbble.com/system/users/42098/screenshots/260499/safari_v5.1_osx_lion__download_manager.jpg?1315490157)

I'm always clicking on the wrong one! Maybe the old fashioned storage icon from the flowchart template.

The status line shows relevant info for the currently active pane in the dual pane view mode. It would be cool if the status line were split and each pane's info was shown at the same time.

For novices, having the same size and typeface as Finder can be a psychological comfort or boost. I know it sounds silly, but just having a different font to contend with can make the learning curve higher. More advanced users can or will alter the fonts according to their preference. Novices can have a heck of a time figuring out that you do this under "View" rather than "Preferences"!

I have a feature request: One thing that Leap from Ironic does well is how it automatically readjusts the sizes of the icons in icon view. In Leap this is standard however this is preferably an option. This
would be a great addition to pathfinders icon view.

Allow the user to move the preview pane to the right side of the file list.
