MaQma Surveys
Even without documentation, it doesn't take long at all to figure out what's what with this component.

There are still a number of things that are needed, though:
- The General/Pages links? Very confusing. It looks like a header.
- Need the option to turn off the Flash animation in the control panel. It may be pretty, but it's mostly useless.
- Need the ability to customize CSS from the control panel. My site is using a dark background, and out of the box, Surveys looks horrible.
- Need to be able to restrict responses by IP. Currently, a survey with public access could actually be responded to twice by a registered user: once while logged in, and once while anonymous.
- Similarly, need to be able to ALLOW multiple responses per IP. Obviously these two feature requests are in conflict with one another, which is why the restriction should be set per survey.

Some suggested features:
- Be able to add HTML to options.
- Dynamic drop-down lists.
- Allow users to "save" their surveys and complete them at a later date. This would be especially useful for multi-page surveys.

Again, a slick component off to a great start, but it needs even more customization options to be truly versatile.

Thanks for the feedback Cleo, we'll release a new version today but for the next one we'll use for sure your feedback, most of your points if not all are very good points to add to the component.
