I noticed that a lot of times it is hard to install software for the non-techies. Lots of great software products but sadly spread all over the place. Not to mention the very technical, hard to read, instructions how to install the great work fellow software engineers created! This application should make life more easy for the NMT users who want to extend their NMT with even more functionality. One central application which grouped all the top software and themes together in one application. For you to try!
Funny fact: the repository server is a HTTP server installed on my Network Media Tank by this very same Installer application!


Download
Download here.
.NET Framework 2.0 or up is required, Mono will work for most as well


Feaures

Repository based
Software will be on a central server, no big installation files! It only downloads what you want to install!

Easy
Just select required theme or application, software will do the rest!

Clean
Cleans up after itself, removes temporary files after installing.

Regular updates
Because software is stored on a central server the, we can add software for the installer when we want, no updates required for the users!

Please note:
Software/themes INSIDE the installer are not written by me. Those are created by other developers! Full credits go to the developers of those products!
For support for the products itself use the corresponding threads on these forums! Thus; no support for software INSIDE the installer.
