It took me a while and two attempts to figure out that the button came only after clicking the menu area on the top. At the beginning I thought it was being automatically added.
Would this be suitable?



(Verify Local Data moved to the menu as I don't see it being used commonly (having Add in the menu wasn't well thought out, agreed), and cancel being the back button in the top- right corner)

It's probably the best I can get it due to space constraints (and I'd prefer not to make it a scrolled window).
I'd also rather not remove any options as, for me, using µTorrent, the ability to change download folder for a single torrent, adding it in a paused sate, and being able to select the files you want to download all are useful things to me.
But, the Add button can be made bigger if desired.

Yes, most are using the stock icons that are a part of GTK. The icon for the "start torrent" and "add torrent" are taken from what I used for Diablo (I looked in /usr/share/icons/hicolor on my N800); I have no idea what they look like on a real device even - they're blank in the SDK.
I can try and substitute as much icons as I can using the /usr/share/icons/hicolor in the SDK but I cannot ensure that the end result will look good on a device. Which is why I've, so far, stuck to the stock icons - I know that they'll (despite being rather bland) show up in both the SDK, and on a real device.

Designing icons myself is not an option as I cannot use The GIMP to save my life.

OK, I've had a root through the SDK icons and this is what I've managed to see, any icons that don't suit the action that it is meant to depict?



(The pause icon shown here isn't in the SDK so I can't really include it (yet) )

Thanks again!

P.S: Apologies for the messiness of this post.
