Support for 768x1024 portrait resolution (of course web-only, not for all games)?
What could you say about to create "GOG Encyclopedia"? It will be nice to see some kind of abandon games museum on this website, similar in idea to "Home of the Underdogs" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Home_of_the_Underdogs) for example.
Oh, and dunno if this has already been said but... I WANT to know all the games running DOSBox...
I think about german translations because i played the german version of system shock 2 and it was great.
I'd like to throw my vote in for providing DOSBox-wrapped games as native Mac downloads as well. I know this would only apply to a handful of the games on GoG, but even so it would be a great surprise to grab a old game to find out I have both options in my downloads.
Oh, and it would be REALLY cool to be able to follow a thread with e-mail notifications of the new posts. Dunno if the engine you guys use for the forum permits this, but it would be damn really cool, for me....
I don't know if it has been mentioned yet, but at least an option in settings to have clicking on the thread name take you to the first page rather than the last. Normally when I want to read a topic I like to start from the beginning, rather than the end. ;-)
Yes, I know I can click on the little 1, but it's so very small, and since I automatically assume I'm going to the first page (which happens at every forum I go to but this one), I'm often quite confused to start the thread at the end and wonder what the one I assume is the first poster is talking about, when really they are replying to an earlier post.
Please tell me how to exploit your website or downloader so that I may download my purchased games during my ISP's off-peak period: 3am to 10am. Most days I am at work from 4am to 2pm. No I don't have time to start a download before work.

Maybe you can use a macro.

This.
Tally one more in support of Paypal.
I also saw someone suggested a feature such that we can add a full list of games we have. It looks like there's already a feature along these lines that will display what games we have gotten from GoG. I'd suggest we be able to add other games too and perhaps highlight in some fashion the ones we've gotten from GoG (actually highlighted, at the top of the list, with an icon next to the game title... something like that.)
Most importantly: the Wishlist is great! Hopefully it will provide the support GoG needs to convince publishers (especially the behemoth that EA turned into) that it's in their interest to publish their older titles through GoG.... However, I think on this side we could improve the wishlist by having an easy way to flag an entry for review by a senior community member or the appropriate person at GoG for repeat entries. For example, there's an entry for "Dark Sun - Shattered Lands" and "Advanced Dungeons & Dragons Darksun". Another would be "Alpha Centauri And Expansion Set" while there's already an individual entry for both "Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri" and the expansion. The reviewer would be able to delete the duplicate. And if ya wanted to fudge some numbers.... add the votes from the deleted title to the one kept. (So maybe some people then get to vote twice... just more ammo for GoG to show the publishers! Of course, that's not particularly accurate data then, is it.......)
Just some thoughts.

A clean, spare (minimalist), well-constructed website is part of what attracted me to GoG. Maintain that.
More information about the company, where you intend to take it, how you make games compatible with xp/vista, etc. Essentially a major "how we work" FAQ.
Also some more clout with EA and LucasArts is in order. I'm afraid I don't have any to spare, though. Sorry.
Be more up front about which games are emulated and which work with Windows natively.
Moar Linux support.
Also, can the forums please show the last user who posted in a thread? It makes it so much easier to keep track of what's going on.
I second that last post by thing for the message boards. It can be pretty confusing with only the thread starter available.
