It would be useful to have a "View Option" to see the puzzle time remaining. One place on the GUI would be in the Score panel on the Bonus/Conditions line to the far right.

Adding color (e.g. Green/Yellow/Red) to the time remaining when the deadline gets close would also be nice.

Something like: "No bonuses or conditions. Puzzle deadline in 34:06:02.150"

http://fold.it/portal/node/986859 covers my initial idea but tlaloc's is good also.

I'll mark this one as Duplicate and bump the other one as these are all great suggestions.
