sViz,

Approved the code snippet. Thomas, we need some kind of notification email sent to me/you when someone posts a snippet or other item that needs approval. Also, need a way to delete them as well.

Do you guys plan on adding a forum section or a chat box?

Also, can members submit news or will there be a separate article section?

ID has his "this month in Dreams", I don't see why (with content) we can't do the same.  I'll help write it with the DX-er input.

Cool! I was mulling over the idea the other day, and figured to get a complete spectrum (there tends to be more weather widgets submitted in a month than anything else), there might need to be categories.

Best Weather/clock/general info widget-- weather, clocks, system meters etc
Most creative/original-- outside the box stuff
Most innovative/resourceful-- think Vad_M's Weather Lab
Best DX theme

...to name a few.

The DX galleries are slow so if there aren't enough to feature you could go back to older submissions.

Nice :CONGRAT:

Argggg, someone took my freakin' user name!

Oh, well.

+1 I'll be watching for that.  

I'll need input to produce output. 

Let's kick it off with a Top X widgets of all time. ReadySetGo!

Hm won't let me post code. Can this not be done?

You know, using the [ code ] and [ / code ] tags?

WC user stats,(too bad it's buggy), SD media Processor4.0 Simple taskbar,Pretty much all the silica stuff, they go with anything. Objects: Hands down has to be Killer Meters and Killer Media Player by Tiggz-How did he DO that?And ColonyMeters by Mike Bryant  I have a lot of players, need a separate catagory for them.Long Live Rock N' Roll! :CONGRAT: 

hey all.. we are working on some of these issues. SirSmiley, can you email me or Tom to let us know the RIGHT email address? I think we should be able to keep the user names (not 100% sure, will see what i can do).

Please email me with anything important.

Eh, you mean the all-time most downloaded? That has its own stat page, though. Why not some good ones that have been recently uploaded?



Ya mean my WC User Activity Stats? You should probably re-download as I have since updated it. (WC site changes made it go wacky. If you currently don't see any names listed, it's because WC doesn't hasn't fixed that yet.)

I guess this would be a bit biased at time, but the idea is good... Maybe if you create severals Top X widgets criteria like:
Top X widget (creativity)
Top X widget (....)
Top X widget (useful)
Top X widget (Downloaded Last week)
Top X widget (Downloaded 30 days)
Top X widget (Downloaded Last year)
Top X widget (Downloaded Anytime)

Top downloaded does not equal what you, the DX coders, think is teh best.

There may be very popular clocks that are the top downloaded of all time . . but unless they do something amazing . . there's no need to be on our list.

Martin's weather script might be something we feature . . but we may not feature any actual gadgets. 

Thanks,sVis(and no slur on anyone's work was intended,btw) I'll replace it today, it used to black screen on me when changing colors or adding names to the list. I hope WC gets the names back soon. Also,for SirSmiley, I can't get this Folder Icon Changer to work at all, it's probably me. Will this work w/Vista,and if not could you please update it? WWW LinkIt would go to the top of my list! Thanks.

Anyone know if Vista uses Desktop.ini files? If the answer is yes, then off the top of my head with out looking at the script this should work.

Will have a look at it when I get a chance or need a break from this birthday list widget.

Thanks, SirSmiley,as I said, it could be me. ;p No hurry at all. sViz the new version seems to be working great,super!TY :CONGRAT:

Hi, I think the site is a great idea. I am new to desktopX and already addicted to widgets. As a beginner i have learned to change a clock face image of an existing widget, but i still haven't found a tutorial to make a clock from scratch. If you know of one, let me know. It would be great if your site could have tutorials for clocks, calendars and weather widgets for beginners like me.
Keep up the good work.
thanks.

The best tutorial is to look at existing objects.

Take a look at a few and ask questions about them.

Don't forget to read teh documentation too.

Good luck and have fun!

hello..please tell me..how to add comments.Thanks in advance
