[info] Comic Docklet

Hi everyone,

I have been working on this for awhile... its basically a docklet that downloads the current comic you have selected (you can freely configure it -- even for multiple comics).

I wanted to know what the interest is like on this docklet? I started making this after iCal long time ago, then my friend Quazimodo reminded me about it and he said he would like to have something like that.

What about everyone else?

edit: similar to the tasks docklet, this will popup a layered window (could be transparent) that is also skinned, with the currently selected comic in the middle.

I think that could be really cool. I would use something like that

I think is a great idea. Having more and more docklets that is giving your work a further twist from Apple is welcomed.

And I find the idea great, I will gladly use this docklet. Do you think you can have done before the August break ?

Cheers,

Vlad

I'll do my best... I have got the download, skinning, transparency, INI settings done. But I am still getting this 1 error thats been bugging me... If i get that fixed.. then the docklet will be released today or tomorrow.

Would love it been looking for something like that for samurize but a docklet would be much better

Sounds awesome.

Ghostwalker you are correct, it might look better on Samurize, BUT:

Why not see this as an option ? +

What I mean is that Samurize in nothing more than a transparent window on the desktop, and I am sure that albeik can produce a docket that will produce a transparent window along with the comics in the same manner.

Optionally you can choose that nice visualization method that albeik mentioned- similar with the task docklet so everybody can be happy.

And of course, as usual thanks albeik for your dedication to this community.

Vlad.
