[WIP]: Happy Birthday Suit(e)
Anyone want to take a shot at building it?
Monday, February 4, 2008 by ZubaZ | Discussion: Community
I was sayign to myself . .wouldn't it be fun to have a Birthday countdown widget that on your birthday downloaded a WB skin with animated candles on the start panel and icing along the top of window frames with cake on the sides. 
And maybe weather, clock, and calendar widgets.
And then . . while we're there a few docks along the same theme.
It'd be fun to have a game where you had to blow out candles too.
The sutie would look incomplete without a Sidebar of course so maybe we need those too.
Would cursors shaped like a cake server be out of place?
And balloons . . and clowns . . . and . . and . . and . . .
Wallpaper, bootscreen, logon, rightclick, rainlender . . .
But for now . . I think we just need a countdown?
Anyone interested?

Thanks sAARGe.
Thanks Zubaz.
As i said that was just a quick idea after reading the post. Wouldnt mind trying to do something to go along with the theme style you all choose for this project. I have yet to get into tabbed docks though since I am currently using the free version of ObjectDock. So if you choose someone else to do them I promise not to start a thread whining about how i got screwed cuz I posted highly elite docks first that you did not want.

This post was intended as "Is anyone interested". That's a "Yes"
Now it's a "Work in Progress" thread. I'll update the title.
The other post is recruiting.

I know Po' is working on some reference images to base this thing off and I like zakai1369's design and you all kinda have an idea of what *I'm* looking for . . But this really is goin to be a community project. So post what you are thinking and we can all discuss it.
If you really like what Po' posted in #26 or sARRGe's wall (link) in #21 speak up. No one's feelings will be hurt if you like or dislike an idea (as long as you present it well).

All I gotta ask is think about this.
Is there anything that says 'happy birthday' more than a birthday cake?

Everything looks good as cake. I can see the suit in my head now and I love it. (But the translucency of balloons calls out for a skin.)

So then. Two community projects one suite of cakes and one of balloons and the dx widget lets you choose which you want on your birthday?
Kind of kidding but then again not a bad way to get even more of the community involved.

Let's get some reference documents and go from there.
