[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?

what about an Avatar ?
Easy enough I guess. Not sure if any birthday girls or boys will want to change their avatar here on their "special day" but it's easy enough to add to the list.

I dunno which thread to post in , so I will post in both. I have the perfect idea for the Start Window, I just can't do it.
You need one of these....
To go right across the top of the window and have it unroll every time the window is opened...with the noise effect. I would do it, but I totally suck at animations.
It could extend past the window , like the dragon in Molten does.

OK.. OK !!
Right .. what you see here is a Special .. as it is 2 sidebars in one ...
To clarify, there are different hovers and captions and backgrounds etc .. depending on which side you have your sidebar ...
As for the multicoloured 'Birthday Balloon - Glassy type texture', I thought it might be a start towards the finished sidebar ... I even, at this point , have a chocolate cake for the clock !!
Ignore the wallpaper although , it does match ...anyway see what you all think ...here ya go !
