Skinners, Artists, Coders, and Testers Needed: Community Suite

Happy Birthday!!

Wednesday, February 6, 2008 by ZubaZ | Discussion: Community

After the success on the Troll Thumping Day Suite some members of the Mother Thumpers are coming together to create the "Happy Birthday Suit(e)".

I envision this suite centered around a DX gadget that counts down to your birthday. On your birthday the gadget will prompt you to download the most recent incarnation of the suite components so for your special day, your desktop will celebrate with you.

At this point we have some components assigned to artists but this is a collaborative project and welcome input and assistance from everyone. Please jump in and help out if you'd like.

Looks like I'm late for this one.
I'd offer to do a dream but it looks like Pugboy has it covered.
Maybe on the next Community Suite.

carguy1, we *can* have more than one dream 
Or maybe you and pugboy can collaborate?
Or maybe you can arrange an "accident" that (ready for the pun?) renders him "unavailable"?

You and Po did pretty well with the WB of TTD?  You interested in collaborating?  Need to talk to him of course.
The IP slot is still open too.

And where is my Vista version


Its coming I dont have Vista on any of my machines so I have to do it kinda blind and test it at work so it is a little slower!

You only need OD+ to test 
It is such a great app though that you'll never regret getting it.

Why don't you used RomanDA's countdown widget for the birthday?  Or at least still his code... paybacks ya know. (did I say that out loud)?

caustic . . can you really have too many walls?  I'm adding you to the list.  Again, either collaborate or do your own thing.  We can decide if your work is "official" before submission if that's cool.

AVMAN, sure.  My email is on my personal page.

Bug . . if you want to set the standard for the WB with what you have we can go that way too.

Indeed. Although it'd be heaps easier to work from a WB or something; some kind of concept with which to draw from. (Just a preference for collaboration work like this)

... So if anyone (Po?) has even a screenshot of the proposed Start Panel - e-mail it to me. (info at nauticalinteractive dot com). Thanks.

I'd love to get David involved.  But I want a countdown that download the suite components, or launches a page of the components or something.

His Holiday Countdown Pro sets the bar as far as I am concerned for all countdown timers.  But really, do you think he wants me to be in charge of his work?  


HGE:  You're fired!
