RCube,

took a screenshot and edited it a little by adding 1 pixel of space between the hour and minutes. if you're still open to suggestions, and if it's possible to do, it looks a little better with the 1 pixel space added, IMO :happy:

minor change but spacing is more even it seems

Nice work on the app RCube.

One thing I was wondering though, since this is a derivative from TClock, I can't run a second instance of it, so I'd like to ask if it would be possible that you bring back the start button customization feature?

Thanks! Keep up the great work =)

BxBoy thanx for the NIP! :)

crazy1 is right, the min and hour were too close together.

So 1 pixel gap added in 1.05a. Also single text shadow themes such as "Azure" works now.

BTallack, how does Neowin branding work?

jbo, I don't want to go into TClock's territory too much. And I like to get all the bugs out of the clock right now. But maybe a very simple way to customize the start button can be worked into LClock2 in the near future. :)

BTallack, how does Neowin branding work?

There are several Neowin branded programs right now, such as AutoPatcher or UXTheme Multi-patch. Both of these are utilities that simply have the Neowin prefix and are supported by Neowin's members. There's a specific section of the forum for Neowin branded applications.

To make it official though, I believe you'd have to contact one of the Admins. PM Redmak, Voodoo, or Neobond. They all usually pretty quick to get back to you.

BTW, if you need a mirror for your program, I'd be glad to provide one for you.

Everybody please update to 1.10a. It has some cool new features that should make everybody happy. :D Just play with the LClock2.ini file.

superclo, now you can use 24hour time or double digit hours. And also take off the AM/PM.

jbo, you got that start button. Look in the LClock2.ini file. Also startbtn.bmp. :D

TonicX, now you can change the font/size/etc. But you might have to play around with the position setting once you change the font.

Thanx BTallack! :) And thank you guys for offering to host the little program. Once development slows down a bit I'll let you guys know. ;) And yeah I don't mind getting it Neowin branded. :)

So we are at 1.11a. I have made an installer to go with the program. :D

Now I am looking for a cool icon to go with the program. If you are interested in having your icon as the offical LClock icon, please post some designs here. :p But it must be small in file size.

      Google was using the old CATPCHAs data to train their LLMs. What is the say they won't use this camera data of users to train their LLM? these companies need some strict regulations!

      Depends on what you need. Might be a bit clearer on what you plan to do with it. Sort of a waste if you get the newest and greatest, but don't know how to use it.

    • How do you future-proof a home or small office network?

      By rosiecharles · Posted

      Hi everyone, I'm planning a small network upgrade and was wondering how others prepare their networks for future needs. Do you usually invest in higher-speed switches and better cabling from the start, or do you upgrade only when necessary? I'd be interested in hearing what has worked well for you and any lessons you've learned over time. Thanks!
