EDIT: July 13, 2004

The skin now uses an image for weekdays, instead of them being drawn on the background image. Now you folks that "Start weekdays from Monday" can set that option back on in Rainlendar config.

I have also renamed all the images with the prefix "Red" so that when other colors become available it will be much easier to sort all the schemes out in your skins folder.

INFORMATION:

===

This skin is based on Apple's Dashboard Datebook widget which will be available

in the "Tiger" OS [2005].

Magbi9 & Sid did a version for Rainlendar that I saw at:

[ http://www.aqua-soft.org/board/index.php?showtopic=18173 ]

but it doesn't include the "ToDo" list or the "Reminder" box which are part of

more recent versions of Rainlendar. [ http://www.ipi.fi/~rainy/index.php ]

In no way did I use their graphics to make this skin. In fact, I designed it from the ground up using images posted by "Duckie" at [ http://www.therealduckie.net ], also mentioned in the forum linked above.

Now, since Rainlendar is what it is, there are certain things that could not be replicated exactly. So, I had to take a liberty or two in design. The left white panel would normally show the day and month. But since Rainlendar can't do this sort of thing 'yet' I have opted to place images [crops of my own photos] in that panel, and have the month and year in the right panel. This way, you get a picture to look at each month!

* Be sure to read the readme.txt in the archive

Alrighty folks, here's the "GREY" theme for my Rainlendar Dashboard.

All three layouts are included, of course. Screenshot only shows one, as I'm lazy when it comes to doing shots ;-)

INFO:

Simply unzip the archive into the SAME directory as your current Manyk Dashboard skin directory. All the files [ini and graphics] have been renamed accordingly. So when you reload/refresh Rainlendar, a new set will show in the skins menu for Rainlendar. [same as before, just 3 more with prefix Grey]

Ergo blue would be cool. There's a few errors when applying the Grey one, the ToDo is referencing days and others are calling grey days etc, little stuff like that. But a goddam sweet skin.

Um ... that is VERY strange .. because when I look at the ini files for the greys, they all are referencing grey images here ... and these are the ones I zipped!

The skins have been edited to use a weekday image. Now you folks that choose to start your weekdays from Monday don't have to alter that setting in Rainlendar's config.

For SOME reason I can't edit my post for the Grey color version, so only the initial post file is updated, the red one.

To download the updated "Grey" version, get it from Deviantart

Excellent skin!

Can I ask what font you used for the numbers and text etc? And also, is it the font in the Directions on the the Grey preview?

TIA

Tom :)

Font for the Weekdays [sMTWTFS] = Helvetica Medium

Font for the Dates [1-31] = Lucida Sans Unicode

Font for the "Grey" preview image text on right side = Lucida MAC ... Don't have the psd for the screenshot.

    • Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order by Pradeep Viswanathan In April this year, Anthropic launched the Claude Mythos Preview frontier model with state-of-the-art cyber and coding capabilities for a select set of companies around the world. After preparing appropriate guardrails, early this week, Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, its most capable AI models. Claude Fable 5 is for general users and comes with strict safeguards, while Mythos 5 is designed with fewer safeguards for cybersecurity and biology use cases. Today, Anthropic abruptly suspended access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models for all customers after receiving an export control directive from the US government. The company received the directive from the government today at 5:21 p.m. ET, and the received letter did not provide any details regarding the national security concern. Anthropic understands that the government became aware of a method to bypass, or “jailbreak,” Fable 5, which might be the reason behind the directive. The order was issued under national security authorities and requires the company to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether they are inside or outside the United States. The restriction also applies to foreign national employees working at Anthropic. As a result, the company has disabled both models for all customers to ensure compliance. Access to previous Anthropic models like Opus and Sonnet is not affected by this government order. The company highlighted that it had developed strong safeguards to reduce the possibility that Fable is misused for tasks related to cybersecurity. In fact, many developers are complaining that the safeguards are going overboard. Additionally, the company worked with the US government, the UK AISI, multiple private third-party organizations, and internal teams to red-team Fable’s safeguards for thousands of hours. Finally, Anthropic noted that no testers have yet been able to find a universal jailbreak on Fable 5. As expected, Anthropic disagrees that a narrow potential jailbreak should lead to the recall of a commercial model used by hundreds of millions of people. It warned that applying this standard across the AI industry could effectively halt new frontier model deployments. Anthropic concluded by mentioning that it is working to restore access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 as soon as possible and plans to share more details within the next 24 hours.
