Post New Requests Here / Switch to window while alt tabbing

« on: November 23, 2009, 03:19 AM »

Wouldn't it be useful while alt tabbing that the corresponding window is switched to? In that case you can more easily switch to the window you want, right?

Post New Requests Here / IDEA: Small HTML color swatch

« on: August 25, 2009, 10:55 AM »

Hi there,

I wonder if there is an app which alows me to pick some colors, display them in a table, each 20x20 pixels, and when I click it I get the code copied (like #717171). When you click an empty one, you can pick one in a color panel, or add one manually. This app should have with 2 rows of each 10 spots for a color. Always on top function aswel.

« on: August 12, 2009, 09:03 PM »

You got these 1-900-INEEDCASH phonenumbers. But I wonder what combo's are possible at my own mobile number? Or home number. I want software where you enter a sewuence of numbers, and then it will look in a word list for words.


Is that hard to do? I would think of this as a webservice, but software would be fine.

Remove empty folders and folder not larges than a specified limit, in a folder specified by a user. Not that hard I guess?

Post New Requests Here / IDEA: Only show desktop when desktop is active

« on: July 03, 2009, 06:33 AM »

So when any other thing than the desktop is active, hide the icons. When is the desktop active? When clicked upon, or some shortcut key is pressed (windows key + d, windows key+m) or the show desktop icon is clicked on the quick launch bar.

General Software Discussion / Radio Software with Webinterface

« on: June 12, 2009, 01:29 PM »

Hello there,

I once had this piece of software which was quite nice: It made a mediastream which streamed over the web, with a stream you can open in most kinds of media players. It also had a web interface, where you were able to queue songs you want to be played, otherwise it would've played randomly, selected from pre-configed folders and stuff. Does anyone know the name of this piece of software of anything that is like this? It is not Orb or Winamp Remote. Thanks in advance.

Edit: I can recall that the logo was gray background with something orange.

Finished Programs / Coding Snack: Switch Filenames

« on: June 06, 2009, 06:11 AM »

Let's say, i've got 2 files: filea.jpg and fileb.jpg

But I want filea.jpg to be fileb.jpg and fileb.jpg to be filea.jpg. Normally the filenames I want to switch are longer, so it takes longer to switch them, because I have to copy/paste twice and stuff. I want a simple tool where I can drop 2 items and they will switch filenames.

Thanks a lot in advance!

Hi There,

some time ago I was looking trough photo books with my girlfriend, and I thought: What if the house burns down. Those memories are extremely valuable. I've a scanner, this one:

The problem is: What software should I use? Could I use software so that I could scan like 3 pics at the same time? What is the most efficient way to do this?

There are many pictures, like 500~1000 of 'em.

General Software Discussion / MTP Sync Software

« on: May 01, 2009, 04:29 PM »

MTP is a default protocol and stands for media transfer protocol. I'm looking for a very simple piece of software which allows me to create playlists and sync them to a mp3 player supporting this protocol. Songbird has it build in, but I'm looking for something different than songbird. WMP is a no-go, because it sucks.

Hi there,

I always find it fun in a comminuty to create a screenshot of your (fysical) desktop. Ill kick of with mine:
click zoom

Used rainmeter for the clock and most of the stuff on secondary screen (right). Used tweakui to remove the arrows from shortcuts. Royale theme from windows, used QTaddresbar for vista like effect. The videoplayer is GOMPlayer with Ambient Skin. Volume thingy is 3rvx.

Post New Requests Here / IDEA: Make your monitor corners look round

« on: April 23, 2009, 08:59 AM »

Maybe kind of useless, but I really wonder what my pc looks like when the corners are overlay with a black image of an outer corner.

Like this.

So 4 times this image, and later on maybe multiple monitor support. Maybe with the ability to set the radius of the rounded corner?

I want to be able to sync my Nokia calendar to google calendar, but that is not possible yet. You have to first sync to outlook and then to calendar or do it via mobile services which are too expensive for me.
