Title: DONE - IDEA: make the taskbar shift through a range of colors gradually
Post by: turtleboy1992 on April 30, 2005, 09:33 PM: maybe give it options to choose which range of colors and how long to go from one color to the next. is it possible without overloading the cpu too much? :(

Post by: mouser on May 01, 2005, 12:25 AM: well, i did encourage you guys to post useless program requests didn't i...
but let's aim for programs that wont be used to turn humans into robotic killing machines, as i'm afraid some of turtleboy's requests might..

Post by: skrommel on October 13, 2005, 07:38 PM: :-\ But why not scroll images in there, too? Or on any other window, for that matter? There's plenty of skinning apps, but are there any live ones?

I'll be back!

Post by: turtleboy1992 on November 02, 2005, 04:12 AM: thanks skrommel. i realize that during the coding snacks request for ideas i may have gotten carried away, but i thought you guys might want a few wierd ideas that sound like fun things (at least to me ;) ). anyway, i meant no offense to anyone for the requests. i respect your abilities to code these "snacks". I appreciate this. what do i need to donate and where?

Post by: mouser on November 02, 2005, 04:43 AM: love the turtle avatar :D

everyone who appreciates all the great work skrommel does can make a donation directly to him by clicking on the paypal button on the left hand side of his new page: https://www.donationcoder.com/Software/Skrommel/index.html

Post by: turtleboy1992 on November 04, 2005, 05:11 AM: thanks! ;D I didn't see that (about the donation link) when I was on his webpage originally. I found the avatar using google image search a long time ago. I thought he was cute, so I kept him. I liked my highschool nickname far better than my gradeschool one (boll weevil), so I usually pick usernames with turtle in them. I was named boll weevil because a kid/friend? thought I had a hook noose like the boll weevil. True as it may be, I never really liked that nick. :(

A new request: is there a way to add frosted or milkglass transparency,
but only the background, not the fontcolor or thumbicons?

Like this ...

Post by: delwoode on August 24, 2009, 07:49 AM: Couldnt there be a second version that enables you to simply change the colour of your taskbar. I would like to change mine without using windows styles, but I wouldnt want it changing all the time!

Seems to have happened in Windows 7 - just started using Windows 7 Professional (the proper version coming out in October) and I have to say I like it a lot. One of the features is desktop wallpaper slide shows. Nice.
