This is the third part of the Ghacks best of 2011 series. In this top list, I’m going to look at the best software for the Microsoft Windows operating system that we have reviewed in 2011 here at Ghacks. We posted a total of 937 Windows related stories in 2011, of which the majority were software related.

Please tell me you are using an App to collate your links!?


I don't use an app for it but i've written some small custom code that helps format the recent posts for the newsletter, so it's mainly a matter of pruning and reorganizing.

Happy New Year to all of you.

I am so glad I got to spend 2011 with all of you.  You made it funner and more interesting, and I can't think of a better bunch of folks to spend my time with.

Here's hoping 2012 will take its time and linger a bit.

Or if anyone is willing to screencast their own software, that would be some help too -- not to mention that you'll surely do a better job than I will.

General Software Discussion / AddictiveTips posts their top 150 windows Applications of 2011
« Last post by mouser on December 31, 2011, 10:28 AM »
Nice list with some new apps to discover.  Number 44 happens to be a program (Ethervane Echo) created by a DC member for this year's NANY.

At the dawn of 2011, we provided you with a list of 150 best Windows application of 2010. This, year we covered not only Windows software, but also Mac OS X and Linux applications in great number. Since Windows is the most widely used operating system, we tried to keep our focus on finding and covering best Windows software, tricks and tips. While it is important to look for all the good things that the future might hold, it is also worth looking back to see the fine finds of previous year. Keeping the tradition alive, we now have a compilation of the 150 best Windows applications of the year 2011. So, it’s time to browse through to some extremely handy applications and pick the ones that best suit your needs.

Works great and very useful!

I think this will prove very useful to use with a screenshot program that makes it easy to drag and drop images to your program (like my Screenshot Captor -- sorry for the plug!).  Great for producing combination images.

One feature request: Ability to remove individual images.

Yes I think it can be very easily done
We’ll just put some bleachers out in the sun, and then make an alias like this:

Now when you type something like "bdi new"
it will show the contents of E:\MyDownloads\new

Modify for your needs.

I'd love to see some screensavers created with this.  And do try to make use of the Quotes feature -- it's one of the unique abilities of the program.  Happy to help people who get stuck, just ask.

N.A.N.Y. 2012 / NANY 2012 Release: Multi Photo Quotes Builder (MpqBuilder)
« Last post by mouser on December 29, 2011, 12:24 PM »
NANY 2012 Entry Information

Application Name Mpq Builder
Version 1.01
Short Description A GUI tool to let you build installable screensavers to share with others, powered by my MPQ Screensaver Engine.
Supported OSes WinXp,Vista,Win7
Web Page none yet
Download Link See MultiPhotoQuotes web page.


ATTENTION: Discussion of MPQ Builder should now take place in the MPQ forum area.


Description
My Multi Photo Quotes screensaver is hugely popular, having at least 3 users that I know of.  In my mind these users have been clamoring for an easy-to-use "builder" tool that would let them package screensavers for their friends, that contained images and quotes of their own creation.  This is that tool.

Features
  • Builds standalone screensavers with installer/uninstaller support.
  • Easy to add your own quotes to the screensaver.
  • Uses all the power of the Multi Photo Quotes engine.
  • Free for personal use

Screenshots
Screenshot - 12_29_2011 , 10_16_02 AM.png

This is an early beta.. Let me know any problems you run into.

Screencast Video Overview
Screenshot - 12_30_2011 , 5_54_18 AM.png

Thanks

Special thanks to Inno Setup, the awesome setup tool that is harnessed to produce/package the screensavers.

Question:

Would it be helpful if the Ctrl+T pressing was automated as well?
