+1, finally an end to different instances for different timers! With sound(s) I assume?. (One for all will fit my needs)

I really like the simple interface, but maybe some colours will distinguish the timers...
Something like this for example:


mouser:
May i suggest a paradigm for considering some options like setting colors?

The smartest thing might be to simply say that such options are not worth implementing.

But a second choice would be to say that it's not worth writing a whole user interface system for changing colors, and instead just support some way that advanced users can edit and an advanced setting file that is read that controls things like colors or sounds, etc.

The point i'm trying to make in general is that often its coding the user interface system for configuring esoteric options that makes adding such options so impractical, and that a manually-editable advanced options file idea might come to the rescue for a wide variety of features in a wide range of programs.

In general I agree that you can't endless implement user interface options. But since the only function of this GUI is showing how time flies, it deserves some display/style options.

How options are implemented isn't very important, the mock-up I made was just an example. Personally I don't like Ini-tweak screenshots. ;)
