Wonderful idea!

Just to clear things up with the reports, we did see it, but I think it's against our policy to move a topic not created by the Scratch Team or moderators up to Announcements, except in very, very special circumstances.  smile

Sounds cool! As with all code on the webs, it's wise to make sure you know and trust the creator / maintainer of an app before downloading and installing it. So it's good idea to tell your friends about this first!

Also, if you'd like to drum up more interest, include some Screenshots to show others how it works.

Cool idea though! You should also post it on the Scratch Day site.

I think he thought you were trying to say "Windows 7 is terrible! It doesn't have Mac OSX's dashboard!"

I did not mean that at all. I just was trying to say that windows does not have dashboard, and that's the only thing I can create widgets for

I downloaded it, now what? I couldn't find any installation.


If you are reading this, please read to the end, because if you don't you won't know what's at the end. Don't just skip to the end though otherwise you won't be able to read the middle, which is most important. Now you must be wondering why you just read all that, the reason is you may have not noticed something, read it again and see if you notice it this time  smile
