I'd like to place in a request for replacing that font dialog with http://wiki.maemo.org/Hildon-Extras#HeFontDialog because I also like the Droid Fonts but I'm biased...

ACK....... Ok, request is on stack ...

If possible, please could someone create a 'BeeCon' to display random images from Flickr's 'Most Interesting' pages? That would be great!

Best wishes

Yes I think so - I wanted it to work like the 'Yahoo' desktop widget which I think must draw from the same pool (not sure). Not sure how you would get it to change images though, time delays between changes etc etc.

I wish I could try, but I have absolutely no knowledge of commands or Linux and this widget, although having great potential, it a bit too complex for me to configure without support!

Best wishes

Tom

Customize Queen BeeCon Widget (>=v0.1.4) to display:
Random images from Flickr's 'Most Interesting' pages
The Beecon will display random photos/images from http://m.flickr.com. Change update policies as per your taste.

While proper backup/restore developments are in the brewery you can have a look HERE

Re: [Announce] Queen BeeCon Widget: Customizable and flexible monitoring tool.

Hi,

I seem to be having a bit of a problem getting the Ebay Snippet to work correctly. I followed your instructions (very clear - many thanks) but I cannot seem to get a correct output, i.e. I edit the ebay item number and click "Save and Run" and I get the item title and picture, but no timer.

Having read your recent message about the Flickr snippet I installed "Wget" application but this doesn;t appear to have done the trick.

What might be useful is a suggested 'default' for layout, font etc to optimise the appearance of the widget maybe?

Many thanks

Tom

Hi - please is it possible to alter the script to point the snippet to here:

http://m.flickr.com/#/explore/interesting/

Think the other page is static - my fault, sorry!

Uhm ... other page ain't static ... however fetching images from http://m.flickr.com/explore/interesting/ is no big deal ... just need some time to script't

Re: [Announce] Queen BeeCon Widget: Customizable and flexible monitoring tool.

My widgets aren't auto-updating. I removed .queen_beecon, restarted the desktop, and recreated the MLB example (see following post for some improvements). It works fine when I click it, but doesn't update every 5 minutes. I did double-check the settings, and it's set correctly. Grepping .queen_beecon shows delayIndex=3.

Any thoughts as to why the timers aren't firing? If it's relevant, it was working earlier and then stopped; the clean restart was an attempt to get it to work properly.
