maemo.org launcher button
 
this just opens http://talk.maemo.org/ in the microb browser
i like to open pages like this as it stops the 'bookmarks page' from also opening, and the icon is smaller on my desktop compared to a browser bookmark, and as im now running 9 desktops i figured i would fill them with loads of junk!!

put the 'maemo.org.desktop' file in /usr/share/applications/hildon
put the icon into /usr/share/icons/hicolor/64x64/hildon
(i use winscp for that)

How do you create the desktop file? Is is just a case of the name of the website then .desktop? So BBC would be bbc.co.uk.desktop? I am sure it can't be that easy. I am currently using 6 desktops but would love to switch to 7 if I could have one desktop with shortcuts to all my favourite websites.

It is really easy...
Copy the .desktop from me or leetut...
Change the http string and the names of the app and, icon and so on...
Pick a picture, edit and save it as png!

That's basically it

just use the ones uploaded here,
change the files name to BBC.desktop
or whatever you want
then inside the file replace the website address with the bbc url
and change the icon name to whatever you name your icon
and change the 'name' and 'comment' to whatever you like
(and it was brother 'dscobsct' that first showed me how to do it over at SF!)
(and rolan900d is our dad!)
