I'm thinking an "lcd" stop watch looking face?
An hourglass? Are animated icons possible? If so it could have the sand flowing. Of course, the hourglass has bad connotations for WIndows users...

I'll do one stop watch version, and if the concensus is "no dice" then I'll do an hour glass one, I should have the icon for tomorrow.

There is a field in the .desktop file called "X-Multiple-Instances=[true/false]" -- I've never actually looked into it, but that may be a good starting point.

Version 0.5-9 has made it to extras! Thanks everyone for your testing and comments.

I am now starting a new development version to fix some issues and to fit with the "Personal Dataplan Monitor" and "Personal IP Address" look and feel. Keep a lookout for 0.6-1, coming soon.

Thank you for this nice app!

This is still the best place to propose new features, right? I think that it would be nice if it could be used like a timer, with an alarm which is played when the countdown ends, and the possibility to set a time lapse (e.g. 20 minutes) instead of a specific time (e.g. 5:47pm).

What do you think?
I believe that currently there is no such app in the repositories.

Hey fifer, I've just upgraded to the latest Personal Countdown widget...I really miss the theme customisation bit, I used to have this widget transparent over a photo of my gf with countdowns until I next see her :P (long distance relationship) but now it's just a big black box covering her face, definitely not what I want

Any chance you could put this feature back in?

Wichall, I will look to add an option to switch between the theme settings and custom settings. You can try switching to a theme that has more transparency for the time being.

Ok I'll give that a go, but as far as I remember the old version included that option as a checkbox "use system style" didn't it? It's just now this version only allows that for fonts
