What's I'm up to

, , ,

Hi guys! I would like to tell ya that I'm currently making two games in Opera Widget format. One of them will be multiplayer (hot seat + internet) and that's very cool! Actually I did not see any online multiplayer games in widget format yet. Can not yet tell release dates because I need to write server-side code and I did not start it yet, but I hope for a week or two. Stay tuned!

My widget on Softpedia

Guys from Softpedia put my The THING on their site and gave me a certificate that my "application" is free from viruses (: Lol (:

Tiny Clock v2.0

Just released new version of my Tiny Clock widget. Version 2.0 includes six skins and it is made to replace standard windows clock on task bar.

You MUST download my newest widget NOW!

Cross-platform widgets?

, , , ...

As I stated in Opera Forums currently I'm making special library which will make widgets cross-platform. Currently I have version 0.1-ALPHA which is capable of rendering simple widgets from Yahoo! Widget Engine. Actually, it only supports YWE's window and image tags yet without any scripting. But I'm looked into YWE's scripting and found it relatively easy portable. Library will be released to public at 0.1-BETA and I think this will be done very soon.

And how it works? Very simple! You take Yahoo! widget of your interest, extract it somwhere (it is simple ZIP-file. Widgets for Opera are also simple ZIP-files!), then you put config.xml into unpacked folder root (see Opera's tutorial for it), put index.html and my library - ywe.js. If you now open config.xml in Opera 9 my script will try to handle Yahoo!'s widget. index.html should look like this:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>YWE Test</title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="ywe.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>

How to find unapproved widgets? And my new widget

, , , ...

I've found a way to search for unapproved widgets (: And this is very helpful! You need URL like this:
http://my.opera.com/community/customize/widgets/author/?id=Aux
And it will show all my widgets. You can change my highlighted nick to someone's else.

Also in the news my newest widget - BjustB 0.1. This is just a preview version. I've released it soon because some people really need it (: Here's a description: Widget for helping users to deal with BB-codes on different forums and/or blogs.
