Widget Developers: Competition Time!

A goodie bag! Me wants

\o/

Ok
Make a Royel bag for me ?

HEY! No fair starting this contest right after the PlanetWerks 2 release party!

Excellent!

I don't like local widgets because there'll never be one for Loughborough...

Yeah, I will start developing my own one...

O,o Can we have a widget made to help me with my CSS as in a WYSIWYG editor that is made for helping me design my OPERA page(s) as so far I can not find anything that really works well... O,o

And it can be for Loufhborough if you want.

Do only new widgets count or can i submit an update of an old widget?

Well, Goodie bags are for new widgets only.. But, if your update is major, and the widget goes from good to great! then we'll consider it a part of this competition :-)

YOU CAN DO IT ShadowK Make it happen.

Man, I would LOVE to see a WYSIWYG Widget for customizing user CSS on My Opera.

I found one that might help give the idea... Look at my Blog it is what I wanted from the start... Now I can change the background and the top banner as I like.

The rest is UBER simple and very clean. Very what I like. Cleaner than this page is. No joke.

EspenAO here is the site that hooked me up using WYSIWYG on the fly live online CSS creation... It is so SWEET. I am a CSS complete newbie overall. I know HTML basics but CSS not much.

This site also hooks it up for HANDHELD USERS also NOW THAT is DA BOMB baby!

Check my page out see what you think... I mean considering I have had it odd ways trying to make what took me less than 5 minutes tops to trick out to what it is now.

I hope this can inspire Opera to maybe build this into the NEXT Upgrade. But this is what I was talking about. Let me see the code, and as I fuss with it let me see what it is doing. Or let me do it fully WYSIWYG. I happen to like the code as much as the other.

But trying to think of what each wrap is and where and what a side bar is and top bar and such... EEECK In HTML watch out I can whip up a mean simple page no issue. CSS another beasty.

And in My Opera I hate with a passion that My Space junk that is being used all over... UGH...

Took me a while to hunt this down, but from now on all my CSS will be done using this... And it lets me make my own from a balnk, or any page I wiah to edit. All on the fly... In I feel the best WYSIWYG as you touch the code and learn what the code is, and also does in one very like Opera is AWESOME simple step. It just works. Like the browser I love so much.

Good luck buddy.

Kite

Here is another cool site with a widget to download. I have not used this yet... but looks pretty cool.

I'll be never a winner.

you are to me.

So if I understood correctly, a new winner will be announced every week?

What have in the bag ?
The last bag I receive have a lot of flyers and a very ugly T-Shirt (it don`t have opera logo =O, only a very small logo in T-Shirt´s sleeve)

At least you got that. It be more than I got.

2 winners will be announced every tuesday, based on widgets for the previous week.

Best of luck!


gcampos: What TShirt did you get? could you tell me about it, I'll make sure we dont send that one out anymore :-p

When you use "iGoogle" there's a game called "Color junction", somebody should have to make a color junction game widget... I'd love it ^_^

gcampos: sorry you don't like the shirt you previously received.

Some people really like it, but it's difficult to find a design that everyone loves. (i.e. some people want a more prominent Opera logo and/or slogan; others prefer a shirt that is not so explicitly corporate)

That said, we're coming up with new shirt designs all the time. We're trying hard to make shirts that you guys will love to wear.

I'm starting to worry about the future of this competition looking at the new widgets page...nothing changed and it's Wednesday and yet no winners and no new widgets.

shadowk: Update is coming today! It just took a little longer than first expected.

Best of luck!

We will be announcing the winners on the Prizes blog over here: http://my.opera.com/prizes/

Good Luck For All The Competitors

Can someone please develop a Sirius Internet Radio widget for Opera?

There is a Yahoo Widget for it, but it won’t work on my Archos 605 WiFi.
Here is a link so you can see what I’m talking about:
http://widgets.yahoo.com/widgets/sirius-satellite-tuner

It would be a real winner because it would make the Archos 605 Personal Media Player capable of streaming commercial-free radio (for people who already have an account with Sirius).

So you know up front, I think this could be quite a challenge because the normal online Sirius Player doesn't support the Opera web browser.

Please! Please!! Please!!!

great! now if I can just figure out how to write a widget. Oh and how to write it from my mobile . . .

Merry Christmas!

they should built a Adblock-lile widget for opera..

Widgets do not integrate with the browser in that way.

Opera can already block content, by the way. Right-click on a page and choose "Block content".

Hi !!! I am new member, and I am french. I don't speak english very very well but I am very interested to participate to this competition and win gifts,please how to do ? Give me more informations...I strongly hope to receive a good reply. Thank you forward.

Here is a link on how to make a widget. http://dev.opera.com/articles/view/your-first-widget/

Another way is to download a widget (secondary click, and then "save target as"), so you can look how a widget is structured.

Hey people...I see that widget forums are not so active so I gave up asking it there...

Could someone make a widget that will generate HTML codes, but for this:

Picture link (picture that links to somewhere) - I always forget how and I need to go and check on some website
Regular link (<a href="http..."...</a)

Mostly for that. Just basic HTML generator, for users with blogs, websites, etc., who are not so skilled with codes...


I looove widgets! I hope we'll get great new bunch from this contest!

@ tinhbuondoi Yes, but it blocks whole page! I want to block just the advertisment (for example) not all.
I'd love to have option like Mozzila's AdBlocker. You can block image and object. And the page looks just fine.

Btw, does anyone know a good page where it's described how to install user scripts in Opera? I'm having problems with it...I need options like Stylish and Greasemonkey on Opera...

I do love Opera, but I really miss some things...

THat is what he said. It blocks the advertiser and/or images. And the page looks fine. Check my page links (http://my.opera.com/yeeliberto/links), you will see how to use scripts n Opera, (like the spellchecker).

Ok, I tried again, thinking, I might have done something wrong...i went to Deviant ART and right-clicked on their add, clicked Block Content, then, I chose Done aand...nothing. Reloaded, nothing again. Soooo, am I doing something wrong or what? And AdBlocker has option, 'Block Object' and 'Block Image', so you can pick...

Thanks for the link on User scripts.

go again to block content, and click again to show it again. Hold shift the click so only that picture/add will dessapear.

hi!
