Judi Smith has built an improved Gallery control for .Text.  Great job, Judi! 

I didn't like the appearance of the default image gallery. I wanted something a bit more symmetrical and with the titles under the picture - much like what was in the admin section for Edit Galleries. It turned out to be incredibly easy. You can download my version of this control and use in in almost any skin. I haven't found one that has done something with the image gallery yet. The change consists of two parts: 1) replace the GalleryThumbnailViewer.ascx in the skin that you are using and 2) edit the style.css for that skin to include the lines in the included .css file Download location: http://judijsmith.com/blogs/archive/2004/07/27/154.aspx

Looks like the guys over at Konfabulator have gotten a new version out the door – 1.7.1.  Konfabulator is one of the coolest Mac OS X applications I have ever seen – it allows you to include various types of functionality into “widgets” with which you can adorn your desktop for beautiful eye candy and downright wonderful utility.  Go to http://www.konfabulator.com to check it out…

Greetings registered users!
Konfabulator 1.7.1 is out the door and is a free upgrade that can be had, simply by going here:
http://www.konfabulator.com/downloads/

CONFIGURATION JOY
Want to configure Konsposé's hot key? Want to change Konsposé's background? Want to make your Widgets only show up in Konsposé?

Not a problem!

Konfabulator 1.7.1 allows you to do all those, and includes fixes for lots of user reported bugs and issues. With our new general preference dialog you can change the hot key combination used for activating Konsposé, and decide what the backdrop looks like. In addition, Widget to Widget you can now not only choose where it's going to sit or float on your desktop, but also choose if the Widget shows up only when you're in Konsposé. Good stuff.

AND MORE
Living in Finland? You're in luck! We now have a Finnish translation built into Konfabulator.

Are you a Widget developer? You'll be pleased to know that we've made a host of improvements to our text processing engine that will fix problems you've been having with the new Unicode text support and things like URL fetching and AppleScript.
