New Calendar Skin
Alright, I've decided to create the default skin for Desktop Calendar. Here it is.
Desktop Calendar Screenshots
I am getting pretty excited about the release of Desktop Calendar, which has made me want to post some screens.
The iCal Skin. This is my best looking skin so far, and the only one that I've put any real effort into.
This screen is me dragging in a new calendar. The screen doesn't capture the cursor, but it's there. AS you can see i've taken the approach of Dashboard. I've tried to create a feel users are familiar with.
This is the default skin that the Calendar morphs into when you drag the Calendar onto the drop zone. The default skin will definitely change for the final release as this one in reality is pretty terrible. Though, the dog is adorable.
So, still a lot of work to be done, issues to resolve, stay tuned.
Desktop Calendar Update
A lot has happened with Desktop Calendar since I last wrote. I've now included a skin editor for the monthly calendar. A user has the ability to personalize the calendar to look any way they wish.
I do plan on creating skin editors for the other calendar types too. However that may have to wait till version 1.x.
Desktop calendar now uses core animation. The CPU load is now extremely marginal.
I believe I am still on target for a December 1st release.
Following the release I plan on expanding the Gosstech website. I will implement a Skins section where users may upload and download calendar skins.
I am currently working on a new method of adding calendars within the app. I've tried to mimic the functionality found in Dashboard to create some consistency. I'll provide some screenshots soon.
