After the success on the Troll Thumping Day Suite some members of the Mother Thumpers are coming together to create the "Happy Birthday Suit(e)".I envision this suite centered around a DX gadget that counts down to your birthday. On your birthday the gadget will prompt you to download the most recent incarnation of the suite components so for your special day, your desktop will celebrate with you.At this point we have some components assigned to artists but this is a collaborative project and welcome input and assistance from everyone. Please jump in and help out if you'd like.WB - theAVMAN - complete, uploadedVista Logon - RickJF - complete, uploadedDream - Carguy - complete, uploadedTabbed Docks - mommaTee - complete, uploadedZoomer Docks - mommaTee - complete, uploadedXP Logon - RickJF, sAARge - complete, uploadedWinamp - TheD2JBug - complete, uploadedAvatar - Hog56 - complete, uploadedSoundPackage - Robjk - complete, uploadedDX Birthday game - Haptork - complete, uploadedDX Clock - theAVMAN - complete, uploadedDock icons - RickJF - complete, uploadedRightClick - Lantec - complete, uploadedRainlendar - 2of3 - complete, uploadedBootskin - RickJP - complete, uploadedIconPackage - MommaTee - complete, testingSidebar - Mike - complete, uploadedXion - alibear123 - complete, uploadedCursor - sAARge - complete, uploadedSysmetrix - Lantec - pending - drafts posted in threadDX Countdown Widget - theAVMAN, milksamaDX Weather - puterdudejim - complete, uploadedDX Calendar - puterdudejim - complete, uploadedLaunch date: Unknown at this point(Happy Birthday Karma and Snowy! - Original date May 6th, 2008)Please see the link below for the original suggestion.
In regards to the clock widget... very interesting development. I had no idea what Winky sounded like until now Nice work on that, btw
If need be, you could throw in some cake shrapnel that I could give some random velocity vectors.

I think having something like that, where it opens a dialog and gives you some options about what to download might be interesting. I could have it initiate a search and parse out the results to include direct links to each of the themes.
Having it download them automatically would definitely be doable I think, but might become more complicated if there is a download limiter in effect because the user is not a current subscriber/customer. I was thinking of something like what ThemeManager would do though, where there could be multiple components for a suite not all downloaded, then you could pick and choose what you wanted to download and apply.
There are many great features available to you once you register, including:
