Lightquick Web Design - High Quality, Low Cost

Have just submitted the Yahoo Steampunk CPU/GPU Thermometer Widget to web locations that distribute widgets. The primary site is Yahoo widgets of course, the second is Widgipedia. Widgipedia is a gallery for all sorts of widgets, not just Yahoo ones but google widgets, windows widgets, opera widgets &c.

The locations for the widgets are:

I have posted the Steampunk CPU/GPU Thermometer Widget on widgipedia but
not yet on Yahoo widgets as I do not feel that the widget is yet
complete enough for wider distribution. I just want to get it out into
the wide-world in smaller numbers as a trial in order to get some feedback. The widget
works perfectly on my laptop but does have a problem on another desktop.

The bug that was found was that single-digit temperatures are currently misinterpreted.
This low temperature situation will seldom actually occur as PC temperatures are
consistently higher than 9c. It is only when a faulty sensor gives temperatures less than
9c that the problem manifests itself.

Remaining tasks to complete the thermometers
================================

Alarm clapper state to be saved to preferences
Alarm slider voffset values to be saved to preferences
Graphical bug, selecting new sensor sometimes causes the thermometer index to be overwritten
Sort out the text on the drop down help
Draw the chart
Ensure "HM Stationers" text moves
Add the resized platen to the widget and adjust all the hoffsets
Change the drop down canvas to work in steps with noises &c
Add some additional noises to the printer movement.

Check the cpu/gpu temperatures can be extracted from hardware with differently identified sensors
Sort out the problem with sensor values less than 10c being incorrectly extracted as just c
In XP - identify the sensors using the Speedfan cfg files and select the appropriate sensor
In NT6 - identify the sensors using a damn good guess.
use first sensor as the GPU sensor
if last sensor reads 0c then dead sensor, use previous sensor
if last sensor has a reading then use it as a cpu sensor

resizing bug causes platen to be in the wrong place
resizing bug causes warm/hot alarm sliders to be in the wrong place
resizing bug means hot alarm sliders cannot be lowered
resizing bug means sampling interval is incorrect
Add Mac OS/X temperature code ( an unknown quantity this ) - partly done but untested
