in ubuntu they just connect to a weather site and give the info there it shouldnt be to hard to get it working.

i think there should be graphical levels for later and the highest level has a scripting engine you can use for anything and a few premade ones while the lowest setting is for like my old laptop ;)

Zamadatix asked a question in BumpTop on October 24, 2008 19:52:

will bumptop be free with its official release?

this isnt going to turn into a real desktop scam is it?

whats the bumptop vip team? (im looking to get more involved in this program)

Zamadatix replied on October 24, 2008 18:53 to the idea "Custom icon/sticky note size" in BumpTop:

yeah but that doesnt do anything about custom sizes, you still get a VERY chop-
pped
up no-
te

maybe if they made it so instead of jumping sizes icons went up or down in size by the pixel.

sometimes cache randomly goes to 900mb and never clears even if i exit (i only have 512mb (truly 384) of ram so that really sucks... but today i opened bumptop and im getting a average of 50 fps, ill tell if it slows down and what i was doing if it happens again (i run on a VERY stripped version of xp so ill be able to tell)

i have only the default picture on the wall all the settings to low as they go and 1 row of icons on my normal desktop on xp yet my ram is still 400 higher (if only my computer was the stock market) but in my vista machine it runs only 100 higher on the highest settings for graphics available.

also in beta 12 no my 64 bit computer it ran without a hitch but in beta 14 im experiencing EXTREME lag and jsut leave it closed because it slowed things down so much.

any idea whats up?

update: couldn't you just use the hard drive to cache all the images since they arnt being used much when a window is in front of them (which is most of the time)? i mean 400 mb is an awful lot on my machine with 512mb ram... especially since nothing in the scene is changing.

Zamadatix replied on October 22, 2008 19:07 to the idea "Custom icon/sticky note size" in BumpTop:

that an sticky notes that stick to where they are unless you drag them (they don't move when icons bounce into the, because they are sticky...)

the little button that says sign up, though it may have been just a 1 in a million chance that i got my invite just as i retried. (that would be AWESOME)

Zamadatix replied on October 22, 2008 19:00 to the problem "Cannot register beta, problem with internet." in BumpTop:

i noticed when i run bump top 400mb of my ram disappears, doe sit really use that much ram or is this another problem? (before it was using 200 mb total)

yep works great, thank you very much. if you need any other testing with 64 bit systems i'm willing to do it (i spend a lot of time programming but not as much as you guys do :P)
