Skin I'm working on.

[Bill DeWitt]

I just thought I would show off what I've got so far. Need to clean up the transparency mask and improve the buttons a little. It's meant to be used with the freeware clock by Loris Bognanni (gljakal.com).

It's come to puns now has it? [}:)]

Thanks Art, Glad you like it. But I wonder, do other folks use the buttons as seldom as I do? I never use the "Menu" or "Close" buttons, and rarely turn off the mike now that I have "Respond Only By Name". I mostly just put her over on the other monitor and leave her running.

So I was thinking about leaving a couple buttons off the next version to make it a little cleaner. Maybe just Mike and Minimize? Or do you think that would make it unhandy for others?

Bill,

I think the Menu, X (close/exit) and - (minimize) are about
it for me personally.
Some like swapping the background but I guess it's a matter
or personal preference.

Rarely do I ever use the mike button since most of my training
is done through typing and mistakes are kept to a minimum.

Voice Rec, while a nice feature, is still prone to a lot of
errors and like they say, GIGO.

Just my take and $.02.

PS:
What happens to the girl when one closes the watch lid or is it not representative of the old pocket watches or jewelry box dancers?
Time out!

 That was my intention. Unfortunately you cannot shut the lid. The clock is a separate program on the web page I mentioned above.

 Do you know if one can use animated gifs in the skin? I guess I should just try and see.

  Leave it to me to have a different opinion, I'd like to add a zoom in and a zoom out button for use with fullbody girl. Also move her up, down and left and right. Simpler than using trigger words and Haptek commands.  
  I do like the design you've made, rather unique.

No need to post stuff if everyone has the same opinion!

I realized that I don't use the buttons because I keep her on a separate monitor, and I am usually busy with my mouse on the main screen. So my next version includes the buttons, but I still have problems with the background of the input box (see image).

Thank you, I am starting to get somewhere with it I think...
