Homer Simpson on your desktop!

[Slash]

Hello all!!

Just thought I'd post a quick preview of a little project I've been working on over the last week and which will hopefully be released in the next few days for graphics cards owning Amiga users.

Homer is compatible with AmigaOS3.9 and AmigaOS4.0beta, he should also function without problems on MorphOS, although this isn't tested.

Homer doesn't actually do anything, he's there for a bit of amusment on your desktop, i.e. he's very similar to the original Homer which is on Aminet now, except this version looks quite a bit nicer and has a few more (250+) frames of animation.

In this initial release Homer will stand nodding his head making comments, and be fully animated shouting Doh, going crazy and generally being happy with a few WooHoo's!

I don't see why not, it should work, maybe a bit slow if you use the transparent feature.

The current transparent solution is a quick slow implementation, I will start on improving that bit up as soon as the initial version is out.

@All

I should also mention Homer has an AREXX port, for example when you get a new mail in YAM you could have Homer shout Woohoo.

Like this?

Such as? Any ideas?  :-?

I'm also currently working on two other project for AmigaOS4, a MUI development IDE and an Instant Messenger to talk to MSN and AOL.

I'm fully worked out at the minute, so no time for anything else just yet   :-)

As soon as I can finish him :-) Hopefully this weekend.
