Has anybody done a fixtures screen saver yet?

cheers, supertyke normally does em a think.

 

No doubt in a week or so fixtures should reflect our token couple of games on Sky at different times or dates. Also might wanna see which players are here ie Macken before putting on likes of Anderson and JCR on any wallpaper Wouldn't be surprised if first game put back to Sunday lunchtime kick-off. Maybe Forest home/away or Scnuthorpe away be put on Monday.

 

thought bbc had matches this season

 

Sky still have some, I think. nt

 

They've got 10

But cannot show same team more then twice.</p>

Sky have about 40

Changes etc is why I did the fixtures widget this time last year.

Adds the fixtures to your desktop whatever the wallpaper. Needs display resolution of 1024x768 or greater. Reads the info off the main site so updates when fixtures change and displays result after matches are played.

Instructions:

1. If you don't have the Yahoo! widgets framework installed, get it here: http://widgets.yahoo.com/download/

It comes with a selection of widgets which it will cover your desktop in. Right click on and close these (or at least the ones you don't want). It also comes with a Dock at the right of the screen for managing widgets. Presuming you don't want this (unless you run zillions of widgets I can't see the point), right click on the cog icon in your tray by the clock on your taskbar. Choose "Close dock". Your desktop should now look how it did before you installed Yahoo Widgets.

2. Download the fixtures widget from here http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?ntmtjihnwtl
Open the file and voila! the live, auto-updating fixture list should appear on your desktop. Grab the widget with a left mouse click and position where you want it.

PS If anyone is still using this widget from last year can someone just confirm it upgraded to this seasons fixtures without hitch. This is a Windows widget and I'm on Linux now so I don't actually use this one any more.

 

ill make one soon

 

OK Here goes.

Been working on this since I last posted at 7ish. You'd better all use it now. [img=http://nickspage.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/fixtures.gif]

Cheers, quite a useful tool, why does it say M'boro at home is 19:45, isn't this a 15:00??

 

RE: OK Here goes.

Tony Hart eat your heart out

 

Does anyone have a way of importing them into Lotus Notes calendar? nt

 

Not yet

Don't use it so don't know. But for the last few years these lot have done a fixutre list for office applications but as yet it still liset 08/09 Keep an eye on it over the next few weeks. Hopefully it will update soon. http://www.addadate.com/Barnsley/index.html

 

It read whatever the official site says on startup

Listed as 19:45 on the main site and so if it's wrong, when they correct the official site, the widget will display the correction from next boot.

 

Using it

Genius.
