    Red face Bioshock Countdown Widget

    I made a Bioshock Countdown dashboard widget for those running OSX.
    Yes, I know the background isn't perfect, but that's something to shoot for in v2.

    You can download it here. Let me know what you think.

    Love it! Nice to see some OSX love around here...with Bioshock being a PC/xbox only game and all

    I don't see anything wrong with the backround.....

    Great work! I was hoping someone would do something like this. I never spent the time figuring out how to make widgets. Many thanks!

    There is, and it takes some extra noodling in the console to enable, but it's easy. Here is a quick guide: http://www.macosxhints.com/article.p...50422172929402

    In OSX, widgets are at their base .html pages.
    You can look at the source of any widget by right clicking on the widget and selecting "Show Package Contents" from the drop-down menu.
    If you are interested in making your own, I would suggest reading Apple's overview and practice with their tutorials. http://developer.apple.com/macosx/dashboard.html
