I someone still 'celebrating' New Years? Or is that what a hangover does to a Qwert keyboard?
:)
I have to agree too. Anyway has anyone though abour min-progranma to gi withj KidOS? So, if gheir arents restrict access to workjd, openoffice,office, etc-in kid odthey could have a mini-version of Word for example, and a mini-paint/drawing style app.

I think you are asking about programs to run with it. That is the point any program on the computer the parents can have work with it. The only added things we need are the email/messanger/browser applications that will be KidOS specific.
I will vote 'YES'-what is the unoffical kidops vote allabout?.Quote:

You'll have to go back and see what was being discussed at the time. I think it was in regards to standards for coding constants.Quote:

But it mayhave already been solved.
Well, how long umtil we get to woek on the KidOS coding part? I bet everyone is eager to starting coding.
I think Osnr is working on a login screen. Other than that there really isn't anything. Maybe what we need to do is build a list of what we want included, prioritize it, and break it out, giving different pieces to different people.Quote:

I'm gonna be offline for the next few days. Family crisis in the next state over means I have to take off. Sheesh.... will the drama never end? anyways, I will try to keep up and check when I can, but I don't know what kind of i-net access I'll be able to get. At any rate, the drive may give me the opportunity to build some sort of standards doc.Quote:

hope everything is ok gnome.
I have plenty of code that could be useful for KidOS-I will look throuh my vb files, and if there is sopmething appropiate, Iwill upload it somewhere-like at sourceforge for you all to look and use. I can license my browser (based on the ms ie control) for KidOS-it will bee need to be heavily customised for kidos-just PM me if you have anny enires for licensing my code (that is for blindlozard and rechgnome only they're leaders at the kidos page at SF). NOTE: I will be away from nextb Thuersday, axI'm going to Dubbo,NSW with my mother-I provbably won't be basck until the following Thurs/Friday after the 9th. So, any PM'sshould be all dernt before next Wednesaday.
No, no, no. PLEASE. That code is heavily un-indented, commentless, has control names like Label1, and is basically the opposite of the Microsoft recommended coding conventions.
Sorry for the few-hour absence - my cable connection is a bit weak for some reason.
aafuss I tell you what. Why don't you build a new browser. Here is what it needs. Have the ie control take up most of the window. Make it as wide as the form, but sightly smaller. Leave some room at the top for navigation. No need for file | edit |window menus at the top. Have a forward | back | stop | refresh | home buttons on a toolbar at the top. Just use picture boxes for now (they will have icons in them later) Under that toolbar make another toolbar. This will have icons for all the sites they can go to. Here is the fun part. When the icons are going to run off the screen, have a large arrow button that scrolls right. Also, have an arrow on the left that scrolls left. Keep in mind different screen resolutions. Also remember they can have 0 to infinite number of sites here.
Chew on that for a while, should keep you busy. Then when you are done, we can suggest changes if any are needed.
Hey Onsr any progess on the login screen?
By the way:
Follow the MS recommended coding conventions. That will keep you a bit buisier :D
Hows ius the login system going along,Omar?
The browser: try to acquire the source code for WSIE (I am trying do that at the moment)http://www.twk.2ya.com (email is son the sites downloads section) -to customise for KidOS-could saves heaps of time?
No, it won't. We need to redesign the UI for kidness anyway.
BTW I've found a place for VB questions to move over to:
http://www.galahtech.com/forums/index.php?s=
(thanks to all the GalahTech sig members here)
Perhaps we could make use of our Sourceforge forums?
Actually, if yiou'd emailthe uthor for the sources-then you can customize to make irt kid friendly. And, I aggreep-we should use our SF forums at the kidos project pages.
NO, I mean it would be close to a total rewrite if we cutomized it.
Yes. We can ask VB questions at http://galahtech.com/ :D
I don't think that the author of WSIE doesn't \want it with other apps. Anyway,any good examples for the KidOS web browser?
Just make a new browser with the IE control. There are a billion tutorials online. You can put one together in about an hour. Don't over complicate things by bringing in other peoples code. Just write it.
I use MicroAngelo for icon building.
If you are still at a loss look on IconBazzar website to find some finished icons. There are some that would be functional for a kids program.
well we haven't decided if we want to go the Icon format yet, or just use .gif's or something that appear as icons.
Does galahtech.com have a Project Communication Area? If it does, I do think we should move there.
I will ask for one. VBForums is getting too commercial. Bring your VBForums post count too :D
Yeah, I think I will flame this site first, then bring the count over
gonna
aafuss, techgnome, and I have already jumped over. Got an account yet?

You do understand that flaming Forum Feedback doesn't get your post count increased right?
