OK then, I edited wiki to add URPO and KitchenAlert in the beginner contest

PM sent to Kojacker with details for my two entries:

Entry 1: Classic Cam
--------------------
Classic Cam is a camera app that automatically "develops" photos to give them
a "retro" look, much the same as those old 70's prints you have in your photo album.

The application replicates the look of the back of an instamatic camera (with the
addition of a not-so-retro LCD preview panel!) and uses the shutter button to
take photos. When a photo is taken, a number of different configurable filters are
applied automatically to the photo to create a photo that looks like an old print.

The application is fully functional but is a work-in-progress and will continue
to be developed based on user feedback and comments

Available in the extras-devel repository. Further details in this thread: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=53516

Entry 2: Classic Print
----------------------
Classic Print allows you to load any photo image then apply and tweak settings to
give the photos a classic retro look, like those 1970's prints you have in your photo
album.

Based on the same image processing engine as Classic Cam, this application allow
you to take existing photos and apply a retro print style to them. The application
allows you to tweak all the parameters of the filters and save presets of your
favourite settings.

Available in the extras repository. Further details in this thread: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=56398

Does anybody know anything about Ianaré and his Moon Phase Widget?

I can't seem to find anything about it anywhere other than it's name on the comp wiki page. Ive pm'd him for more details on it and to see if it's still being entered into the competition. At the moment I have an entry on the wiki but absolutely nothing else to go on, not even a screenshot or a description :(

Could someone please double check for me that I haven't missed anything in a repository somewhere? I dont want to lose anyone from the comp and I'll gather details on their behalf, but I cant find anything on this one.. yet. I guess it's possible the project may be dead and it hasn't been taken off the wiki..

HI,

I finally fixed one strange and annoying bug in my program
for this competition (scout). The current version is
0.0.5 my new version is 0.0.6 and uploaded to the extras-devel
autobuilder. But the build failed for the i386 target.
The armel target succeed but it isn't available from the
repository as long as i386 target doesn't succeed.
I hope I can use the 0.0.6 version as my submission for the
competition.

regards
nicolai

Hi Nicolai, sounds like a pretty annoying time you're having, Im sure we'll be able to use 0.0.6. Whatever version you enter, please make sure to highlight it and also it's important to say where the users can find and try it out.. please put those details in your entry post/PM to me :) Good luck with the build :)

It's just gone 11pm GMT.... 1 hour left!! :eek:

You mean like, from scratch, not just turning whatever I might come up with into bearable English? :eek:

Thanks so much, you probably don't know what a huge relief that is!

I'll wait with releasing V1.0 then. Finally managed to end my eternal struggle with localisation today, but it's most probably better to put a few days into cleaning up that battlefield part of the code before releasing it, anyway.

I don't smoke, can't stand neither coffee nor beer and nothing would ever get me to eat cold pizza - so I had to go with at least ONE programmer cliché, didn't I? :D

I wonder if there's any limit to post size on here... onwards we go.. :)
There is - hit it here... ;)


Btw, do you need any more information from me? Most of it can be pulled from the first post of the thread I linked to in the Wiki - but please let me know if anything is missing!

(Don't bother with the PayPal info - looking at the other entries you won't need that from me :D )
