Good work
well 'started' theme support in so far as i have a place to control it from. but i've not figured out any of the workings.
still wondering if there is any better/faster way to render the tweets. if so it would change anything i do theme wise.

If Witter isn't working for you, eg crashes/doesn't start, gives errors etc etc. Please run it from x-term using:
run-standalone.sh python2.5 /opt/witter/witter.py
This will generate diagnostic output. Without this I cannot help you.

i think gtk and cairo are just not fast enough from python. either that or i have a lot of badly performing code (entirely possible)
wondering if can get some sensible performance tests going.

Focusing on rendering the tweets faster I do think is a good move, that and making the scrolling smoother.
Still would love to see avatars...nudge nudge

Rather than themes, make them go with the theme of the cellphone. This is FeedingIt listing, and I have the marina theme installed, looks quite smooth doesn't it.
I think its better witter synergizes with the cellphone theme than create its own theming concept.
again, an idea, love the software. keep up the good work
EDIT: avatars and smoother scrolling if you can

the colour preferences are supposed to be saved rather than discarded. there are values set in the /home/user/.witter file.
i'd be interested in the output fm running witter at commandline if you find it's not storing your colour preferences.

preferences now updated. if you have a bit.ly account and api key you can get url shortening via the main menu.
at the moment any bit.ly urls are automatically expanded. but i'm not sure whether i want to stick with that feature or not.
