I remembered the last time I was there and needed something.
It was a quick hack, but can be very easily be expanded upon with time.
2) The read books (or text) - I hope there was a way to configure the black background and change it to someting easier on the eyes.
3) The drawing mode would allow some way to choose pencil style (thickness)
4) The Map function (in options) was instead on the first screen of buttons instead of under the 2nd set of buttons.
5) The stars view also showed some galaxies passing by - I could just stare at that all day long and ponder the vastness and enormity of 'liqbase' :-)
One quick question - like I saw the demo video - I cant seemt o kinetic scroll the screen in any way - how are you guys doing it - did I miss something ?
just add more, or make the ones you have larger (in graffiti view)
But this is a great toolbase and I hope these developements do get absorbed and assimilated into the Maemo base and become a part of the Maemo interface maybe (like the kinetic for anything which is larger tahn the screen size (like maps, books, text etc).
yes, its a great start and is certainly helping me to discover just what works and what doesnt on a touch device

I mistakenly thought I had got 0.1.5 into extras-devel... turns out I hadn't..
Anyway, its now there and after positive reports throughout today from people getting it off the website I have pushed it up and also promoted it to extras.
further changes will take more time and extra testing.
main differences from the last version.
camera works nicely and saves pictures to the correct location within the ~/.liqbase/sketches folder amongst the sketches themselves (with .png filenames)
you can view recent pictures in what was the test area.
you can also take a screenshot at any time and of any location within liqbase by pressing the fullscreen button.
I will expand on these features and expect to integrate the camera images directly into the sketch graffiti wall.
People have been asking me to allow creation of tweets, this is in progress at the moment and will be displayed inline with sketches and pictures in the graffiti wall.
I need some help in both coding and on the server side, but hope to allow full internet syncing and transfer of your data to liqbase.net and other services as we see fit (flickr/twitter etc).

Got it.
Promote that baby!
(Internet syncing sounds like so much wishful thinking. That... That... That... would rock my socks. Yeah.)

heh Aisu, you found it!!!
You can technically do the same with any named button
I haven't created the interface around it, but it will store every variation you put in there.
I'll clean it up the next time I go in and complete some of the bits.

sadly not in this version, however all the styles are centralized, so I'll make sure it adapts to a style file if specified.
amazing

heh Thesandlord,
simple part is the easter egg, its built into the program 0.1.5
Aisu has found my secret backdoor to the menu background image
/usr/share/liqbase/menu_back_400_240.jpg
Aisu, I would be careful actually with that.
put an enhancement request on the garage page asking for user definable backgrounds and styles and link to here.
I will ensure when loading images and stuff I look at the users ~/.liqbase folder (or some subfolder) before trying the core variations.

I have been reading about liqbase for a long time but only installed yesterday - after I saw it was in the extras-devel.
While its a great demo - there are some things I really could use this for ...
1) The Map demo feature - could we have some way to change the maps and maybe load a new one instead of the Berlin map
(in particular I would like this map for my usage)
2) The read books (or text) - I hope there was a way to configure the black background and change it to someting easier on the eyes.
3) The drawing mode would allow some way to choose pencil style (thickness)
4) The Map function (in options) was instead on the first screen of buttons instead of under the 2nd set of buttons.
5) The stars view also showed some galaxies passing by - I could just stare at that all day long and ponder the vastness and enormity of 'liqbase' :-)
