Awesome as always.
Hey master of the Desktop Visualiser Widget, what did you think of my 'Circular Widgets' in post 2552?
(Since I have you to thank for all the aggravation I incurred getting them just right :) )
The "Circular Widgets" is a good concept. It allows for a lot of options for selections while not hogging desktop space. Did you just put a few small transparent Desktop Visualizer widgets for each selection along the rim? Must have been a pain to line that up!
But, what does the center image of this circle link to...?

I suppose what I should have said 'it takes me to my wife's cell number' :D

It has been replaced by something more practical :) - see below
ie the home screen now looks like one of the other seven screens.

The small desktop transparent widgets along the rim are actually placed either immediately above / below the outer circle or to the left / right of the circle.
The space surrounding the circle ie not in the circle rim itself, was enough to accomodate this.
Pressing on these then does not interfere at all with the inner circle shortcuts.

I wish I could say that it sounds like fun figuring that out... but I know it's not. Still, good work on the circle widgets.

Can't wait to see what you come up with next. (I know it won't take long... you can't be stopped!)
