- Log file plotting on map and animated "playback". The Geologger will never clip corners, and will perfectly follow loopy highway ramps. You can now also upload your log-files to the desktop website.

Splash Screen Randomizer v0.7.5

Description:
Splash Screen Randomizer is a simple tool that launches in the background at startup and swaps out the Welcome Splash screen with a random splash screen from a folder that can be defined by you.

How To Use
When you install Splash Screen Randomizer It will create a folder in \My Documents\Splashes (You can change this folder after install if you want) Depending on which version you download you may have 1 splash screen or 13 in your splashes folder. The normal version only includes the splash screen that I released a while back called Merlin XP(which accounts for 200KB of the cab size). While the other has one of nuthin's splash screens and a whole bunch of black_shadow69's.

You can change the Splashes directory by launching "SplScrnRndStg" From the Programs menu. At this point you can change the settings manually by editing the .xml file in the "Program Files\SplashScreenRandomizer" Folder.

Quirks or Issues
* The current Welcome splash screen is replaced(instead of backed up) when the program first runs
* The assembly incorrectly show 1.0 actual version is 0.7.5

Future Thoughts(Feel Free to add your own)
Future builds(after 0.7.5) will automatically back up your current splash screen. Until then be sure to back up your current splash screen if you want to keep it(you can drop it in the splashes folder to keep it in rotation)

I'll be adding the ability to swap to a specific splash screen and to turn off randomization the real 1.0 build(assembly states 1.0 but is actually 0.7.5). Until then you can force it to use just one by only having one file in the directory or removing the shortcut from startup(you can still run it manually).
If any one else can think of any other basic splash screen automation that would be handy to include here let me know.

ShantzTodayChanger v1.53

Description:
This is a little tool for your Windows Mobile based phones (Compatible with WM5/WM6 but not WM2003) which will cycle ur today background or theme after a set interval of time. It has a lot of features and options that you can discover by reading the text below. And you can even use this options to achieve something other than changing wallpapers as well but that depends on your imagination.

Usage:
1. Make a folder on ur device (preferably not on storage card.) and extract all the files (mainly ShantzTodayChanger.exe, TdyChangerCfg.exe, gsgetfile.dll (might not be visible to u depending on ur explorer settings) and Readme.htm) to this folder.
2. IMP: Do not rename any files.
3. Run the TdyChangerCfg.exe.
4. Set options through the dialog that opens and press apply button (Pressing the native WM OK button will discard all your changes)
5. Options:
i)Choose image type (.gif\.jpg\.png) or theme(.tsk) to be cycled.
ii)If the input files (images or themes) are not in the folder where exes are kept, then you can check the box (underneath the .gif option) and give the “FULL and ABSOLUTE” path of where the files are kept. You can either input the path thru keyboard or choose it graphically by pressing the button (…) next to it.
iii)If you want to run a file after every cycle interval, check the corresponding box and provide the “FULL and ABSOLUTE” path of the file to be run. You can either input the path thru keyboard or choose it graphically by pressing the button (…) next to it.
iv) If you want some files to be avoided during cycling, put a file mask. The program will look for this mask to appear anywhere in the name of the files and will avoid it if found. (Wildcards are not supported. Choose time option has to be checked for this to work)
v) Choose the period for which mask option has to be used. If you choose a time period and leave mask as empty, then during that time no cycling will be done. If you want to avoid some files all the time, then time period should be chosen to cover all 24 hrs of the day.
vi)enter the desired interval between cycling of images\themes.
vii)If you choose a period for the mask, another check box (Consider mask period for exe also) will be enabled. Checking this box will mean that the specified exe will be run only if an image\theme is changed during that cycle. If you dont check this, then exe will be run after every cycle even if there is no change in the image\theme.
6. When you want to stop the cycling, press “STOP Cycling” button.

Additional Notes:
1. The GUI for configuration has not been optimized for square screen devices, so you need to make some guesswork and use hardware keyboard for input but the changer program itself will run fine.
2. Doesnt have to be running constantly. So saves resources when not active.
3. Survives soft resets as well.
4. Even takes care of the situation if your phone is off when the time to cycle is reached. Will cycle as soon as ur phone comes back on in this situation.

Planned Updates:
i) Suggestions invited. I have a lot of updates in mind but will incorporate those only which are requested by you.

Known Issues:
i) If the mask option is selected, then in a very particular situation, the app will miss a cycle.
This can be taken care of but not in my priority list because this can be fixed only by rewriting the complete cycling code which is quite a bit. So, will fix it if I get some time from my other projects.
ii) If after maknig the configuration, you see the screen flash for a second at the right times, but the backfround doesn’t change, then do this:
- Go to : Settings…today….appearance
- un-check “Use this picture as background”
- start the program using “startTodayChanger.lnk” or TdyChangerCfg (Apply button)
(Thnx to CWKJ for reporting this bug and fix, and to eric for reminding me about it)

End Note:
Like every software, this one is also bound to have bugs, please report it asap.
Though ShantzTodayChanger does not run continuously but sometimes some apps that close all processes automatically (like SPB backup) might clash in schedule with ShantzTodayChanger and close it when it starts to run. In such a case (which is quite unlikely), the app might not be able to set a notification for next cycle, so if u face this situation, then run the config again.

moGo beta v.0.4

Description:
The new version of moGo no longer needs the freestyl server.

At the moment this most likely will not mean to much to you guys but it means moGo is no longer restricted to the freestyl features. The new server pushes data to moGo to save on power as previously moGo had to ask the server to see if there where changes at regular intervals.

Features:
Finger friendly application launcher
Quick dial of favourite friends
Highly configurable menus and menu items
Missed call/sms/email notifications
Slide to quick launch(needs to be set in sets.txt)
Vibrate on touch(needs to be set in sets.txt, also probably not recommended)

How to use:
download and unzip the .CAB file
Transfer moGoInstall.CAB file to phone then click file to install.
INSTALL ONTO DEVICE!
Look in programs and run mogo.


Config:
There is still no easy config app but you can delve into the settings by editing the sets.txt file. In this file are a lot of setting values where you can change the wallpaper, icons and the menu items. After editing the sets.txt file you will need to re launch moGo.

Change wallpaper
wall=wallpapers/01.jpg -- after the = sign put the location of your own wallpaper

Change icons
menuIcon1=Phone.png -- change Phone.png to the icon you want to use. You can find icons in the icons folder.

Change menu Items
m1_iName1=Contacts -- This is the menu item title
m1_iDesc1=See a list of your conacts -- A small description
m1_iIcon1=Contacts.png -- The icon of the menu item
m1_iType1=launch -- Launch type. Can be: launch,web,call
m1_iAction1=\Windows\addrbook.lnk -- Depending on the launch type. Either location of app, web address or phone number

Multiple menus
It is possible to add your own menu. You can currently have up to 4 menus per button.

m1_Menus=3 -- This needs to be set to the correct number of menus you want.

The following would create a third menu for the phone button. Having m111 means it is the 3rd menu. m1111 would be the forth.

&m111_Style=big&m111_Ani=fromB&
&m111_iName1=Friend 5&m111_iDesc1=Ring 01234567890&m111_iIcon1=Contacts.png&m111_iType1=c all&m111_iAction1=01234567890&
&m111_iName2=Friend 6&m111_iDesc2=Ring 01234567890&m111_iIcon2=Contacts.png&m111_iType2=c all&m111_iAction2=01234567890&
&m111_iName3=Friend 7&m111_iDesc3=Ring 01234567890&m111_iIcon3=Contacts.png&m111_iType3=c all&m111_iAction3=01234567890&
&m111_iName4=Friend 8&m111_iDesc4=Ring 01234567890&m111_iIcon4=Contacts.png&m111_iType4=c all&m111_iAction4=01234567890&

&m111_Style=big -- means it is using the 4 big menu items style. Setting it to grid would make it use a 9 item grid menu. If using the grid you will need to add more items to the menu.

&m111_Ani=fromB -- This means the menu animation will slide from the bottom. Other options are "fromU" is slide from the top, "fromL", slide in from the left and "fromR", slide in from the right.

Slide to quick launch
&slideLeft_iType=none&slideLeft_iAction=\Windows\f explore.exe&slideLeft_iIcon=FileExplorer.png&

&slideLeft_iType=none -- This means the slide to launch is off. Set it to "launch" and add the correct location to launch an application like a locker program for example. You can set an icon for it. You could also set it to ring someone by using the iType=call setting.

- .Net compact 2.0
- Flashlite 2.1
