svetius: "jump to your device" -- shouldn't this go above the dropdown so no rollover
Hey I cannot quarrel with the man who brought Youtube embeds within 48 hours or initial request... (btw, am I the only one using it? ... wait, let me answer that: yes. But I like it, so thank you !)
That pair of "quick navigation to your phone" tools at top right has been really great. It's just that enroute to using the text box to type in "desire" I almost always rollover the dropdown which causes an obstruction to my desired objective.
You probably wrestled with this and have reasons for the way you did it. But just in the event you were really really smashed that night and really had no rationale whatsoever and just flipped a coin, are you open to trying to flip the two...
Another unsolicited usability comment in the spirit of improvement. The xda favicon is such a welcome change from the boring vBulletin v, but I find it hard to read.
Did you ever come across how they went about remaking the YouTube favicon to improve its readability? It sounded very esoteric by god it did the job... A reader submitted it -- and YouTube took her up on it, and adopted it:

About the drop down...in the forum redesign we're working on, you must click the drop down to get it to open.
About the fav icon...feel free to make one that is better than the current. All of us are quite pleased by the new icon. It's not perfect, but making a legible 16x16 graphic is very difficult.

Hello. This is my first app for the Windows 8.1 platform. It is a simple converter that converts between different units. It is designed for optimal use with tablets and generally touch screens.

Beautiful
This is just beautiful, all I'd ask is for the Data section to have Megabits as well

Thank you! Yes of course i will include megabits (and generally bits instead of only bytes). Also i will include numerical system conversion, conversions from and to decimal,hexadecimal,octal and binary The update will be probably posted at the store at Monday. I will update this post when it's available.
I any of the forum members have sugestions, please notify me and i'll put it in the app.
Thank you again!

hi, i know this has nothing to do with the app but is there any chance you could share that purple wallpaper? I absolutely love it and i've been trying to find one similar all day but to no avail. I'd really appreciate it if you could

The update 1.1.0.3 is available. It should download automatically in the next few hours. You may also do it maually from Store's settings.
Changelog:
-Added conversion between numeral systems
-Enabled number input right after selecting the "from" unit
-Added more units in "Data" and "Speed"
-New middle-size icon
-Various bugfixes
All of the above are changes that happened after user feedback. I appreciate it a lot. If you have any other suggestions, please let me know

I know that this app is designed for optimal use with tablets, but there is a little bug when you use two windows with windows 8.1
I hope you fix the bug
Great application! Thank you wery much!

I don't know if any of you remember the XDA Toolbar extension I made, but it's very old, very limited and only works on one previous XDA theme. You can see it here if you never saw it before...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1339825
I'm now working on a new extension that I'm naming XDA Plus, that will do the things that the toolbar used to do, but will also have a ton of other options. I'm nearly at the point where I'll be able to start testing the extension, but for now I'm looking for people with creative input of things that they'd like to see the extension do. Now this extension will not be performing magic tricks - I can only manipulate what's already there, not add major new features. So with that in mind I'm really only looking for people that have at least a basic understanding of what a forum like this can actually do.
I've started a social group so we can chat and you can post suggestions (and issues, once you have a beta version to play with). It's invite only so just post in here if you're interested in joining. Please don't just post "I wanna join teh club". If you do then you're not the right type of person. Give me some idea of why you'd be a good tester, or give me some good suggestions for features.

I would love to help test it out. I may ask a lot of questions about how things are done...because I iz learning....

A few watch faces from a NOOB - WatchMaker

Been toying around and learning LUA nad made a few faces. Please feel free to provide feedback
First up I called speed dial - Fairly straight forward - Hour hand on the outside and minutes/seconds share the inner dial.

Next up I named Radar - The sweeping second hand, well sweeps like radar. Also, the red spot on the inner circle is the batter percentage traveling around the circle.

Lastly (for now) I named this one simply Rotation. Is is a play off the stock rotator face. Sweeping seconds dial.

When I read watchfaces by a noob I thought... Anyway I love two out the 3 and they are on my phone. Well done and thanks! The 3d is good but I've one like it. The best is the first IMO. Looks like a car speedo.
Sent by entanglement.

Thanks, I seem to toggle between the radar one and the speed dial one most. Just getting into the designing so who knows what else may come to mind

like the last one!
post it on watchmaker's google+ page too! there's a lot of activity there

the last is beautiful

Thanks guys, ironically its the one I use the least. Will be uploading a few more today

Watchface showing current speed

Hey! I recently bought a motorcycle and found a way to mount my Sony Smartwach 3 to the handlebar. This works amazing in for Google Maps, but I thought it might could become even cooler, if there was a way to create a watchface that would be able to display the current speed you are traveling. Has anyone ever seen a watchface like that or knows if this is even possible?
Thanks!

I think it could be possible using Tasker.
I'm waiting for my watch, it should arrive this week
Posted via Tapatalk

I bought Tasker a while ago, but never used it. If you figure something out, please let me know!

Backcountry navigator has a watchface which shows speed, distance and elevation. It is meant for off-road travel, but does show speed.
It is a bit pricey, best t has a trial. Here is a link to the trial. I am not positive the trial allows you to use the Wear capability, but I think it does.

Here is a screenshot of the watchface. You can choose from many sources. I have put a request out to the devs to allow customization of the font color, because the white does seem to blend with some https://www.dropbox.com/s/bezln0053vcmqk6/BackcountrNav.jpg?dl=0

I think my answer was quite incomplete. There is an app Watchface Maker which support Tasker variable. You need to use both to achieve that. Or try to join Watchface Maker community in Google+ and make/search the request.
