IPS should make an apple widget

Perhaps you could explain your idea with a little more depth. What benefit would this serve? Would the widget allow posting in topics? It could be a useful idea if it actually allowed for full browsing on the board w/o having to open a web browser.

so its like making a little member-bar widget right there on your desktop. one of those might be useful for windows as well (even though i would damn windows to the bloody bowels of hell and its creator as well). But it sounds like a good idea for IPS enthusiasts. Maybe a client center access thingy could be added that allows you to access features of the client center. Sounds good to me!

I'd be willing to write something up. But I'm not familiar with OSX, let alone able to program widgets. Otherwise I totally would! :o



Is it an easy thing to program (widget)?

Alternatively there is Dashcode:

Wow that looks fairly easy...

Anyway, I got other things to work on, but that looks REALLY easy, if you guys don't mind waiting a month, I'd give it a go. :D
