Nice work Conbagui, I love the colors you used. :bigthup

@ Rod...I'd like to have this clock for Clocx too Rod. Will you post the files for it if you ever get the xcf?

Ok here is a screenshot and the zip is attached.

The zip includes the clock image and the ini file. Place both in your Clocx presets folder and right click your clock and select options. Click the Appearance tab and select these options.

Click ok. The clock should be on your desktop and you can now move it wherever you wish. Sorry it can get no smaller.

If you open the image in GIMP or another image editor BEFORE you place it in the preset folder and re size it (smaller) you can then save it to Clocx/presets folder and it will be smaller in Clocx.

Enjoy! :bigthup

I was not able to get the hour and minute hand images to work. They have to be saved as a hpng (whatever that is). Seems to be some kind of Adobe Illustrator file.

Thanks for putting the Gimp Chat clock for Clocx together Rod and thanks for creating it Conbagui. :bigthup

Now, How can I replace the Hand on the clocx?

We would need to have a separate png images, (with a transparent background) for each of the clock hands that you used in your Gimp Clock image.

Not sure what all this 'clocx' stuff is about, but your apparent issues with 'clock hands' reminded me of some aboriginal stories I heard about a 'timeless land' from an old aboriginal elder at Uluru ... so

Hope you do not mind me posting it in this thread!

I am still trying to figure that out. All the hands have a HPNG extension. It is some kind of Illustrator file. Does GIMP save in the hpng extension i wonder?

Not that I know of, but maybe Conbagui has the answer to that question.

No what i mean is any hand image used in Clocx, Clocx needs it to be a hpng extension for some odd reason.If i try to save the images as that extension in the presets folder they don't work. If you open one of those that does in notepad ++ you will see this.

Hence the reason i believe it's an Adobe imageready file extension.

It seems the clock png images themselves work fine, but all the hand images are that funny extension.

How did you get your custom hands to work for your clocks in the ini file?

I used existing ini files and edited them accordingly. All the clocks I've made have custom hands that are png images I made with Gimp. The clocks I've made so far all work and all I use is png images.
I attached a zip file with 2 Spawn clocks I made, with all the png images and ini files to go with them.
