Jumping Jack 0.9

by Zalo DS
Zalo DS's Notes
===============
Have you ever stopped to think about the first videogame you ever played? I know there are hundreds of people out there answering that it is Super Mario Bros, Tetris or any other famous one. For me it is different. It has to be one of those stored in a cassete for our old ZX Spectrum 128k (wow!) I remember myself like 22 or something like that years ago entering into my old brother's room that January 6th, sitting there and playing it... for the first time. It is hard to believe that I still spend some time playing it in some emulators

So.. I looked for a remake. Althought I found some games based on it there wasn't any that keeped me entertained enought so I decided to do my own one . It started as a very easy task but then I realize I had to model the 10 hazards (oh... it is in 3d, sorry about that ^_^UU) and animate the main character.... bla, bla

Anyway, here it is! You can find it in the download section as usual or just after this paragraph. I hope you enjoy it as much as I am doing and if you have any suggestions don't hesitate to send them

PS: oh... yes... the DS version... I am sorry to say that the poor DS is not capable of moving the game well enought beyond the 5th level, so I decided not to publish it I would need a new set of graphics and I am not really sure I want to do that ^_^U

ThemeShooterTk 0.06

by HoKaze
ThemeShooterTk is a cross-platform, Python based clone of ThemeShooter made by HoKaze.

It can be run on Windows, Linux, Mac OS X and most modern Unix-like operating systems so long as the following requirements are met:

Python 2.x (Python 2.6 and 2.7 should work fine)

Tkinter (should come with python)

Python Imaging Library, PIL (Tends to be included with python)
PIL: ImageTk Module (on Linux this tends to be kept seperate, look for the "python-imaging-tk" package)

What started off as a quick and dirty clone of the original ThemeShooter has since grown and whilst it may be behind the original and ThemeShooterX, it should hopefully suffice for some basic "themeshots." I do intend on continuing to add to it on the rare occasion I have time.

FEATURES 0.06

-Dummy text (with alpha)
-Theme previews
Screenshot generation
-Replaces missing images (apart from the background) with images from Dark Water v2- theme

ThemeShooterX 1.1

by Leathl
ThemeShooterX (made by Leathl) is a Mac OS X version of ThemeShooter (Universal Binary, 32bit PPC and 32/64bit Intel). I made this when I started to learn coding for Mac and was in lack of ideas for applications. It should run under Leopard and Snow Leopard and might also run under Tiger, but I'm not able to test or ensure that, as I have no machine running Tiger.

There are a few differences to the original application:
-Each opened theme gets its own window including a preview
-You can choose 4:3 and 16:9 (widescreen)
-Preferences (changed preferences only affect new opened windows):
-Draw a pointer (hand) on Themeshots
-Draw the description defined in theme.xml on Themeshots
-Adjustable blur effect on Themeshots to get a TV-like look
-Use application database (see below)
