There seems to be a problem for some people where by the new AFL Ladder widget doesn’t load properly. The problem seems to be with the widget preferences file.
I suggest closing the widget down, delete the widget preferences file (found under ~/Library/Preferences/widget-org.dyndns.expat.widget.aflladder.plist) then relaunch the AFL Ladder widget. You might also need to restart dashboard or reboot your Mac.
Ready for round 2 of season 2008, go to the AFL Widget page to download it.
I had to make fixes for all 3 sources this time around, hopefully they won’t change again in round 2!
Let me know if it’s working ok for you.
In what seems to have become a annual ritual, I’ve got an update to the AFL Ladder Widget on the way for the Mac OS X Dashboard.
This release fixes the ladder data fetching routines that have broken since the end of the 2007 season (the finalsiren.com and afl.com.au sources had stopped working with v1.5.3) and the update doesn’t introduce any new features. Don’t hold your breath for any new features either, I simply don’t have the time!
I might hold back on releasing it for the time being, perhaps until the season starts so that I don’t have to go through the same trouble I had last year of releasing a “fixed” version before the season started only to have it break again after round 1!
Your widgets should alert you when the new version is available to download.
Carn the Crows!
Rebecca submitted some of her new pieces as entries in the SALA 2007 festival for the best photographic works and guess what – she won the Atkins Technicolour Award!
So Rebecca is officially the best photographic artist in SALA 2007! Yay!
SALA had over 1500 different contributing artists in various media so winning this award is no mean feat – well done!
Check here for the list of winners: www.salafestival.com/awards.php
The award is also mentioned in the Advertiser.
Rebecca has an exhibition up for the SALA Festival, on show at the Hindmarsh Library! The show consists of a series of digital prints and an interactive CD for use at the library or at home. This show is part of Rebecca’s Fine-Tuned Universe series.
More information on Rebecca’s show can be found at this link here or by visiting the Hindmarsh Library online or preferably in person to see the art at 139 Port Road, Hindmarsh, SA.
Do yourself a favour and get along to see it!
This release fixes a minor problem due to sportal.com.au changing their ladder page recently.
The previous version of the widget (v1.5.2) should keep working with the other two sources (afl.com.au and finalsiren.com), but the new version also includes a couple of minor tweaks to the tooltips for finalsiren.com.
Head over to the AFL Widget page to get the latest version.
