IMSINCLAIR I just downloaded the Leapord version of Say Cheese and the Calvin & Hobbes doesn't work. Also, the buttons on the info section (back of the widget) are off-set. Besides that it seems fine though occasionally it locks up Dashboard temporarily. (Version 2.3) | |

WAPKAPLET Your fix is great! The graphics aren't skewed anymore and Calvin and Hobbes works now. But Sinfest appears to be broken. When Sinfest is selected on either of my Macs it locks up the entire dashboard for a long time. Also, I can see on my network monitor that there's a connection from the dashboard to www.sinfest.net that keeps spinning. Finally, I notice that when Sinfest is selected it jumps to an odd date where there's obviously no comic, like November 30th, 1899. After a while the network connection stops spinning, the dashboard unlocks and a new comic can be selected, but nothing from Sinfest ever actually loads. I've noticed similar behaviour if you try to go far back into the Penny Arcade archives for example. Is this happening to anyone else, or just me? | |

I upgrade to leopard and now Say Cheese widget still works but the graphic is a bit funny. It seems to me that there are some mistakes in html code 'cause the yellow graphic is always misplaced. Thanks for helping me (Version 2.3) | |

ICHATERGOSUM I've also got a display issue with this widget, version 2.3 according to Macupdate, from where I downloaded it. However, the version number is unspecified in the GetInfo window, other than 'Created: Saturday, 1 July 2006'.The widget does not have a solid yellow border when viewing a comic. Parts of the border are missing. A later version doesn't display Calvin & Hobbes at all, I just get 'Error'. Its GetInfo widow says 'Created: Saturday, 24 November 2007'. Am running Mac OS 10.5.1. (Version 2.3) | |

LHELDEN I truly love this widget, but I would like it if there were more comics to choose. There are several of the comics that just give "Error" now such as "Calvin & Hobbes", "Shoe" and "Wulffmorgenthaler" to name a few. I think there are more, but I don't have them selected. I used to get all three of these and now none of them display. If I have done something wrong or done something that I shouldn't have please let me know. "Calvin & Hobbes" is one of my favorites comics. Thanks for this widget. (Version 2.2) | |

HOBBESWIDGET And I will repeat it again: Adding comics is out of the question here. We provide quality control on the comics so that they load as fast as possible and with less errors. We'll include more comics (on request) in the next releases. The reasen for this is that most of the webcomics does't have a "normal" archive it has been changed during time and you can't relay on 1 link. (site.com/ddmmyyyy.jpeg next week HDIDEyymmdd.png (numbers are total not-regular)) It takes a lot of core-programming to let al the comics work. (Version 2.1) | |

SG definitely a good widget, but needs work still. This version felt much more fluid and on the ball, but had a few problems to itself. Namely, the 'next' button often seemed to fail, especially (almost always in fact) when trying to switch to the last comic with it. And as for allowing the user to add comics, it'd be a cool idea, but I remember trying to add comics to comictastic and coming close to an aneurism... but hell, if you can make it more usable then that go for it.

ANONYMOUS Hi, did you trashed the prefs? Look at the post below. (Version 1.3) | |
 | Nov 14 2005 |
There are a lot of troubles with Ctrl-Alt-Del. The site is redesigned and we need a new CAD-core to scrape of the images. At this moment we're still testing it. 1. close the widget by clicking the X button (dashboard one) 2. spotlight on "say cheese" (without quotes) 4. drag the "... say cheese ... .plist" file to the trash 7. don't read CAD anymore until the new version arrives Sorry for all the troubles! | |

.Say
Cheese
.plist file) open the widget. Don't look to CAD, it will freeze Say Cheese again. Update is coming. (Version 1.3) | |

ANONYMOUS Well, CAD is the problem, they have remade there website and Say Cheese is (v1.3) not compatible with that new site. It will freeze Say Cheese. Trash the prefs of Say Cheese (search for Say cheese and delete the .plist file (!) Empty the trash (!)) en reopen the widget, but don't look at CAD it will freeze up again. The new CAD core is done and the update will come. (Version 1.3) | |

MATTHEW Excellent concept for a widget. The Say Cheese widget froze a number of times. I had to take it off my machine when in a frozen state unknowingly to me it downloaded over 300mB from the internet. Killing Say Cheese in Activity didn't stop it. I had to remove it from the dashboard before it stopped. As said, I like the concept but the program is unreliable. (Version 1.3) | |

I have very few widgets and this is one of them. I like the way it minimises gracefully, and it loads swiftly too. And the developer is clearly listening (see replies to comments below) so get your requests in! My humble request is for Max Cannon's Red Meat. Other than that, colour me happy. (Version 1.3) | |

ANONYMOUS Yes it needs an option to hide comics from the list! Or maybe just add a small button (a small heart for example) which shows a "favorites" list when you click on it - the full list could remain. All in all a very nice widget and with a much nicer design than wimic! And yes, an option for adding comics would be very nice! (Version 1.2) | |

ANONYMOUS Oke I will say it again. Adding comics is not possible because we provide quality control on the comics so that they load faster and with less errors. (The most comics don't work with "/ddmmjj.png they change every month/jear) If you type one link the comic may give you one month of fun
) If you like a comic you can tell it here or mail it to us. on hobbes.osxy.nl you can find the link. The option to disable comics will come in the next version (we had a lot of work with time-zones. (Version 1.2) | |
