BTW can you give me any link for GTK+ programming?

oh...........Gtalk does need similies....ok but thank u once again for this

Re: GigaSmilies - Use Yahoo Smilies in Forums

Excellent...Gigacore... really innovative...

One Suggestion:
This is just a kinda tweak you can say. Add a tooltip on every button and write the name of tht expression... like if i hover over a smiling smiley then a tooltip saying "Smile" should appear.

*gigasmilies.googlepages.com/1.gif

Re: GigaSmilies - Use Yahoo Smilies in Forums

Re: GigaSmilies - Use Yahoo Smilies in Forums

If the Gigasmilies window is on top it uses lot of cpu power(almost 25%). If it is in the background it uses 0%. Is this high cpu usage normal?

Re: GigaSmilies - Use Yahoo Smilies in Forums

Yeah its .Net

casual_gamer said:

Yes.. this is the prob we are facing and as qwerty said its built on .NET

The amount of CPU usage depends upon ur CPU Make and Model. For me its around 10% while its maximized.

And with addition to .NET, all the smilies animate at once.. this is the another reason. (it may consume around 1 - 2%)

And we are finding ways to overcome this..

Hey!! that's a cool software.

Nice work!!

GigaSmilies v1.1 Released

I'm Glad to Launch my new version of GigaSmilies

GigaSmilies v1.1 - Yahoo Edition

Whats new in v1.1 ?

GigaSmilies v1.1 has a new feature called "Tray Mode". You can select the smiley without opening the main window!. And you can also switch between Tray Mode and Full Mode Easy.

The Smilies are categorized and can be accessed by just right-clicking on the GigaSmilies icon in the tray. Just browse through the menus and click on the one you want to insert and the BB code automatically gets copied and you can simply paste in the forum to use it!.

And one Non-Yahoo smiley is now replaced with two new yahoo smilies.

.. Any way Myself or Gigacore absolutely didnot know about this before and I asure that Gigasmilies was not inspired by that software.. And also we both are not members of the Chip forum.

BTW did you create that application?

Yes thats correct.. we developed it by our concept.. But now as this other application has come to the picture .. we may have to defend our work .. any way its protected by CC so no need to worry

..

now there is another problem

.. What features we wanted to include in the next version is available in that application

Ok
The application is written in Visual basic 2005.We have used Visual Basic 2005 Express edition for the development. As you may already be knowing this is a windows forms application. The whenever a button is pressed the respective BB code gets generated and is copied to the clipboard thats the logic. There is no third party tools used. All the components used are inbuilt in VS 2005 express edition.

Thanks, i had the idea of that. Shouldnt be difficult enough. I know VB 6....no idea of Visual Basic 2005 though .

IS the Tray Menu, Tray Notification, all that stuff easy to do in VB 2005 ?

Yes its absolutely easy to do all these stuff..

Just add the Tray Notification component into the form and select a icon,

Add a Context menu into the project, edit the list in that and link it to the notify icon and its done.. i.e., you will get a right click menu for the notify icon

Re: GigaSmilies v1.1 Released

Gigacore, this time, its working well...

Why don't you make it online?? I mean, a browser window opens in which all the smilies are present. On clicking anyone of it, the same work is done. This way, a user can access the smilies from anywhere and you can make it platform independent.

Re: GigaSmilies v1.1b Released!

I think he means tray...

Re: GigaSmilies v1.1b Released!

Charan said:

I mean when It's minimized to the tray and when you don't use it at all. It take up a good 5% of processor usage.

And also, if you try to shutdown the system without exiting out of the program, the computer is not able to end task it and I have to manually either exit before shutting down or end task the processing when it's stuck at that screen during shutdown. I hope this feedback is useful

Thank you. I will check this out.

I have checked with minimize to tray and it doesnot use any CPU. I checked this with both vista as well as in XP , if you can then please provide a screen shot of the taskmanager with Gigasmilies running in tray mode.

Re: GigaSmilies v1.1b Released!

Yup.. even i havent seen any CPU usage in tray mode or in idle...

still we will look at it as charan said..

Is your software open source? I mean I want to do some modification. I want the BBCodes to be replaced by proper HTML codes so that I can use the smilies in my blog. I also want to transfer the smilies to my own server.

Atleast you can make a HTML code version. What do you say?

@Giga and @Charan-Great work......... again *gigasmilies.googlepages.com/113.gif One question. I find 6 new emoticons which is not available on Yahoo Messenger. Those being, "Don't want to see", "Rock On","Hurry up","Thumbs down","Wasn't me" and "Thumbs up". Also, what about the "Bee" emot? I'm using ver 8.1.0.421. Like Cyrus pointed out, the CPU usage
is quite high on my system as well. Especially in full mode. Could you please check out that issue?

U can see those smilies in 9 Beta... some call its hidden smilies in 8.. not sure.. any.. link here

phreak0ut said:

1. Coz this is a .NET app.
2. All the smilies animate at once.. which makes further slow.. (only if u r on low speed processor.. u will feel the lag)
3. I recommend u to use tray mode. Coz smilies are branched out in the menu.. less smilies animate at once so less CPU usage.
4. We are working on this issue.. if u still feel its not ok. u can try and use WebVersion. (Specially made for Linux and MAC users)

Re: GigaSmilies v1.1b Released!

Same as blackpearl suggested... can u include the functionality to generate html codes so we can use those smilies on our blogs.

Nice thing u r doing there.

Re: GigaSmilies v1.1b Released!

@Giga-Thanks for clearing out the doubt regarding the CPU usage. I'm using in tray mode now. Installed Y! messenger 9 beta. Those extra smilies are available only on the latest version and is not part of the hidden smilies shown on the yahoo page.

Re: GigaSmilies for Linux & MAC

put my smilies yet?

I can give you more if you are intrested...

Re: GigaSmilies v1.1b Released!

Guys Gigasmilies 1.1b runs on Suse Linux 10.3 *gigasmilies.googlepages.com/4.gif ..

Make sure you have mono installed in your system. My suse installation has mono version 1.2.5 installed. I am trying to get Gigasmilies up and running in Ubuntu Gusty and Fedora 8 *gigasmilies.googlepages.com/12.gif still no luck *gigasmilies.googlepages.com/46.gif

How to run:
Open terminal and use the following command.

Code:

mono GigaSmilies\ v1.1b.exe

*img79.imageshack.us/img79/3203/screenshotlt1.th.jpg

Know issues with Suse 10.3
1. Gif's are not animated. *gigasmilies.googlepages.com/2.gif
2. In tray mode the menus expand outside the visible area which makes tray mode un-usable *gigasmilies.googlepages.com/12.gif
3. Restoring from tray mode to full mode make the button look disabled ( looks gray scale ) .. but hovering the cursor over the buttons make the color reappear.

Re: GigaSmilies v1.1b Released!

Hi!

We both are glad to announce our new version of GigaSmilies on our new dedicated GigaSmilies site this new year!

GigaSmilies is a free smilies application that lets you to use different smilies on Bulletin Boards, Blogs and social networking sites like Orkut.

GigaSmilies v1.2 - Ultimate Edition

Whats new in GigaSmilies v1.2 Ultimate Edition?

GigaSmilies v1.2 Ultimate Edition sports several new features. The major addition is the feature called "Smart Swap". And two smiley sets.

*farm3.static.flickr.com/2012/2153816184_daa5161c40_o.jpg

New Features:

Smart Swap

Aqua Smilies.

New UI

Code Generation (Selectable IMG, HTML, Orkut and URL tags)

Settings Panel.

Turn on/off Smart Swap from Settings, Status Bar and Tray Mode.

Quick Smilies Set Selection from main window and Tray Mode.

What is Smart Swap?

Smart Swap is a new feature that lets u to insert smilies to bulletin boards without opening the application or from the tray mode. You just have to enter the GS Smiley Code, select it, copy it, the Smart Swap will copy the respective Smiley IMG code automatically to the clipboard and you can just paste on it! This will replace the smiley code with the BB code. The Smart Swap works only with IMG tags and only in Tray Mode.

[B]What is GS Smiley Code, where can I access it?[/B]

GS Smiley Code is the codes that have been set by default to each and every smilies in the application. You need to type the GS Smiley Code in forums to use Smart Swap. You can see the GS Smiley Code by taking the mouse pointer over any smiley in the main window.

[B]How to use Smart Swap?
[/B]
You can use Smart Swap only in Tray mode and for IMG tags. To use Smart Swap, you need to turn on Smart Swap feature from Settings, Status Bar or from the Tray Mode menu. After enabling the Smart Swap, switch to tray mode and then browse the forums. Whenever you feel like adding a smiley in the forum, just type the smiley code and select it, copy it and then paste on it. This will replace the smiley code with the IMG code.

For example, if you want insert this smiley [IMG]*gigasmilies.googlepages.com/34a.gif , then you just want to type " : ) " (without the quotes and space) the GS Smiley Code and the select, copy and paste on it. And follow the steps below:

Step1:
Type the GS Smiley Code in the forum you want to insert. Here in this example I will teach you to insert this smiley *gigasmilies.googlepages.com/34a.gif .

For that smiley, the GS Smiley Code is : ) Just type the code and select it with your mouse or keyboard using shift + arrow keys.

*farm3.static.flickr.com/2264/2153818622_02ca441f4b_o.jpg

Step 2:

Then copy it, give 1/2 second gap and paste on the selected GS Smiley Code (The Smiley IMG Code will be automatically copied by Smart Swap to ClipBoard). And paste on it. Now the respective Smiley IMG code will be replaced.

*farm3.static.flickr.com/2386/2153818402_f700325052_o.jpg

As you can see in the above image, the GS Smiley Code : ), is replaced with [IMG.]*gigasmilies.googlepages.com/34a.gif[./IMG]

Turning Smart Swap on and off:

Re: GigaSmilies v1.2 Ultimate Edition Released!

That's one amazing APP.
Gr8 Work & keep going.

Re: GigaSmilies v1.2 Ultimate Edition Released!

A few words of free, unsolicited advice:

1. Have the description edited by someone with an excellent grasp of the English language before publishing it on the website;

2. Re-design the website. I don't mean to offend anyone but it looks like crap right now;

3. Register and use a top-level domain. It is so incredibly cheap that there is no excuse not to have one these days;

4. If possible, re-design the interface of the application. Make it look better;

5. Find ways to make some money out of the endeavour (without charging for the application itself); and

6. Keep up the good work and enjoy yourself.

Re: GigaSmilies v1.2 Ultimate Edition Released!

added features are cool
nice effort

Re: GigaSmilies v1.2 Ultimate Edition Released!

Thank u Guys!

Duh, it say how crap my english is. Which is actually true. And sure from next time i'll.

aryayush said:
2. Re-design the website. I don't mean to offend anyone but it looks like crap right now;

Heh! Actually, I didnt have the sufficient time to design it. So selected a tempate which I can edit easily.

aryayush said:
3. Register and use a top-level domain. It is so incredibly cheap that there is no excuse not to have one these days;

Huh, infact, I won the www.themebin.com. I bought that domain yesterday. So created a sub domain for my app. And after few new releases i will consider buying a dedicated one.

aryayush said:
4. If possible, re-design the interface of the application. Make it look better;

It is possible. If you have seen the older versions of my application, this is way better than those releases. And I was thinking of desigining a new interface for next version. But dont expect MAC UI *gigasmilies.googlepages.com/40a.gif.

Hmm..then why is it slow here? Can u do one thing, can u make ngen.exe to compile it?

Re: GigaSmilies v1.2 Ultimate Edition Released!

@ gx, the smilies animation makes the app a bit slow. but the app performs well in tray mode. soon we are finding a solution for this

Re: GigaSmilies v1.2 Ultimate Edition Released!

So finally rocket is launched

Re: GigaSmilies v1.2 Ultimate Edition Released!

Great work dudes.

Re: GigaSmilies v1.2 Ultimate Edition Released!

Thanks for the feedback guys ..

gx_saurav said:

the code is not yet optimized, I had used ngen too but decided against releasing it because we didnot have time to test it properly... in next version we are changing the complete approach of how images are rendered and it will be very light on system resources. We are keeping resource consumption as our highest priority

We wont release next version untill all the current issues are fixed.

Re: GigaSmilies v1.2 Ultimate Edition Released!

Perfect. I'm glad to see that my suggestions were fulfilled in this version.

And thanks for giving me space in "About" box.

Re: GigaSmilies v1.2 Ultimate Edition Released!

WHAT!! *gigasmilies.googlepages.com/28a.gif

can you give us the address its trying to access?

we donot have any code which does a internet access

if possible pls give a screenshot.

Re: GigaSmilies v1.2 Ultimate Edition Released!

when openning ultimate edition "look n stop" firewall ask this question.

If i click block, then GigaSmilies crashes.

Thank god im releived *gigasmilies.googlepages.com/18.gif this is not a major issue.

I installed this firewall and came to know the reason on why this was happening.

We have a feature which allows the application to check if another instance of the application is running if running it wont load. This feature uses some operating system sockets to check for another instance. The "Look and Stop" firewall which you mentioned detected this as a internet access ( cause the app tried to use a socket ) but this is a false possitive detection. I checked this by disabling the multiple instance feature and this time the firewall didnot raise a alarm.

So to conclude .. there is nothing to worry about this and you can authorize the application *gigasmilies.googlepages.com/32a.gif and start using it *gigasmilies.googlepages.com/113.gif

Re: GigaSmilies v1.2 Ultimate Edition Released!

well done Charan and Santhosh!

Re: GigaSmilies v1.2 Ultimate Edition Released!

hey charan and santosh, can you guys tell me what are the components you added to gigasmiles? I am in the process of creating a similar gtk app called GSmiles(G is for Gautham/GNU/GTK). I am using the notebook widget to display pages with the smilies in them. I want some help, as I am just getting started. And did you include those banner smilies I gave you? Can I hotlink smilies from gigasmiles.googlepages.com to my program?

Re: GigaSmilies v1.2 Ultimate Edition Released!

^check the license in gigasmily home page !!!

Re: GigaSmilies v1.2 Ultimate Edition Released!

thank u guys...

and this time WebVersion is also developed to make linux users to use the smilies easily.

We will make still more developments soon

Re: GigaSmilies v1.2 Ultimate Edition Released!

great work *gigasmilies.googlepages.com/36a.gif
lage raho.... *gigasmilies.googlepages.com/40a.gif

Re: GigaSmilies v1.2 Ultimate Edition Released!

Guys another thing is make it like a globe or some icon just like we have in flashget downloader..yöü know that small thing which shows the status..if yöü just make some icon like that,say a big cute similie and the moment we click it,it shows all the similie's.. This would be of great help since i can keep the gigasimilies on top of the title bar of opera and click it and everything pops up and i select and paste. Cool huh

Just a suggestio.
But dont add too many feature, it will spoil the simplicity and will make complex for casual user

Re: GigaSmilies v1.2 Ultimate Edition Released!

Hey Gigacore, I can help u in making this a Vista native app using WPF, after that the slowness will also go away due to animations as it is right now. What say? U already have managed code, u just need to link it with expression Blend UI. I can make the UI while Zeeshan (cos he is close to me geographically) or u can link that to the backend code....

oky.....*gigasmilies.googlepages.com/34a.gif

Re: GigaSmilies v1.2 Ultimate Edition Released!

@ gx.. thanks for ur interest man.. thats good. we both have found two different alternatives for this problem. and alteast one will be implemented, which will save a lot of resource and makes the app faster.

We will discuss about that. If we find that our method wont work. Then u can jumpin.

Re: GigaSmilies v1.2 Ultimate Edition Released!

^^are it's very easy. Just make a window in Blend, then put clickable buttons on it & these images....

Try this with the existing code. Make the app show no animation, but once the user mouse hovers a button, animations starts

Re: GigaSmilies v1.2 Ultimate Edition Released!

Yeah, amazing work man! Congrats and happy new year to all! *gigasmilies.googlepages.com/chris13.gif

Re: GigaSmilies v1.2 Ultimate Edition Released!

Its rocking...*gigasmilies.googlepages.com/42a.gif

But its takes 20 MBs of Ram at application startup and memory consumption goes as high as 35 MBs after 10-15 minute of working.
Is it normal ? *gigasmilies.googlepages.com/17a.gif

Anyway... Great App. (Using it on my Blog.*gigasmilies.googlepages.com/31a.gif)

Re: GigaSmilies v1.2 Ultimate Edition Released!

^ We try to fix that issue.. That is out highest priority now. We wont release any windows version untill we fix that issue.

Thanks for using it.

@ MODs, please merge this thread with Giga Software Tread

UPDATE:

Hi Friends!

We BOTH are glad to announce an UPDATE of the new GigaSmilies WebVersion which is specially designed for Linux and MAC users. This time the WebVersion can be used just like an windows version of GigaSmilies.

Try the latest WebVersion which is almost the replica of windows version of GigaSmilies.

The the window pops out and looks just like the application. The layout is simple and easy to use. You can switch between smiley packs from the combo box easily and can choose the tags u want. The page wont take much time to load. You can easily minimize it to the taskbar.

How to use: Internet Explorer, Firefox, Opera & Safari users can just click on the smilies to copy the code automatically to the clipboard. Other browser users needs to click on the smiley and should copy from the test box.

We have optimized this webversion for firefox. Yet it works fine in Opera, IE and Safari.

*farm3.static.flickr.com/2417/2165906138_cab10ae245_o.jpg

Tip: Windows users with low system configuration can use this as GigaSmilies alternative.

=================================================

Try New WebVersion

=================================================
