Installation
================
Under your Login Window prefrences, there should be an "Add..." button where you can add the .tar.gz file this file was contained in.
[Note: if you don't see it, make sure you are under your user's folder instead of root. That got me the first time!]
If you are having problems with installation, you can move this folder ('Clock' folder) to /usr/share/mdm/html-themes/ (you may need to be root).
This theme has a few settings that can easily be changed...
Background
================
> If the picture you want is a .jpg file you can...
just move whatever picture you want into the folder where index.html is and replace bg.jpg
> Otherwise
you must edit css/theme.css [line 13] to reflect the name/location of your background file.
(I *plan* on making this easier in the future...)
Clock
================
> Hour/minute separator blink
In index.html [line 10], setting 'shouldBlink' equal to true causes separator to flash, false does not flash.
> 12 or 24 hour clock
In index.html [line 11], setting clockType to 24 uses a 24 hour clock. Any other value shows a 12 hour clock.
(Would you use some different clock type if I included it?)
Ideas? Requests?
================
I have been thinking about different ideas that could go into this theme...
- Use the selected user's background?
- Choose a random background from a folder?
...but I probably won't work on that unless someone (you?) lets me know they would like to see a feature added.
