Super idea !
Yes, the sound there is no. It also seems, that some animation frames has black background instead of transparent and it's flickering ugly.
Read this: http://my.opera.com/Judgekrabs/blog/ It's a tutorial on how to fix the widget sounds.
Bu kadar gereksiz bi eklenti görmedim
its fun just like lucky thanks
thats great!! how about different "themes", so you can choose between dollars, euros etc...
#basti2015: I can't, because the look of euros, dollars etc original coins is copyrighted/protected.
any idea which site is rank 1?
: Why do you post this question here? Please don't post questions about other widgets on this page, thanks.
Cool. I like it=) But i'm very lucky(unlucky?), as i see: i have already seventh times "9"=) Oh! finally the other side.
Grafio - you are teh best widgetmaker!!!
well...why not tossing a real coin?
My coin keeps coming up as the opera side xD
#grafio: #basti2015: I can't, because the look of euros, dollars etc original coins is copyrighted/protected. Although I am not a laywer, I believe that while the euro is copyrighted, one is free to reproduce its image under certain conditions (http://www.bundesbank.de/download/bargeld/pdf/reproduktion_anlage_com.pdf - English document regarding the copyright of the Euro). Note that this document speaks of the 'common' side - the national sides may have other rules. But that simply means the national side would be Opera Displaying on a computer monitor would be a "flat" display, and using it in a widget does not damage or detract from the image of the euro. So I think you could legally make a version of this widget with an actual euro design. Now, whether you want to or not, that's up to you.
muhaha i like it
Hello . You are teh best widgetmaker, grafio.
the previous version of golden coin was my favourite widget. By using +Button I could bring it to fullscreen-size. That is not possible with this version. Additionally this new coin is landing on the flipside in about 80 percent of all tosses.
Oh, yes man! This is sweet. Now I have a reason to say yes or no to stuff. Makes me think of that cohen movies brother. Put a sound in it! Do it! (Check pepsi volume for inspiration)
uo-hou! got the number!
Great widget, great idea, but uneven odds. lands on opera side about 66% of time. However, if you can fix the habit it has of repeating the same result 10 times over, it would be perfect. Perhaps you could base the result off of both the computer's clock AND a pseudo-random number, so that the chance is a bit more even
