Q:
Why Don't you Have Preset Styles In The Wizard?
A: Because quite literally there
would be millions if not billions to choose from by presenting
you with a interface where you can shape the counter into
anything you like your counter can be ultimately unique on
your WebPage if not the entire Internet, one slight difference
produces a different counter additionally by doing it this
way you can shape the counter to suit your page instead of
using what every one else does the same boring counter, can
you imagine scrolling through pages and pages of different
designs this would actually take longer than building it for
yourself.
However; saying all this there have
been quite a few users that either stick to the original default
design they are given when they first get the counter and/or
remove everything so they just get the numbers these options
are being thought about all the time as style choices and
over time may make these style options available as presets
for those not wishing to take on the wizard as he is turning
into quite a beast.
For Example: each item on the counter
has 256 colours to choose from i.e. say we only offered 2
font sizes for the digits of the counter and 256 colours for
each font size already you have 512 different combinations
and styles you could decide on......
Then if you multiply 256 by 7 the
actual font sizes available you have around 1792 and that
is without bringing into the equation the digits length which
you can choose between 1 and 15 we now are getting into silly
numbers 1792 was bad enough how about 26'880 in very simple
math, can you really imagine scrolling through just that amount
of style sheets on web pages because it does not stop there
every new item we add to the wizards versatility multiples
it's styles and options tenfold i.e. as it stands with the
wizard you could quite easily equate and multiply 256 x 256
x 256 x 256 and get an error on your calculator because it's
run out of numbers and combinations.
I really don't know if we will ever
offer style sheets to choose from because there are just too
many combinations involved the numbers make it near impossible
"I very much doubt it in fact" and it's not over
yet there are at least another ten items to be added to the
wizard which again blows the above equation out the window
and multiples the wizards options yet again, so you see the
versatility of style of the Globel counter because of the
wizard is becoming boundless and will continue to do So and
really it's half a dozen of one and 6 of another what do you
think.
