Topic: How can I make my own simple widget?

I'd like a white background with our comany's name and logo on it that says "Welcome to XYX Company!" and it automatically go through several slides introducing what we do, etc...

I forsee the chumby as a device we can have sitting in our lobby playing this on repeat...

If someone can help me do this....could be some free publicity for chumby too smile

Re: How can I make my own simple widget?

Hi,

Do you have a version of Adobe Flash? If you have Flash CS3, you can go to Templates > Consumer Devices > Chumby to get started. http://wiki.chumby.com/mediawiki/index. … for_chumby has more information.

The easy way would be to just add a few slides, but if you wanted to get more creative, you could use use an external XML file with dynamic values (e.g. news, random text or images etc.).

Remember you can test your widget on a virtual Chumby first.

Hope this helps!

Regards,
Chris
