Description: wmblob shows some blobs moving around. It does nothing useful, it's just a toy.

I just love the blobbing, liquid thing.
This Dockapp is much cooler than wmmatrix or any other "amusing misuse of ressources" like programm.

What kind of engine is used to create this oil-in-water like behaviour?

Just download it - everyone!! :-D

Version 0.1.0 has been out for two weeks now. I'd like to thank everyone who installed wmblob! :)

(If anyone gets problems while installing/compiling, contact me)
& enlightenment ?

really... , u did a great job, i like it too, but i hope that it'll work on other wm.it's need options such as --broken-wm & --windowed

posted by (anonymous) - 2004-02-07 21:49:03

lemme guess... feathered circle texture, 8 or so of 'em, semi-random travel patterns, additive blending. looks sweet!
New version is out! Cool new stuff!
posted by Jean-Luc Herren (logged user) - 2004-02-26 06:24:42

Version 1.0.0 has just been released. It features a settings dialog, where you can change almost everything! And you can save and load presets. You'll need GTK+ v2 for it to compile.

For the next version I'll see what --broken-wm is for (anyone?) and add a windowed mode.

Enjoy.
Version 1.0.1
posted by Jean-Luc Herren (logged user) - 2004-02-26 10:15:22

Well, that was fast: The second release today. New options: --broken-wm, --windowed, --display. Tell me, if it works now.

Enjoy.
Looks cool

Version 1.0.3
posted by Jean-Luc Herren (logged user) - 2004-11-18 12:13:59

New version is out! This is just a small fix. It should now compile and run fine on FreeBSD.

Have fun!

You should add a feature so it will rotate through the different presets. I guess I can add it, but you should release it.
grrrr

As said by yourself, this is the kind of apps shouldnt be installed on low spec system like mine, they just waste resources... but this one is so gorgeous ^_^ ! I had to get it!

So sweeeet :)
On gentoo just do a
./configure --x-libraries=/usr/lib/libX11.so

This works for me on xorg...

Thanks to the author for this very nice looking app

Like paper in the fire
posted by Fiddler (logged user) - 2006-10-14 18:27:25

I like this little app. I have it set with: blob count 50; overlay 64; color Center and background are Black (0,0,0); color glow red (254,71,0); Blob size 5; falloff 32; presence 255; Border style all are 0.
This reminds me of paper in the fireplace after it has burned to all black and the red lines of burning dance around it one more time. -=peace=-
