Word Clock: update

New version, Mac native code this time. Thanks to Andy and Jay for suggestions: now you can choose your own colours and font. Not that there was anything wrong with my choices. Planning to add finer typographic control in future, but for now… enjoy playing with the leading.

    Screensaver for Typography Lovers

    Mattias told me about this very nice screensaver for Mac OS X. It renders the current time in a typeface and color of your choice. Very neat.

    Nice! Any plans to make this localizable? I could help with a German version…

    Hi Ole - yes, I’ve been thinking about localisation and it’s definitely something I want to do. Means a bit of a re-write but I should be able to fit it in the next couple of weeks. Thanks for the offer of help, I’ll let you know when it’s ready.

    Let me know, and I will do a Swedish translation. Would also like to see an option to adjust margin/spacing between screen corners and the graphics.
