Hi, thanks again for the great comment its always nice to read!
.
Thanks Mj and Fairlane, Actually my girlfriend dont like it too… She says its too big… lol ... I like big toys…
.
Falcon4ever--- Thanks for the compliment. I really appreciate the explanation of the image loader and I will try it soon. Well i really want to thanks you and everyone releasing great app cause I’m able to build a nice MT screen but I’m not able to make the soft to run it. So if you didn’t release soft i would never have made this screen. Thanks a lot!

Hi guys!
I had an entire spare week end! As my screen its practicaly done I look to something else to do. While surfing the nuigroup I found many people that actually had problem finding the soft. My company website is hosted on an 1200 gb/month transfer and only use 400 megs lol! So its not a proplem for me to host the file and provide direct download link for bin files. I made a website (a kind of download.com) on wich I will post every bin i could Find.

I know its a bit rought! Theres a lot of developement to do but:
Here it goes:
http://www.softmt.com/

I simply put files that was on touchlib svn for now but i’ll update it soon!
Thanx Chris

Hey Falcon4ever, I’m trying to get your app to work with .JPG files in the DCIM directory of a USB stick, and was wondering what else do I need to get this to work? At the moment the app boots up with my pics from my images and videos directory on my PC. When I plug in my USB stick Windows tries to Autoplay the drive and prompts me to open the directory or print the photos etc… Is the app supposed to be restarted or does it just auto detect? At this stage nothing i try seems to work.  :(

I wasn’t sure from your readme if the auto detect funtion actually exisited or not..

7. This PRO version doesnt needs lmPhotos.txt and lmVideos.txt, it is capable to detect images and video files itself.

Uploaded a howto:

New release should be up tonight.

Thank guys its really nice to read! I’ve been working all weekend onto it… I will put more details onto my instructable pages. I will try to put a maximum of details. Personnally its the programers who inspirate me because this is the part I’m not able to do… smile

I have aded some pic on my flicker account… You can see it Here!

P.s. If anybody have any question regarding construction please ask me in this thread not by pm. I prefer, writing it one time here, than 10 times by pm.

Thank again for the good comments!  Its awesome to read!! Im planning on making some videos now with new cool soft!
Chris
