Post Notifier

I have made a very simple post notifier for your Windows computer.  It monitors Omnimaga and alerts you to new posts.

O.o that's nice! But question, does it do Randomness too? Does it require the person to login to use it?

It just pulls the last post from the rss feed, which I believe includes Randomness.

Awesome! I'm assuming that the Test topic was about this?


Spoiler For Projects:

My projects haven't been worked on in a while, so they're all on hiatus for the time being. I do hope to eventually return to them in some form or another...

Spoiler For Pokemon TI:
Axe port of Pokemon Red/Blue to the 83+/84+ family. On hold.

Spoiler For Nostalgia:
My big personal project, an original RPG about dimensional travel and a few heroes tasked with saving the world.
Coding-wise, on hold, but I am re-working the story.

Spoiler For Finale's Super Insane Tunnel Pack of Doom:
I will be combining Blur and Collision Course into a single gamepack. On hold.

Spoiler For Nostalgia Origins: Sky's Story:
Prequel to Nostalgia. On hold, especially while the story is re-worked.

I don't think Randomness appears in the RSS feed, though, does it?

Yep.
As for disabling it, go to Task Manager>Processes>postnotify.exe>End Process
:P I wrote this in about 5 minutes.
As for Randomness, it showed up when I was testing :P

As a quick feature request: a right-click > disable, if you have the time...

Ah ok. I guess if you are logged in from the browser your notifier uses, then it will show Randomness. Otherwise, if it's like Spybot45, it will not.

Also it works nicely.

One other question: When running a game, will this automatically go back to Windows? Also, how many times a minute does it checks Omni? I would like if it did not update too often (maybe once every 10 second or so). Otherwise, prepare for 10x more Internal Server Errors.

Deep Thought, you will also notice that the icon shows "notifyIcon1" when you hover your mouse over it :P
I'll eventually add the ability to set the time between checks (currently 10 secs), and the ability to exit.
DJ, I have no idea about games.  Someone want to test that?

Ah ok. Also when right clicking or left clicking on the icon, no menu appears. Is that normal?

Right/left, yes.
