One video to play

I just created one little flash video using wink to show what i've done till now, still needs refinements, text is ugly but it's somehow nice (it's 14MB, expect some slowness)(Wink died if I disabled the overlayed cursor, so it's there ;) Any feedback/ideas are more than welcome

First screenshot ever

I've been working today to get something visual to post in this blog, and something has come up.
Looks nice, doesn't it?

The code is insane and text alignment is not correct, but you can see some localization going on in the Kdevelop icon.

As you can see folders are also recognized and i'm working to integrate a mime recognizer to put icons for the files that are neither ".desktop" nor directories.

The layout is static for now, so I must work a way to make it reorderable. One possibilty would be to use a quite usual desktop approach:
  1. Let user freely move icons on desktop, limiting him to not take icons out-of-screen.
  2. Allow user to set icons to stay where they are left or to snap to grid.
More to come...
