Retro PPC


Retro is a Pocket PC Freeware that adds a skinnable anti-aliased analog clock on your Windows Mobile Today screen.

Features:
Complete skinnability. With Retro skins, you can customize the clock canvas, hands, and their position. You can place the 3 standard moving hands (or more, or less) where you want to, and add other rotating features like an extra dial, etc…
Included skin editor. Retro comes with REdit, a small easy-to-use and useful tool, which you can use to make your own skins or edit third party ones.
Skin flexibility. Skins can have up to 30 independent layers that work just like in Photoshop and other graphics software.
Superior graphics quality. Retro enables flicker-free graphics that blend seamlessly with the background, per-pixel alpha transparency, and anti-aliasing on rotated layers. Retro looks better and is more customizable than alternatives, like non-freeware Spb Clock and MadBeetle Clock Plugin.
Real-time moving hands. Highly optimized code makes it possible to draw the seconds hand in real time with the minimum CPU usage, without making any compromise on the output graphics quality. Retro does not waste precious CPU and battery time when the Today screen is not shown, leaving them to the user.
Easy to use. Copy clock files (”clr” extension) into the Retro directory on your Pocket PC, select your clock skin and configure other basic options from the Today control panel, and you’re ready to go.
Special effects. Retro enables you to create special effects on your clock, like shadows below the hands or near the canvas’ borders, canvas-less or semi-transparent clocks that blend with the features of your Today wallpaper, clocks with glass translucency effects, etc…
