counters

A kind soul (Hosein-LS from linuxshare.org) pointed out to me that this persian KDE wiki page has some wickedly cool looking Release Counters:

Two pretty pics:
KDE SC 4.4 Release Counter

KDE SC 4.4 Release Counter

Basically, the text could probably be improved, probably using our 'be free' slogan, saying X days to release of KDE SC 4.4 and Be Free with KDE SC 4.4 or something. But we'll surely rock anyone with the new release ;-)

Either way, I don't know anything else about who did this besides the fact they DID - as I don't read farsi/persian, but I do wanna say: you guys and girls rock, please rock on!

(and do send me an email and get in contact, esp if you plan on doing more stuff like this hehe. google will tell you my email as I'm horribly uncarefull with it)

  4. can somebody sum up why 4.4 is a such a "great" release? I tested it recently and I didn't encounter that much changes, it's still the same as 4.3, no improvement in the user experience, from what I've seen. Please enlighten me, why should I be excited, from a 4.3 user's point of view?

  6. Now I saw all those reviews. Things like no borders and all that other stuff just can't get me excited.

  7. Very nice work. And a nice find as well. If cleaned up a bit, there are many places we could use these, including our own personal blogs and also maybe on the Planet.

  8. gosh this community is small ;-)

    I'm a huge chakra fan as it has saved my ass many times and is doing that right now - I wouldn't be able to write any of the articles like those currently on the dot. Will contact you, Roozbeh!
