Screenshots of WinPET 2.5.5 (more)

I’m hoping to release this new version of WinPET very soon, but I dont want to miss anything, since this will be the last WinPET release for a long time. I’ll still be listening to suggestions in the forums for a little while longer, in case there is anything else I can improve.

2.5.5 Updates

  • 6 shortcuts avaliable from the home screen.
  • New menu shortcuts on the home screen
  • Increased menu scroll speed. ( +50% )
  • Quickman, Shademan, Medi, Colonel and Tomahawkman

WinPET 2.5.5

August 23, 2008

I will be releasing another version of WinPET some time over the next few weeks. This will be the final version of WinPET, and after this, I will be moving on to other projects.

WinPET 2.5.5 wont be a major improvement, but there are a few more things I need to improve, and the new home screen will have more shortcut buttons to some of the main menu features. The scrolling speed of the menus will also be improved.

Japanese Video

WinPET 2.0.5 is almost ready for release. I have finished working on the extra Windows Vista features. I have translated most of it to Japanese, but i’m leaving the english descriptions in the menu.

Note: Japanese WinPET is now fully translated

Japanese WinPET?

August 8, 2008

The current version of Windows PET does not work properly on the japanese version of Windows. I will release a japanese version of Windows PET shortly after the English version.

ペットの現在のバージョンのWindowsが正常に動作しなかったは、日本のバージョンのWindowsをします。私は日本語版のWindowsを発売するペットの直後に英語版です。

WinPET 2.0.4

8月15日

August 15th. For windows Vista and XP

A few Icon changes. The Internet shortcut on the home screen is now ‘Search’, which i think people will want to use more, and saves a click in the internet menu. I added the Windows XP address book to the main menu although I dont think anyone uses it. In the Vista version, there will be shortcuts to Contacts and Calender in the main menu. Im sure more people use these features on Windows Vista than XP.

Microsoft Office

August 6, 2008

New MS Office launcher. You can choose either 2003 or 2007.

New Colour

August 5, 2008

I just added Amber to the Colour list. There are now 15 colours to choose from. Also, I made the yellow more vivid. I won’t adding anymore colours for a while, and I’ve started adding the Vista features. This won’t take very long, and I should be done before the 15th of August. I’ll continue to add more features in future after the release.

WinPET Video

This video shows a few of the Features included in WinPET and the new sliding menus.

I am still thinking about adding a few features to the Windows XP version before i get started on Vista. I might add a Microsoft office folder and maybe some more links. If you have any Questions or suggestions please comment or send me an E-Mail.

Once again, Thanks for recording and uploading the video, DarkKittenGamer!

Welcome!

Welcome to the WinPET Blog. This blog will answer questions on the WinPET program, which I will be releasing shortly. I’ll start with a bit of info on the program. It’s basically an app launcher with a Megaman Net navi on the front. PET stands for ‘PErsonal Terminal’, which is a PDA-like device used in the megaman series.

Features

  • Save up to 12 program/web shortcuts
  • Quick access to popular E-Mail sites
  • Search Google, Ask.com, Windows Live, Yahoo, Youtube and Wikipedia
  • Shortcuts to IM clients and browsers
  • CD Player
  • Skinnable interface and color change
  • 16 Different Net-Navi
  • Access to useful System tools
  • Control Panel

WinPET will be released for Windows Vista and XP separately, since there are compatibility issues. WinPET Vista will include shortcuts to the features exclusive to Windows Vista.

I sent the program to DarkKittenGamer to test last week, and he recorded and uploaded a Video of the program. Since the video was uploaded, i have made many changes to the program. I have replaced the static menus with sliding menus and added a few new features.
