    Description: It's a mod for BigClock(Marclandis), that does visual enchantments. Numbers fades to non-existence:) Also i used the codes from BatteryMeter(gbd951).

    Features:
    - It is the same clock from BigClock applet, but when one of the digit changes, old digit fades downwards. Pictures can't show all the work - just try it:)
    - When you tap any area of the applet, a small battery meter will show up and then it fades after 8 seconds.
    - This is for QVGA. (-update-)(VGA version is online. thanks looby.)

    I wanted a simple and good-looking clock, so here it is. Hope you like it.

    -UPDATE-10.05.2009 FadeClockv2
    - Bug fix : now showing the digits correctly, when displaying the hour as a single digit.
    - Added 12h format. Just select the appropriate format from windows' regional settings.
    - Added a small fade animation. The new digit also fades in (last pic).
    - When you click and hold any area of applet, windows' clock and alarm setting will be shown.
    - QVGA and VGA versions available, but as always, i couldn't test vga version - i don't have one ;)

    - UPDATE - 16 May 2009 FadeClock v2.5
    - New battery meter : Added a nice battery meter. It shows a "filling" animation when charging. To view the percentage, tap on it.
    - Added a regular signal strength meter.
    - As requested, alarm notification added. To adjust alarms, click and hold the time.
    - QVGA and VGA supported.

    - UPDATE - 12 June 2009 FadeClock v2.8
    - It's just a small update(battery image changed).
    - Both v2.5 and v2.8 work with Home(v2.1).

    Nice work on the fading digits

    If you can, please upload the cs file so that the battery is permanent.

    This is really original and lovely. Works a treat on my Diamond. All it needs to make it perfect for VGA is to move the battery icon down a touch. Excellent work.

    hey guys, the fading of numbers is a good idea. In battery meter, the battery shape is ok but numbers aren't showing (omnia, wqvga). any idea?

    good work sinofthegod...

    It flips after 23:59 hrs till 9:59 hrs. Likely it can't handle the single digit hours or something?

    @rubenmartin and piyopiyo81 : for batterymeter, i used the same code from Battery Meter applet. can you try that applet if it works on your device?

    @daanb : i tested it on my pda(htc touch) and my smartphone, but that kind of bug, you mentioned, didn't show up. it always show the animation in my case. if i can recreate you problem, i will let you know ;)

    @looby: i don't have a vga device, but you can try to adjust those numbers in .cs file in order to find the suitable location for the batterymeter in your vga device.

    m=j/2;
    m-=15;
    n=k/2;
    n+=65;

    a=j/2;
    a-=24;
    b=k/2;
    b+=37;

    try to increase/decrease m,n,a,b variables. a,b are for battery image, and m,n are for battery text. hope it helps :)

    Awesome work, is there anyway to add alarm function. Maybe like click and hold on the time to open up the alarm app. Not a big deal, just something that i think would be nice.

    the problem is font preference of pointui. if you choose GDI, it doesn't show anything also in battery meter applet. after returning back to bitmap font, it works.

    If you add these Icons to your VGA FadeClock in your first post it will make it complete.

    sinofthegod, works great with VGA on Diamond (see pic). I think the possibilties with this app are only just tapped. Brilliant and inventive. Some form of alarm integration showing the time alarm is set to in the future would be the icing on the cake. Many thanks for your work.

    to get battery status text with GDI font u have to set label height in line 377 in .cs:
    original: pDisplay.SetBounds(m,n,j);
    change to: pDisplay.SetBounds(m,n,j,40);
