Well, I’m active on my blog again (this is good).
Anyways, tonights tasks:
- Finish LockWeather’s sleek website and user registration page
- Write up on what’s new in LockWeather v1.3.4
- IPT Database homework
- Mathematics homework :3 :/
So, not too much to do i guess. Anyways, today was probably the first day all year I’ve actually understood the work we’ve done in maths extension. Amazing! Though, thinking about it, today is probably the first proper theory lesson the teacher has done with us, as compared to every other lesson where she gives us an exercise to do, and expects that we know what to do.
Anyways, I’d like to thank Joseph S. for donating to my paypal account. Really appreciated.
If you’re interested in supporting the works that I do, a donation would be appreciated. Keep in mind I am a high school student, in year 11, and still somehow find time to work on these little wonders of projects.

Hello, I’m back!
So to begin with, I’d like to set things straight with the whole SiriProxyGUI scene. Yes. I’ve dropped the project (i’m not even sure if the method works anymore). As I went back to school after the December/January holidays, I had no time to maintain the project. I would have loved to release OSX support, but unfortunately, never really got the chance to package it all up (however, I did make it work). Anyways, I hope that’s set everyone’s questions straight.
So, something new. Last week, I saw someone with a custom lockscreen on their phone (like clock in the direct center), and I thought to myself – “I want something like that. I want my phone to be different”. Anyways, after a few nights lying in bed trying to look for a lockscreen theme, I couldn’t find anything nice looking. (I’m very picky when it comes to designs). Anyways, I decided I would open one up, and see how the theme files run. So, to my surprise, turns out the whole winterboard lockscreen platform runs on HTML/CSS/JavaScript. Now I couldn’t help myself but make something sexy. So anyways, I started from scratch, following the template of the original theme (like folder structure). I made it so the clock was aligned left, slightly from the top, but it didn’t really work with notification center.
From here, LockWeather was born. On a toilet break from programming (yes, all my great ideas come from my toilet breaks. It gives me time to think about the problem ahead), I wondered what would happen if I moved it back up to the original lock screen clock position, so it would play nicely with noficiations. Anyways, everything fitten in nicely, so I was happy. Anyways, building on my idea, I decided that I would add some weather information. It first began with just the current temperature in text and the min max, which then followed into showing an icon. I found a royalty free weather icon pack, which I then based my idea on.

Been making an iPhone/Winterboard lockscreen theme. All HTML/Javascript/CSS. It made my day when I found out WinterBoard takes HTML files. There’s a few screenshots of the latest designs below, more features are coming, and possibly even a preference pane.

It came to my attention about a month ago that there wasn’t something working in the SiriProxy GUI plugin installation guide. Unfortunately, I don’t have a lot of time, and havn’t really touched SiriProxy since I went back to school. Hopefully these holidays coming up, i’ll be able to take a look at it anyways.
If anyone is looking for the plugins guide, I have unpublished it, as I am getting way too many comments on it.

I’ve been busy pretty recently; Back at school, more homework, along with my whole site migration and stuff…
Anyways, I don’t really have much time to release SiriProxyGUI for OSX, but it IS sitting in my Lion VM waiting to be bundled. I’ll try do it if I get some free time this week, otherwise, sometime on the weekend. I’m really looking forward to this release.
Anyways, I’d love to hear how you guys are going. Comment in the section below!

Due to the fact that OSX is really, really durped out, SiriProxyGUI is not going to be controllable from the WebUI. The web UI is only usable to see the status and download the certifcate.

It’s being an absolute bitch. I’m trying to make the Web Interface work, but it’s just not being friends with OSX’s permissions system and allowing the apache user to excecute commands.
