Hey,

Author: ffdcsite & DD
Description: This neat little mod will allow you to have quick access to a calculator when post a new thread/reply. It is only a little template mod, but it does require you to upload 2 files.
Preview:Next post.

(Its something a thought of when I need to make a few math calculations and didnt have a calculator handy:D)

EDIT: Added 'Changing the Colours' instruction file. Found one mistake but I have fixed that.

Nice, the popup is a little too "white" though. Maybe we can adjust the colors to the way we choose?

True, but this mod was really for when you were posting something and needed to work something out, and if you are a lazy git like me, you wont want to search through all the program files:p:(:)

Anyway, has anyone had any problems with the instructions for changing the colours? ^.-

On Windows go to Start>Run and type 'calc'

no searching. ;)

I know where mine is, so it's probably even quicker then the method you posted.

Well, it does like like a nice bit of code but kind of unneccesary. unless you run an accounting website or something :p

now, what would really be impressive is if you could make a scientific calc to implement or otherwise add features not found on a standard calculator. Maybe add in a few common equations and formulas allowing the users to fill in some of the variables and have it solve for 'x' or whatever.

this could be a nice addition to an architecture or 3-d CAD/animation type forum.

I see it as a good jumping off point to something alot bigger and better but as it is, it's not worth implementing.
