A New Contact App & A New Library Were Born !
« on: May 28, 2006, 08:48:48 am »
Hello everybody, I need to show you something
I am currently working on a new library (SLib) for Linux.
His main goal is to give access to GFX component (Checkbox, Button, Label, Listbox, ...) under Linux.
I know many other lib do it, but mine will be small and compatible on all linux system who have X and only X. (No need, sdl or GTK or QT nothing)

So in order to test it I wrote a Contact application.
For the moment this contact app can only read from a csv file all your contact and display them to screen  lol
But I have a small problem and that's why I post here ... I need a designer in order to help me
I need to add gfx elements in order to make a beautiful application.
I add a screenshot of current version (You can see that interface design is not so good  )
So please if you think you can help me please drop me a line at : snoogie@free.fr
Thanks for your help

PS : Sorry for my broken english I am french
