Hi,

of course I accept your minds.
But I have not though about some "big money"
but only about a few bugs for full-features version
because people take care if spend just $20 oposite to if got some free.
If you still stay to give it free...

Any way I still interest to work about
scripting, skinning,
and provide international (English) site of Mascot.
(better: Pocket Mascot then Minute... I think).

if you give me permission.

I think the programm could be:

1.load a collection of sound files like images
and next in the line of animation it could use additional parameters which
file of sound to start to play

for example:
#4,200,15,xx,99:99,s4,s7 where xx is a number of sound previously designed
(if ommnitted that no sound is using)

2. tapping and double-tapping into visible image of mascot will activate:
tapping - run immediately animation #0
double-tapping - run setup window
but icon on task bar will bring: tapping - hide/show mascot
double-tapping - stop/start script and all actions (maybe with change of
icon to for better indicating of status)

it allows user to quickly "present" what mascot can if some friend looks
into screen

4. add parameters of internal timer for actual day, month and year %dd %mm
%yy


I think the programm must work invisible as default and showing certain
animations only with scripting time or some randomized time. It will be more
convenience to keep the progam all time working "hidden".

Att. a screen from my first mascot scripting for randomized action
it uses two images of ballons for speaking and for thinking

also...I found that if I enlarge main size width more then 164px
that images are displayed corrupted. Some bug?
Height works without any limits fine.
