Give up?

Finding and tweaking progress bars. Why? Because I couldn’t find just what I wanted and couldn’t let it go. Ravelry has a built in widget for tracking what is in my notebook of projects, but it links to my Rav page, which is great if you have an account, not so great when the waiting list was huge or if you just don’t want to have a membership to a yarnie website. It also stays current. For example, if I wanted to show my current knitting progress on my projects listed in Ravelry in this post, it would only be accurate for today, June 11 as long as I never updated my projects again. If say I have 3 projects going right now and currently A is at 20%, B is at 60% and C is waiting to be frogged (ripped out), but next month, A is at 50%, B is finished and C no longer exists. When I update my Ravelry page next month, the progress bars at this page will no reflect the progress I had made. That is because the Rav progress bars are designed to be a current reflection of what I am working on and I can display it in the sidebar. Not what I how like to use them

I present my answer: progress bars.

Please leave comments at this blog post until the progress bars live on a page with comments. If you would like my rendition of progress bars, leave a comment and I’ll send you a zip folder. Be sure that you enter your email address correctly in the comment form. No one but me will see it, I promise, well maybe Zorro will see it but he doesn’t speak human, so it’s not a real concern for ya’, oh and I can’t forget about about Little Guy, but he only rubs on the screen, he doesn’t look at it and the other two, well, no worries there, they don’t seem to like computers.
