Just to mention that the gear needs some attention to work at this size (in layout-3), you loose much detail because it's so subtle and it gains a much more pronounced outline which gives it something of a cartoonish look (more like my first attempts ;-)

Pardon me for jumping in, but I think that retaining two widgets for the sample feature is a very bad idea. Your pardoned, but your more than welcome to jump in :D I don't think one solution, in such an open ended situation, is possible. each option has pros and cons I may want to output a

I was a bit torn in views here, but I see your point. It appears as quite a different element, similarly if you were to create an auto complete widget (combo-box style) I wouldn't expect that to be an option of widgets.SelectTextBox. The way I see it widgets are not a way to create (x)html tags

There no reason to put it in tg-admin (it's not a package manager) when we have easy_install. :-) Good point, I was merely thinking as to how integrated it would be to turbogears rather than independent apps. However, I think something like this could be integrated into the Toolbox.

Looks like a good idea, well done. Perhaps this is something that could be built into turbogears? Text default - for those pitiful few that can not read html email, I would like to produce text. Some of us *choose* to view only text in our e-mail clients!

Hi Jeremy, I should think this would be a popular application. I believe, like toolbox applications, you can just distribute your app and allow people to plug-in to it. I was wondering if this might be something that might have enough general appeal for inclusion in TG I don't think it's

If I'm looking at it correctly, the user has 2 options: Set 3 seperate dropdowns or use the graphical calendar. For data entry applications this is terrible. I see your point. I thought it was quite user friendly - I wasn't looking at it from that point of view. well could we have have two

A quick play with an idea [1]. The yellow on blue reminds me of something else, but I can't think what right now - just so you know I didn't intentionally rip of someone else's colour scheme. I'm also a little unsure about the lack of colour generally - seen as the gear and blue splash bar
