A Clock with Pictures

[parabellum]

Have resolved my Vista problems from other threads, gone back to XP!

I had a good piece of software that showed the earth with daylight/night, various cities could be added etc. etc. anyone know where I can find it please, I have done a fair amount of searching, including Tucows etc. Thanks.

There's a Google one - http://desktop.google.com/plugins/i/daynightclock.html

Thanks for that. Unfortunately it comes down in a .gg format which my stupid machine, (i.e. operator), doesn't seem to be able to convert :ugh:

Perhaps it was the freeware Earth Clock? More info available here (http://earthclock.xentax.com/about.php).



Good Luck!

Thanks for that, not the one I had before but OK!

Here's to finding the original.

Cheers.

Is there a possibility that the original was Vista related? I haven't got it myself, but the new OS appears to come with flashy clocks.

If the link in post #2 is the actual one you are looking for, did you re-install 'Google Desktop' when you went back to XP; it wont work without it (as the link is a Google plug-in)? I'm sorry if that's a statement of the obvious, but sometimes it is just that (!).

The one I use is Mapmaker's SunClock (http://www.mapmaker.com/shadowfacts/sunclock6.asp). I'm not sure if it's what you had before but it works in a similar fashion.

Blue Sky - Yes I thinkl that was the problem, didn't have the tool bar installed! Thanks.

Howling Wind - A great clock, even better than the one I had before! Thanks.
