Wow! Great app! Are you in the field or just an enthusiast like myself? Either way, excellent app! One minor issue/suggestion: navigation is a little difficult compared to Solar Explorer (the other great space app ) Keep up the great work! Looking forward to new additions...

Awesome work,thanks a lot you're the man

Thanks for the links !
And I'm an enthusiast, I was always fascinated in almost everything beyound our planet .
What do you mean with navigation is a little bit difficult, what would you change?

It's fine actually. I was just a little unfamiliar with the menus because of being so used to Solar Explorer and its on screen menus. Now that I have played with it a bit more... the way your app is laid out... it allows for more screen real estate for phones. The images look better that way. As far as content, your app is way more thorough than most.

Ah ok.
But the UI is one thing I will change in the future for sure because using Androids standard menus is easier to implement but also brings some disadvantages.
Have you seen the "Quick controls" which you can enable for the standard browser ("Labs" section) and which can be displayed when sliding the thumb from the left or right edge? That's the way I'm going to implement my "next generation" UI .

Great app, I have many astro apps but yours is really fantastic!

Hey, your App broke the glass of my tablet :laugh:.
Are there more of these jokes in your App?

Hehehehehe! I haven't found anymore easter eggs.... yet! HINT: If you do it a bit slower... it just bounces with a metallic sound. Do it more quickly and it breaks

[APP][4.0+] GMDYO Launcher (Free) 1.2

GMDYO -> GO Make Dis Your Own Launcher (Free) 1.2
This is an alternative launcher as compared to the various launchers on the market. Given the capabilities of the Android system, we felt that more should have been done to improve the user experience. Thus we are doing this differently compared to current launchers available on the market right now. However, in order to ensure that we are able to cater to all of the needs of the users, we are releasing it as we develop it along the way.
Please do let us know what are the things that
- we are doing right
- what needs to be corrected or improved
- what features you want to see in the future releases
- overall are we heading in the right direction
NOTE :
This app is a work in progress and there might be bugs present. Currently, you can get out of the launcher just by pressing the "BACK" key on your mobile. This is done on purpose as we feel that its still too early for it to be a user's daily work horse and more suited to be a showcase instead.
More features are in the pipeline so do expect updates
If you do notice, we do have another version of GMDYO which is paid. However, please do note that there is NO DIFFERENCE between the PAID and FREE version. The reason we came out with two versions is because we feel that not all might want to get the paid version upfront to support the development and we did not like the idea of putting ads in the app and ruin the whole experience and thus, we decided to do it this way. If you can and feel that the app is worth your time, please do help by either getting the paid version or the free version. Do feedback to us anything that you feel that can be improved.
As I'm are currently under 10 posts, I'm unable to post the link to the app. However, a search in Play Store with "gmdyo" should be able to find the app. Will try and hit the target to 10 posts asap. Sorry for any inconvenience caused.
Thanks for your time!

Sounds interesting, hope you do a good job with it.

This post was pulled out of my arse.

suggestions (maybe)
thx for this innovative new style of a launcher!
i have some ideas that would be cool for that kind of concept:
do you know lightning launcher and its way of not using a grid but some infinite desktop space?
if not, take a look at it, it's free in the market.
now think, wouldn't that be a cool addition to the concept of gmdyo?
the creation of much more intense "cities" would be possible and that would enrichen the experience quite a lot.
another idea would be making gmdyo a 3d thing, but honestly, i have no idea how to navigate that thing if it would be 3d...
anyway, thx for bringing up something innovative and new!
greetz and keep up the good work,

Did tried out Lightning Launcher. Think its a great concept with the infinite space! We are planning to integrate more features into GMDYO, 3D is definitely in the brainstorming stage but as we are concurrently doing development for other projects, so progress might be abit slow. Do look out for our other apps as we launch them!
Once again, thanks for your feedback and have a nice day!

[APP][2.2+] Tippy [Fancy Holo Calculator]

Hey guys, I've been on these forums for a little while leeching and contributing when i can, but i decided that i wanted to learn how to develop, so... without further ado here is my my first gateway app to developing:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gmail.orrett3.tippypro
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gmail.orrett3.tippy
Tippy Pro (Tip Calculator)
Tippy (Tip Calculator)
Description:
Tippy is a simple, easy to use, tip calculator that is compatible with android 2.2+
When you go to a restaurant or diner simply whip out your phone and put in the amount of your bill and pick a percentage 10%/15%/20% or use the slider to pick a percent, and your tip amount will be displayed along with your total bill, it's that easy!
Now you can also split your bill with your friends, WITH! or WITHOUT! tax! **Win!**
Soon to come:
* Save previous tip queries
* and more...
Update! ! !
Again, just uploaded and it should be up in a little bit
v1.2
* New settings page to customize the app a little bit
* In the settings menu, you can now set a tax percentage. (default: 0% tax)
* Don't like my introduction page? Its cool, disable it in the settings.
v1.1
* Now you can split your check into itty.. bitty...pieces!
* Fancy new tip percentage slider!
v1.01
* Minor fixes
v1.0
* Holo theme Android 4.0+
* Simple UI
free to criticize here and add some suggestions on how i could make it better.
Eventually i will make my way over to baking roms/kernels and much more. (I do have a small background in c/c++)

Its nice. Not that calculating 10-20% of an amount is all that difficult. But in future builds make a slider where tip amount can be selected.
Also there was some text overlapping on my phone. (Xperia tipo). And more currency units will be helpful.
Nice job though

The free version has ads, the paid does not...in the future there will be differences between the 2

Just uploaded version 1.2 with the option to stop showing my little intro screen and you are now able to set a tax rate thats automatically calculated into your tip and total.

nice job keep working on it

Great UI
