I've been slowly working on a new herp tracking program for the last several months (when I've had time, which isn't always much), and believe I am just about ready to start beta testing it. Just wanted to throw up a few screenshots and see what people think about the layout and main window setup. Basically, it's organized around racks, so you can set everyone up according to where they actually live. If you setup desired feeding intervals, you will also get a feed warning report popup when starting the program (can also call it manually anytime you want). Very easy to move things around and add/delete racks, so very adaptable to future changes. I've also added a progeny calculator to make it easy to plan for future breedings with any of your current animals. No need to manually select all the genes, just pick their name out of the list. Or pick by morph to select all genes at once. There's some reporting and other things that all these programs have. My reasons for writing it are... a) I'm a glutton for punishment, so figured what better way to self-inflict pain than coding for free (haha)... b) I'm cheap, so why pay for something I can do myself ( )... and c) every other program I've tried/used has always had something I didn't like about it or been too buggy for my tastes. So anyway, just sharing now that I almost have something worth sharing. And if anyone would be interested in helping me beta test this beast, just PM me. I've found a few new bugs this morning, but mostly minor ones, so hoping to have them worked out in a week or so (depending on time), and then should be ready for some real banging. Thanks for looking :cheers:
Just want to add that I'm not looking to sell this if it gets to final stage, it'll be freeware, so this isn't an attempt to start a new income stream or anything.
