AjaxLife imagery

AjaxLife login image

This image, currently used on AjaxLife’s login page, would appear to now be explicitly forbidden. Short of just removing it entirely, anyone feel like coming up with a legal alternative that can go on the top-right of the login screen?

[RESOLVED] AjaxLife blocked again

We seem to be blocked again. I’m assuming this is a general libsl block.

Grr.

And now we’re fine.

AjaxLife 0.3.0 release notes

AjaxLife 0.3.0 is up now. Yay!

Here are some release notes:

  • Inventory window is fifty pixels wider by default
  • Inventory has a context menu
  • Inventory items can be renamed (but folders can’t)
  • Inventory folders and items can be moved to trash and/or purged
  • The trash can be emptied
  • Folders can be created
  • Properties window for inventory items (read-only for now)
  • “Copy UUID” option on inventory items (if you have full permissions) – copies directly to clipboard in IE, opens a dialog with the UUID pre-selected in everything else.
  • Inventory items show their permissions on mouseover
  • Addition of keyboard shortcuts (same as those used in SL):
    • Ctrl-Q logs you out
    • Ctrl-T opens the IM window
    • Ctrl-I opens inventory
    • Ctrl-H opens the chat window
    • Ctrl-M opens the map
    • Ctrl-Shift-1 opens the stats window
    • Ctrl and Command/Apple are interchangeable under Safari
  • When used in Fluid with Growl installed, Growl notifications are shown for certain events
  • Bugfix: friend lists will no longer display a list of nulls or blanks
  • Bugfix: The map window’s “Focus on target” button now actually focuses the target, not your position as of inital login

You can see some screenshots of the new inventory stuff in my earlier post.

I hope you like it. :D

[COMPLETE] AjaxLife down for maintenance

[01:33 GMT] Open again!

[01:26 GMT] Running the startup scripts. AjaxLife will reopen itself when the script has finished (in about ten minutes).

[01:06 GMT] Problem resolved. Deploying new server. Going to get a drink as well; this script takes a while.

[00:42 GMT] Hit a problem in testing that didn’t (and continues to refuse to) appear in the preview environment.

[00:27 GMT] Logins are disabled.

AjaxLife will be down for an upgrade to version 0.3 shortly. Please be patient. And such.

Coming soon to AjaxLife

So, I’ve been semi-busily working on AjaxLife, and spending the rest of my time revising for insanely large numbers of tests. It must be report writing time.

Anyway, we have new features to come to you all shortly, most of which are inventory related:

Hovertips:
AjaxLife inventory hovertips

Context menus:
Folder context menu

Item context menu

Trash context menu

And, for those of you who use OS X and Fluid (the latest version, that is), we can do this:
AjaxLife growls

This’ll be released as soon as that “Properties” button works.

[RE-RE-RESOLVED] AjaxLife banned by Linden Lab

[19:17 GMT, 3/3/08] And we’re unblocked!

[18:54 GMT, 3/3/08] And we’re blocked again! :(

[20:15 GMT, Wednesday] And it’s unblocked again. Theory: it’s blocked between 6 and 8pm GMT.

[18:32 GMT, Wednesday] And it’s blocked again. Please, make up your mind?

[20:37 GMT] Okay, no idea what happened, but it seems to be back now… fingers crossed.

There appears to be an IP ban on AjaxLife’s login proxy (which is needed to fix issues with LL’s login server). As such, the service is down until further notice. I have no idea why Linden Lab have decided to close AjaxLife.

I have no idea if this is temporary, accidental, intentional, etc.

German AjaxLife

Hot on the heels of Spanish, we now have German as well! Hooray!

Seems to be translation week. Anyone else up for doing one? :P

Spanish Ajaxlife

Spanish has now joined Brazilian Portuguese, Hebrew and Japanese as a language supported by AjaxLife’s interface. If your computer is set to Spanish, you should find that AjaxLife’s login screen (at least, the lower half) is in Spanish when you look at it.

Have fun, Spanish-speaking people!

Oh, as an aside, the Hebrew translation is now right-to-left instead of left-to-right.
