Finally, I manage to find some time to churn out Icicle V0.2, Apollo Edition ;)
About Icicle: Icicle is a desktop application powered by Apollo and Actionscript 3.0. Its a pure actionscript project (no mxml) that utilizes box.net api to allow users to access their box.net online files from their desktop. Currently, Icicle is in version 0.2 and supports the following operation:
1) Uploading of files/multiple files
2) Downloading of files
3) Rename/Delete/Move of files
4) Searching (via tag)
5) Adding/Removing/Editing of tags
6) Creation/Delete/Move of folders
Using Icicle, you interact your files around by 'tossing' them around.
With V0.2, I added the following functionality:
Transparency support using Apollo.
You can close /drag the application using the upper right hand corner controls
Look ma, my files are the same as my desk!
minimized mode. When Icicle is minimize, you will see a little small 'mini icicle' button near your system tray. Double click this to maximize Icicle. When Apollo adds drag and drop support, I will allow users to drop files onto the 'mini icicle' to easily upload files. ;)
Thanks to Darukusan for being my QA tester until this version.
