Beautiful Widget Skin Download - Doesn't Work!

[billyk]

I've been a BW user since yesterday. I really like it.

Today I tried to browse and download skins. I chose the "Skin" function, selected "Download", selected two skins which downloaded (I recall being asked if it's OK to download to the SD card) and all seemed well.

Then I went to choose a skin. Here's what I found:
- There are no downloaded skins available in the list
- When I try to download them again, BW tries to load the list of skins off the server, it processes for about 30 seconds and then the "Loading..." message goes away and there is no list.

I dumped cash for the Download and Market apps, and then restarted. No dice. Any ideas?

Geez, I just went to the LevelUp Studio site to, developers of Beautiful Widgets, to let them know that I found a glitch in their app and their entire site is down.

I might have found the answer if they host their files off of that site.

Do you have twitter? I've found that to be the best way to ask questions and get answers. His twitter account is levelupstudio if you're interested.

Not a Twitter user, but thanks for the heads-up.

I'll just wait until the site is back up. The SQL error is "too many connections". So, I'd guess that it'll be back up soon.

Maybe the outage has something to do with our upcoming surprise.

To the OP - fear not BW is a great app with a great dev. He will get it working for you.

I hope this wasn't the surprise!

There was an update to BW today. There is now a slider to determine the transparency of the background. Evidently you can now make any skin naked if you want to. While that may not be the surprise, it is different.

And much appreciated.

billyK,

Server is back up, try it again. Worked fine for me just before typing this.

Works perfectly.

Thanks everybody!
