(you need flash player to run the sound)
- Thanks ;)
Nice, but you should consider making it in flash. If I enter 5 seconds, it actually took me 12 seconds before I heard the beep :P. Also, I don't think one beep is enough...maybe try to control the PC beep ;)
Making Witch flash?
I could also add a loop to the embedded sound.
EDIT: Loop Added
The loop counter thing, on the sound seem off also, watch it for a while, it sometimes counts in the middle and when it re-starts, giving you 2 counts for 1 sound literally.
Edit: same problem as daevius, although it gets to our time, the refresh can take it's time... meaning it's off.
oh man that IS a very annoying sound!
Consider making a ringing kind of sound, like how edison did with the phone? or maybe something more pleasant, yet still notifying.
ok, im working on developing a way to make the sound and page load faster. (Using a easy flash player) and make a more delighting sound.
Try using Javascript,,,
Well, it should be working better now.
The bells are a bit better.
And i make a loop.swf in flash.
Well, best i can do for now, cause im going on vacation
Nice, I like it now... Almost.
You should make the sound come up in a pop-up (or _blank) Or have a back/continue button so the user isn't encouraged to leave your site after they're done hearing the alarm.
No matter what kind of website you have, it's always a goal to keep the users you have.
Thanks for the cc, and im glad to be back home, i was in Colorado, 20 hrs from home
New Design, With a popup window
BE SURE TO PUT POPUPS OFF!
It doesn't work in Safari Browser... Almost everyone with a Mac uses Safari, so that's actually a problem. I think the browser has a built in pop-up blocker that's not very in-your-face about blocking pop-ups. If I didn't know better, I'd think the space-time continuum was interrupted by your application. lol.. jk
So here's my idea:
Try to make it with 1 format, 1 window, and no redirects.
I came across a cool one of these done in flash.
