Yesterday I published an article on new components with background and border gradients of colors, extending HBox, VBox and Box. These components were directly inspired by the GradientCanvas that I created a few month ago.

is the total number of downloads, reached today, for the GradientCanvas component, from version 1.0 to the last one. I’m really proud of this result because 1000 downloads in 7 months (the 1st version has been published the 13th of march) means almost 5 downloads per day. And from my own perspective, at my “dimension”, this is a great performance.
I got lots of good feedbacks and I hope that this component is really helpful and convenient for everybody. Once again, don’t hesitate to send me feedbacks or enhancement ideas (on this component and on everything else actually).
I would be also very happy to post some samples of yours. So if you wish to share your configuration, send it to me and I will post it with a live sample or a link to the site where it can be seen.
