A ideia é interessante, no entanto a gestão das definições é fraca, não conseguindo alterar a localização, aparece Barcelona por defeito, não se conseguindo fazer a gestão das horas ou das aplicação favoritas. Muito a melhorar

This extension is still in Beta phase, apparently, and it was back in June when this was last updated, so all I will leave are helpful hints as to changes the creators might make.

One, I suggest you create a more obvious way of changing the settings, even if it's just a "gear" icon in the lower corner. Yes, the sliding panel looks cool, but some of us need something more obvious when starting with something they've never worked with before--especially at 7 AM when we haven't had coffee yet. LOL! ;-P

Secondly, I'd love to see a way of expanding the side panel, or changing that side panel's orientation at the very least. Some people like having panels like that on the left side. I'm one of 'em. ;-)

Thirdly, instead of changing the overall size of the side panel in order to change the size of the font as a whole, you might try allowing for users to change just the font size in the note-taking widget. The font size of the weather info is plenty big enough. It's the size in the note-taking widget that's an issue.

Fourthly, if there was a section in the "settings slide-out panel" for adjusting/adding "most visited" sites, or a widget for that purpose, I didn't see it. So you might want to make that more obvious as well. Visual icons are fine, but many of us are verbally oriented, so we kinda wanna have written descriptions of which thing does what, even if it's just alt-text bars.

All this said...I do love the animated raindrop effect, as well as the ability to "favorite" certain photos. I'd love to know how to submit my own, as I love taking nature photos. So having that kind of option as a link to a submission page would be great!

Make the above changes and I'll definitely come back around. Until then, I'm gonna have to switch to another NewTab extension. I look forward to whatever else you guys have in mind.
