Yesterday I talked about the WindowBlinds tutorials by SK Originals and held them up as a great example of how to write help content for the Wiki.  But that tutorial is for the visual artist.  What if you're a code monkey trying to make a desktop gadget?  Sure there's art involved, but there's a lot of coding too, and that takes a completely different sort of tutorial.  Pictures illustrating steps help, but they're not the whole story.  You need code examples, and writing code that's understandable and being able to explain it in plain English is a rare talent.

So today we're shining the limelight of attention on sViz and her DesktopX tutorials.  Specifically DesktopX: Scripting Time Displays (Beginner)

sViz is one of our most active contributors to the Wiki and a wealth of knowledge when it comes to DesktopX.  Her tutorials are well documented and clearly explained.  With the Time Displays tutorial, it takes you through the process of adding a time display to a DesktopX widget/gadget from start to finish.  And this is only one out of many tutorials she's contributed to the site.
