Great widget. However, the image does not refresh into "Today's image" when PC is shut using sleep mode. Image refresh works fine after PC is powered on, but I leave my PC in sleepmode during nights and the image then does not refresh. Would be great if you can fix this.

It's a nice widget with a solid download base.

The problem with the month is probably due to the Date.getMonth() function in JavaScript, which is zero based, that means that January = 0, February = 1, etc. This is just one of those silly JavaScript things. It would be nice to see this corrected in a future update, by displaying Date.getMonth()+1, which should fix the problem.
