    Great Job. This looks great.
    Is it possible to decrease the polling time lower than 1 minute?
    Is it possible to highlight the bar or make it flash when te information changes, to draw attention to it until it is acknowlegded?

    Thanks,
    Chris

    Ken, I do have an option that enables or disables the ability to move the widget around the screen, it's the 3rd option down in the General section within the widget's properties. If it's Locked then you would need to hold down the "ctrl" key and click to drag the widget around the screen. If you drag the widget around, then close the widget and open it again and it moves from where you put it, then it is probably something with your Yahoo Widget installation.

    Width?

    I'd like to set my own widget width, the fixed one default width is not suitable or me. Some Umlauts are not displayed correctly at the RSS feed from http://www.spiegel.de/schlagzeilen/rss/0,5291,,00.xml
    Color settings for the background are not that intuitive. How do I set a white background?
    Also I'd prefer to have lil button to manually reload the feeds.
    Except for my wishes this widget is quite useful. Very well done!

    TIA, Mac

    Nice...

    Out of all the RSS readers on this site, I liked this one the best! One thing though, well, a feature request: It would be cool if there was a sound notification every time there is an update to one of the feeds.

    Well, thanks for this cool widget!

    Shadow words behind the feed titles

    i like this widget... however, when I turned the background to No Background, I noticed that even though I have it showing the first 5 results, I could see the sixth result very faint behind the fifth one. There were also words faintly behind the other results but I couldn't tell what they were, I assume that it is layering the results on top of each other somehow, or as the results are moved down, when new ones come in, it is not completely un-rendered or something. If I close it and reopen More
