Savings meter

by Matthew Dent

A Widget to visually show how far you've saved towards something and how far you've got to go. Useful if you're saving up for something that will cost a lot and you want to visually track how much you have left to go and how much you already have (e.g. if you were saving for a Mac or something).

Features:
- Ability to choose a custom image for the left of the Widget
- Ability to change the text at the top (what you're saving for)
- Handy context menu options to add to/remove fr More

    Finally... have been waiting for that 1.1 thanks Matthew! Was beginning to think that they were never going to process that new version. The additions are good to have, made mine orange.

    Just a minor request when you are ready to release another version could you add the ability to change the "meter" colors, mostly just the green that shows how much is saved/paid... thanks!

    Very nice. The only sugestion I have is to make even smaller (ie. less space in between the lines and especially the image size) so you can fit it better on the screen.

I'm not sure how you're getting a number with more than two decimal points from what should be simple subtraction, but if it's proving to be a problem to make the subtraction happen right, could you somehow just round the $ left display to two decimal places?

    I know about the progress bar going over the edge when you're at 100%, this is fixed in the next version, but they're being very slow about updating it, it would seem. But changing the colour is a good suggestion actually, I added it for if, for some reason, you go below zero, but not when you hit your goal. I'll most likely add that when I get a chance
