So, I'm embarassed to admit that I spent about 5 minutes just middle clicking my desktop and watching the orb slide around. hehe Its speed is faster over long distances, and slower on short ones. I had a look in the script but didn't see anything unusual for that. I guess that's just a natural effect using "10 1" for the animation? I've never noticed that before...

Minimal themes aren't my thing, but you just have to love that little orb. :D

One small problem: middle clicking near the left and/or top of the desktop returns a negative value for the orb's x/y, sending it to the opposite side of the screen. Easy to fix, of course. :)
hehe, yeah, there are some glitches here and there, but i wanted to release something :P
glad you liked it :D

excellent theme! I would suggest adding a readme of the features, or slowing down the images above..took me 3 or 4 times to catch the part about the middle click command :) Much improved over the early orbs of the past... :)
hehe, i'll add a propper readme in the next update :D

As the clock piece moves, the label will not always redraw itself, so there are trailing pieces of the little dot. !labelshow on each move should fix this.

Finally, the little dot sometimes pokes out of the black border of the orb itself. Why not use an alpha mapped image for the dot, docked to the orb itself, and behind it?

After some sleep, I'll dig into it. Looks good so far. You even managed to use a font that is easily readable (which is often not done, for reasons of style, when making itsy-bitsy popups).
