Redshift #x

🕖︎ - 2011-09-18

I really like the effect that the small program Redshift has. If I turn it off at night, I am often surprised at how much difference it makes.

I have one gripe with the applet though: The icon for "turned on" is a red lightbulb, which makes me think something is wrong all the time. The turned off state is a blue lightbulb.

I have modified the turned on state to glow yellow instead, and the turned off state to not glow (grey). I think it works a bit better.

Off: Original off icon → Modified off icon
On: Original on icon → Modified on icon

I have chosen to use a more old school method of spam prevention.
