GTK Flame Effect

The oh-so-old plasma flame effect. Run this GTK application standalone or plug it into your gnome pannel.

This GTK application resembles the great and oh so old plasma flame effect.

It’s inspired by code from Carsten Heitzler aka Rasterman. There is a colorchooser dialog and much more. The GUI is done with Glade.

You can have your gflame standalone or plug it into your gnome panel (Thanks to Jens Finke).

Screenshots

The first screenshot (left) shows gflame stacked upon my beloved gkrellm. The second (top right) and third (bottom right) screenshot show the configuration and about dialog. The last screenshot show a bigger gflame window with somewhat acid colors.

The GFlame Project ist listed on Freshmeat.

Cynthia Smidt of Software.Linux.com wrote a kind review of gflame which got lost when that site relaunched. GFlame apperently won an award and was listed with the Best Of Linux archive too.
