    Little-known software you can't live without.

    Is there any nearly unknown software you use a lot that you absolutely can't live without? I browse download.com once in a while and I occasionally come across something that kicks major ass. I personally use "TrayClip" from http://www.chtsoft.com/TrayClip.htm

    Since I am a programmer, I have a few snippets of code that I frequently use. TrayClip allows me to keep all the snippets of code organized so I can paste them in easily. It also keeps track of the last X number of items that were in your clipboard so you can easily paste them again if necessary. I couldn't live without this little program.
    I like pie.

        I've been looking for something like that, thanks Armed & Hammered!!

        Here's one for you, it's a little app that grabs any color from a page and tells you the hex code for it, I use it all the time

        enjoy ;)

          Its worth checking out those sites on occassion. You can find some pretty neat stuff like that. Other things are useless for the most part but still fun to play with.

              Flash Renamer 4.6

              http://www.rlvision.com/flashren/about.asp


              I deal with a lot of renaming of clips, pictures, html files, folders, etc....

              This does it all, from random naming, to enumerating, adding, cropping.

              This program is a serious life savor and works with folders as well...

              For people that do a lot of free hosted stuff,.. like we do. This is a must have!

                UltraMon

                A must-have for dual-monitor setups. Allows you to have the task bar spread to both screens and adds two buttons to the menu that let you move windows between the screens or maximize them to both screens.
                I couldn't possibly know what I'm talking about, I'm completely, absolutely and definitively out of my fucking mind.

                    not the same thing.. this tells you exactly what hex code a color is just by grabbing it from the page. Say for example, you wanted to use some colors that you saw in a picture you liked, or better still need to match a background color to an image

                    download it and try it.. you'll see what I mean, its a great little tool

                                        I use this one:

                                        http://66.235.6.212/phpcsl/index.php

                                        A php based code repository. I can get it from anywhere and share it with people.
                                        SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.

                                                  Here's one for you, it's a little app that grabs any color from a page and tells you the hex code for it, I use it all the time

                                                  enjoy ;)

                                                                                  Try MultiMon instead.... freeware.

                                                                                    http://www.teamcti.com/trayit/trayit.htm

                                                                                    TrayIt! allows to save precious Taskbar space for minimized windows. For each application which applies TrayIt! it creates a small icon in the System Tray. (System Tray area is located near the Clock). When application's window is minimized this icon represents the application on the Taskbar instead of the regular "minimized rectangle".

                                                                                    It is particularly useful for background tasks you typically keep running on your PC all day long like your favorite E-mail client, Real Player, etc.

                                                                                          This does it all, from random naming, to enumerating, adding, cropping.

                                                                                          This program is a serious life savor and works with folders as well...

                                                                                          For people that do a lot of free hosted stuff,.. like we do. This is a must have!

                                                                                            I've been using it for over 3 years now; I am way more productive when I use a PC with it installed. There are hundreds of custom GUIs you can download, I use a Gnome theme. The things I find most useful are 1) launching apps with keyboard shortcuts and 2) the virtual desktop interface which simulates 4 desktop spaces/screens that I can quickly switch back and forth between. I don't know what I'd do without it.

Increases your productivity immensely because you don't have to spend time searching for them on your PC.

                                                                                                Program is FreeWare. Note if you install you may need to download a 2nd file called support.exe if you use MS Office. This adds a .dll that the program needs in office.

                                                                                                  http://www.teamcti.com/trayit/trayit.htm

For each application which applies TrayIt! it creates a small icon in the System Tray. (System Tray area is located near the Clock). When application's window is minimized this icon represents the application on the Taskbar instead of the regular "minimized rectangle".

                                                                                                  It is particularly useful for background tasks you typically keep running on your PC all day long like your favorite E-mail client, Real Player, etc.
