      Hi Guys,

      First Post… (Habitual Lurker)

      I have been working on resurrecting the existing Widescreen and making improvements to it.

      I am what you could call a jack of all trades, but master of none.   I'm not a developer, but I have been hobby coding for about 20 years, I am just slow and have to reference EVERYTHING.  I am a network engineer by trade.

      Send me a PM if you wanna help QC .. maybe just one or two people to give feedback.. Preferably someone like JimP or a regular contributor to the project would be best before I let it loose on everyone.  All of the new 2.x features should work, and stuff like the CSRF fixed should work.

      I made a point to fix a lot of things that bothered me from the old Widescreen Package.

      I'll do a pull request if people can't shoot any holes in my work.

      Cheers!

              Once its done to my own and others satisfaction, and If everything checks out, I have BIG plans for that $20 as a donation to pfSense.

                        Now THAT's widescreen!  Yep, let me know how the bounty works and I'm in for $20 when package ships.

                          If you open the zip you will see the www folder, that should go into /usr/local/www, the subfolders are already laid out in the same manner they go on the drive.

                          Back up your originals just in case you find something important that doesnt work, you dont have to worry about backing the images up, they are additive and dont overwrite anything.

                          Here is the zip file build from the 2.0.3 release if you want to try it out and let me know how it works.

                            does it work on both versions? 2.0.x and 2.1?

                              Try it out Marcello! It works on 2.0.x for me. Hasnt done testing on 2.1 yet.

                                Given the large number of changes to the all.css file on 2.1 I doubt it will work there without a separate version of the package.

                                At least this one doesn't stomp on the menu… :-)

                                  Can you make a dedicated 2.0.x package and then modify the next one to be 2.1 compliant Jim??

                                  Just so we can begin to DL it directly from packages ?

                                    I can help on 2.0.x as the zip looks like almost done.

                                      Shouldn't be too hard to make, I just lack the time to do it. The tags can be set to allow it to only be shown on 2.0.x, so that's not a problem.

                                        Can we get it going then?

                                        It would be a very nice addition to the GUI.

                                          EDIT

                                          First screenshot shows 2.0.3 and second 2.1  ???

                                          Supermule, on what version did you applied the version?
