This is a great product that works perfectly with Leopard. I initially had a problem with it, but the developer responded to my email within a couple of hours with a simple fix. The problem was not with the program, but was due to a corrupted prefs file on my end.

I highly recommend this product! :)

I have been using Hourworld since it was originally released and love it. When I initially upgraded to Leopard I had a problem resizing the window. I wrote to the developer, who responded within two hours with an easy fix, and it now works perfectly!

When I first experienced the problem, I wrote a bad review on this site as a draft, then wrote to the developer. When I received such a prompt response with an easy fix, I went to close out the draft post only to find that it had been posted (obviously, I screwed something up).

I promptly hit the "Admin" button and asked them to delete the post, but unfortunately the Versiontracker folks have ignored that request.
