it's okay. good start. but the clock on the desktop is tiny even at its largest setting. and there are really no particularly attractive clock faces yet. add more interesting and stylish faces and allow us to make the clock the size we want and it will go from just okay to fantastic.

I was just looking to replace the OSX floating analogue clock with something that has a more interesting look – the OSX standard clock is very neutral, boring. But I also really had a problem, because when activating the OSX floating analogue clock the day date disappears from the menu and is not to be shown anywhere. So when I then need to know the actual date, I must start iCal. Well, the OSX digital floating clock never was a choice to me, if the analogue clock just is boring, the digital clock is ugly.

I am glad I found SpeakTime. Now I have a nice looking floating analogue clock (and several more nice design options) including the date. I see the main feature of SpeakTime of course is the audio functionality, but I just do not activate it.

Only one thing is troubeling me: I set the preferences to not show the initial window when startup, but it comes every time - one more window I have to click away. Maybe this will go when I buy a license? Dont know, there is no information about this.

About the price: It's free. For what I need I dont have to buy a license. But I think I will pay it, just because its a great little tool, Thank you, Kenny!

Why do people here talk about iClock? iClock would absolutely not be a solution to me. Does it have nice Clock designs? Nop.
