    Svaka čast na trudu, ali malo mi je čudno da prikazuješ samo srednji tečaj, a ne kupovni i prodajni.

    Nice, have been using it since first version :)

    Suggestion, instead of putting flag PNGs in the skin folder, why not use thumbs folder? Installer will be smaller and no files will be duplicated..

    Also, what Mikeyy said :)

    I'm displaying only middle rate because I didn't want to have too many columns and numbers displayed, and besides every bank has slightly different rate. But if you really need all three rates I could include it in new version.

    Regarding installer I just started to use new MpeMaker, will check if it's possible to include one image file and install it in different skins.

    Hey cane, how is it going?

    I just wanted to bump this, would be nice to have the other two rates :)

    Also, would it be possible for you to scrap the rates from more banks (ZABA / PBZ) and have ability to choose them from the menu (context or normal menu)?

    Great job on our "local" plugins, nice to see them in MePo! :)

    It's going great, thanks for asking ;)

    Currently I'm working on three day forecast for meteo.hr. Scraper is done, still to do menus and skin files. I hope that you are still willing to help me with skins?

    After meteo.hr is done I'll deal with this other two rates. Regarding getting data from other banks I'm not interested in making it, it would take too much work. I'll rather spend time on some other plugin (I have some ideas on my mind).

    I'll send you PM when plugin will be in usable state.
    Since only I am developing my plugins, I think SVN would just complicate things, but thanks for offer.
    I'd like to make plugin that displays horoscope (not that I believe in that), again as you said "local" version in Croatian.

    Resumed work on this one and started to add other rates. There will be two views possible - one unchanged (the same as now), and second displaying all three rates.
    While displaying all three rates should I round the rates on 2 decimal places or display all 6 decimal places?

    Nice, I would use 3 decimal places, it's just common practice I noticed on many exchange offices :)

    Btw I was on vacation, hope to finish meteo skinning by end of the week :)
