When I picked cyan as the first choice, and light blue at the second choice, this error came up.Posted Image
Try typing lightBlue instead of light blue (hold ctrl+t and type in ".system/settings.sys")

Couldn't you add "proper" error checking for this? Or better yet, make it button based or something so you won't have this problem?
that is exactly what i was planning for the full version.
EDIT: Button based settings Added in Glass 5

BUG Report:
Location: Settings
Description: ​Inputting any color name that doesn't belong to the "recommended" list will result in window API error
Suggested Fix: Add else statement at the end of your Settings code to the place where colors are matched to color numbers (haven't looked at the exact error line, but assume you have it this way). In the else statement, print something like "Sorry, unknown/unsupported color name" and restart the program/current program page (there are 2,one for the bar color and the second one for the bg color).

There isn't even an if statement :P Anyway, i will add a better UI to the settings.

It's not about the UI -_-

A better UI could also fix it, of course. If the user can't cause bad data to be the selection, a non-existent color can't crash the API.

Planned for the new version:

Better looking login system
Better UI
A BSOD

Not many features are planned :( Please suggest more.

You should always be sure to leave the code available. If you left it unavailable for too long, I'd have to lock the topic, as you should already know.

Also,don't forget to submit an app!

To your GAPI - you should add further documentation e.g. gapi.download(...) - what does this return? A file handle? Content of the page? Does it save data?

Can at least 1 person who voted "no" tell me what's wrong with the OS?

As for those who voted "yes":Thank you :)

note: DO NOT vote "no" if you think G.A.P.I or Glass Apps is bad.

Remember,I'm only 10 years old

EDIT: Also,should I discontinue this? I'm asking this question because I've got 4 "no" votes.
EDIT2: Someone voted "YES discontinue this".I spent 5 seconds of my life typing "(say why)".So whoever did this,say why.

I can say for sure that I voted "No" and "1 Star" earlier. 4 people isn't very many, either. The OS is quite buggy, I can't login using the credentials I know I entered (I even checked the save folder), it lacks a good UI (all text is left aligned) and there are other things that I otherwise dislike. I don't think you have to discontinue it, it could just use improvment.
