Angelina Jolie Dashboard Widget

One of my obsessions is Angelina Jolie. Don't worry, I'm not a stalker and my wife is fully aware of my interest in Ms. Jolie and is not jealous. I've got a cool wife, what can I say? Also, it's not so much an obsession, really--it's not like I've got thousands of AJ pictures all over my walls and so on, just a few on my walls, several more on my hard drive and most of them are pretty tasteful. However, with the advent of the dashboard in Mac's OSX Tiger (10.4) I thought it would be cool to have some sort of slide show of my favorite Angelina pics. The idea is that every time I pull up my dashboard to check the latest headlines, cheapest gas prices, earthquakes, or movie times, I would get to see a different pic of Angelina.

Of course, I'm swamped with work, so I didn't have time to program my own widget by myself. What I did do is grab [http://code.hillrippers.ch/index.cgi?soft=widget_xWing|this very cool Star Wars ship widget] and change it around to fit my needs. Hey, on his site Pascal Pfiffner, the programmer, calls it "free code" and I am going to email him to let him know I used his code. In fact, if you're impressed at all with this Angelina Jolie slideshow widget, don't tell me, [http://code.hillrippers.ch/contact.php|tell him].

Then I thought, hey, I'm not the only Angelina Jolie fan in the world, why note post this widget and see if anyone else wants to DL it?

So, here it is:
