Updated to version 1.4.4 to include saving/restoring/resetting of your settings. Also you can now choose the delay that the program will retrieve fresh exchange rate information (default 10 seconds)

Version 1.4.6 A currency conversion tool has been coded for the program now. I have enclosed both the ability to convert from bitcoin - another currency or how much bitcoin could be bought with a certain amount and type of currency.
Currency conversion is done via google's api and only requires the 3 digit currency code such as GBP or USD or CAD etc etc...
So now you can find out at a glance how many bitcoins you could buy, or how much money you could get from your bitcoins.
Enjoy another updated release.

Works fine with my slightly larger fonts now. Is it possible to give the option always keep the window in front or to show one of the prices as an icon in the tray when minimized? Then I could always know the price of bitcoins at a glance.

Thught about this, I need to research if I can do this. My attempt failed dismally. Yea the app was great as is but you have really excelled with the converter add-on. Donation will be coming your way shortly.
Thanks
Thank you!

Now I have successfully added a check box so that you can choose to keep the window on the top at all times, or simply uncheck it to have its normal behaviour.
Enjoy!

Updated: Added a miniature version of the watcher to the "tools" menu that is always on top, so when you want to keep an eye on the rates but save screen space, you can choose to bring up that mini window aptly named "MinX" Enjoy. EDIT:I uploaded 1.4.8 again due to a mislabled label. Nothing major but before on the mini view, it updated to both saying "buy". That is now fixed. Please download 1.4.8 again if you notice you got the early mislabled version. EDIT:I updated to 1.4.9 due to switching the terminology to bid and ask rather than the api's internal choice of buy and sell. EDIT:I updated to 1.5 due to overlooking a couple of labels that were still on the old "buy/sell" text.

If tradehill add a similar API to their site I will look into the possibility of doing that. Right now they have no comparible API to the one that mtgox has.

They need a decent API with the vital statistics only. Those guys don't have any kind of API I can find. Most people and sites use mtgox as the "gold standard" value of bitcoin. If I add any other exchanges into the program I would need to add all of them which would make the program far too convoluted.

Well, I appreciate the work you have done. I'll throw a tip your way once I get a few more btc in.
