Madbeetle have removed the plugin from their website.

The last post from madbeetle was..

We will continue to sign animation files. Not sure what will happen at the moment in the long term with the plugin. Its all too complex to discuss ...

So it doesn't look good sad.gif

Hopefully the issue, whatever it is, will be sorted and they can release the plugin again [-o<

A request has never been made by Madbeetle to cease usage of the plugin. On the contrary, they are still willing to sign homescreens and they even posted some homescreens on this forum. It just seems to be distribution of the plugin itself which I expect Madbeetle can't discuss. I suppose we have to wait and see what happens sad.gif

I suspect that the problem is in the form of a third party...

I wonder if it's related to the fact that they started charging (albeit a negligible amount) for the plugin?

Hi.

I'm looking for the plugin, too. And until Madbeetle says something different, it is still free.
I already searched the WHOLE NET for this plugin, its nowhere to get.

It is strange...I can't see where the hold up would be...can someone ummm copywrite a plug in or animation? Or perhaps they got a HUGH offer to sell it outright to some major company... I know the peps at madbeetle read this maybe someone could make a squeak.....

thats what i think. well they should put their heads together if thats the case. Although charging for animated homescreens which i think the other company was gonna do is a bit rank.

Madbeetle have already stated differently, and before they removed the plugin it became commercial and they were charging for it. So asking for commercial software is against the site rules unless madbeetle decide to release this for free again.

For anyone thinking of asking for this plugin via posts or pm please read the site rules first.
