The Gambas Intro Music

[stevedee]

I must admit that the musical intro from the first Gambas screen freaks me out a bit...I always wonder where it is coming from.

I know it plays on Christmas day and Easter Sunday; has anyone noticed it on other days of the year?

So that was what it was!

  If dNow = Date(iYear, 12, 25) Then
    sPlay = "bells.mp3"

Yeah, it can be a little startling at times.

Jingle Jingle, Merry Christmas all!

Was waiting to hear what it was. Now going to wait until Easter to hear the other one. (Yes I could simply find the mp3 but that's cheating. )

Did you notice the snow too?

I'd like a switch to turn the audio off. it's nice but my computer is also my music system and the bells play over my music :-\

It's a nice touch though

Yep. Wonder if we'll get eggs on Easter.

I hear ya on the switch. Guess you just need to start Gambas up in the morning and keep it running all day.
