SUPER GIR2.0

I remember a time when widgets were really popular, but at some point something must've gone very wrong because their popularity dropped overnight and they gradually disappeared from everywhere.Nowadays there are still people who think they were cool and wished that they'd come back. Who wouldn't want, for instance, a static yet very talkative GIR robot widget on their desktops? If the answer's not you, SUPER GIR can take care of that.

Talking GIR

If you're familiar with the popular TV series "Invader Zim," you probably know GIR, which is Zim's SIR assistant, only that it was completely made of garbage, hence the G in its name.This widget places a static image of this funny little robot on your desktop that can read you quotes from the show in its specific voice. If you found the show to be funny, then you'll enjoy this robot's nonsensical talk all day long or until you learn the quotes by heart. All you need to do is double-click it and although it won't make any move, it will surely steal a chuckle from you.

Change its costume

SUPER GIR also enables you to change the default costume of the protagonist by simply right-clicking it, accessing the dedicated preferences menu and selecting the other costume from the list, which is still GIR but dressed as a dog. Most of you probably know it in this form anyway.If you'd rather customize the whole widget, you can navigate to the "Window" section of the preferences window and pick a window level from the menu, set the mouse cursor to be ignored and toggle the "Prevent Dragging" feature. You can also set the opacity level by adjusting the slider.

Funny talking GIR widget

In conclusion, if you were a fan of Invader Zim, you can have your own talking GIR on your desktop by installing the SUPER GIR widget. However, note that you need to install Yahoo! Widgets before you can actually deploy this utility on your PC.
