Uploading Vista gadgets

WC doesn't accept .gadget files

By Posted March 28, 2008 16:25:49
I was uploading an update to my London Tube Vista gadget and I got an error when I tried to upload the .gadget file.
WC told me to check the file extension, requiring a .zip file. But the .gadget file is a zip file, it's just renamed. So zipping the allready zipped file seems very unnessesary.
If we could upload .gadget files then the users downloading the file could easily install it directly, now they got to unpack it first.

Could the Vista gadget submission please accept .gadget files?

Excellent. I imagined that I had requested this before when the sidebar galleries where put in place. Obviously not.

Thanks for that, I'll re-upload my gadgets no without the zip wrapping.
