Christmas in Prague

Christmas in Prague is a nice little application that you can use to count down the days until Christmas while viewing a continuous animation.

The application uses little of your system resources and comes as a small window that you can place anywhere on your desktop. You can have it hover over other applications or run in the background. If you want it to have a more discreet presence, you are able to adjust its transparency so it blends in better with your desktop.

While running, you get to view a great looking photo that depicts a beautiful piece of Prague. In the background, you can see the Sun and Moon setting and rising, clouds and snowflakes falling to the ground at different speeds. The image and the animations all come together to deliver a time-lapse looking day-night cycle.

For the animations in Christmas in Prague you can set their speed speed from slow to quick without having a negative effect over the quality of the rendered elements. The application shows you the number of days left until Christmas and also enables you to switch it off. This way you can simply enjoy a small view of the city.

Besides the countdown until Christmas, you get to set the application to show you how many days are left until New Year’s eve and the Julian Christmas. This way, you have two more things to look forward to.

In closing, Christmas in Prague is by all means a fun and practical application that can help you keep track of time.
