I've made an OperaWidget for Opera9 today. Well, BTW today only I learned how to make OperaWidgets. It is basically a widget that calculates your BMI(Body Mass Index) and gives you suggestions how to improve based on your weight and height. Weight can be in kgs/pounds and height in meters/centimeters/inches (select from drop down menu).

NOTE: The suggestions given through the widget are not of a diagnostic nature. Please consult your doctor before you follow any advice. BMI is not an accurate calculation of your fitness levels. BMI threshold data taken from www.wikipedia.org. The author is not responsible for any results either wanted or unwanted caused due to the use of this widget.

It might have a bug. It says I am underweight, yet the suggested weight for my height (1.8m) is 58-81kg, and I fit in that range nicely at 65kg. I am male.

Is this working how it was intended?

Nice, However... Other than the things mentioned above, this should take waist size into accnt. I am male 5'4" and weigh 167lbs according to this I am obese, very untrue. I have a 27" waist and 17 1/2" biceps...I work out a lot.

Nice idea... But does not take into account bone-wight and density factors... Someone - like myself - who weighs 90 kgs and is 1.76 m tall is - accroding to this calculation "obese"...

) Whereas I am in fact heavily boned and heavily muscled with a factual bmi of 23. So for anyone using this - take the information with a grain of salt

He probably forgot as he is an Indian. Kg is the SI unit and is used in most parts of the world.

It should give ideal weight in pounds as well as kilogarms -- I have no idea what 43 kilograms means.

The textfields where I am supposed to write things are transparent. This way, clicking on them does nothing to widget, and instead raise the window that was below the widget.

Not usable for me.

Found a way how to make the widget look bigger.

While pressing the left mouse button on a widget press 8 to make it larger or 7 to make it smaller.

Perhaps it's not necessary to press a button sometimes...

Works with all the widgets I've seen.

Way way too small! Can barely read it! However, It does say that I'm exactly Ideal, so I like it!

Heh, nice idea. However, the fonts are waaayyyy too small on my computer - I'm using 1680x1050 resolution and the words are just barely readable. You might want to increase the font size or add settings for it.
