Unstoppable Progress uses Unsanity's Application Enhancer SDK to create the effect of overflowing status bars. They overflow with water as time passes, eventually spilling off of the window.

Unstoppable Progress is a hack we created for the MacHack Best Hack Contest, part of the MacHack Conference in Detroit, Michigan. The contest is really very simple. You program a hack, present it, and vote for it as many times as you can. The ballots are tallied and the winners receive prizes during the banquet on the last day of the conference. We won first place this year with Unstoppable Progress.

The source to Unstoppable Progress is included as part of the download. It's a Project Builder project, and requires the Unsanity Application Enhancer SDK (FREE). It's pretty messy, but we commented it as best we could. Poke around and have fun!

Requirements:
At least one Carbon application with a progress bar (The Finder, Photoshop, Stuffit, Classic Startup),
Application Enhancer SDK.
