FAQs

What is CountDown?

CountDown is a small .NET Windows program that allows you to display a countdown timer from a computer. For instance a countdown to the start of service or some other event.

Why did you create CountDown?

I wrote CountDown after searching the web for something I can use in our youth ministry. To prepare everyone for the start of service. I was looking for something similar to what is used at the Northwest District of the Assembly of God's Youth Conference before each session starts. The only thing I could find was video loops with a static countdown timer in them and each one of them had a cost associated with them. To keep things fresh, I would have had to spend quite a bit of money.

What does CountDown do?

With CountDown you can have anything playing on your display (video, music with visualizations, PowerPoint slide show, etc) and the CountDown timer will display over top of it.

How do I change the color of the font?

Click the color square and then choose the desired color and click 'ok'.

How do I change the font?

Doubleclick the font name and then select your new font, size, and style. Then click 'ok'.

Can I copy this and give it to a friend?

Absolutely! All I ask is you drop an e-mail to me letting me know if you like the program and if it meets your needs. You can e-mail countdown AT conklincomputing.com.
