      @cowboysdude hoping @paviro is working on it.

      I’d been keen to see what you guys have done though. I have no experience coding for this, so I’m starting from scratch.

      Ill check out @RedNax 's weather app too. I think I’m using the default for now

        @Mitchfarino Once you get started you’ll see it’s a piece of cake. I have no experience either but as you can see mine is up and running.

        I do dabble in php and VERY little js so I’m going to attempt to port a joomla module I wrote over to this… I realize most here aren’t American but I’d really enjoy the NFL scores on mine as well… when I get time I’ll look at it…

        I’m a contractor and right now I have no time for my own stuff LOL

          Once I am done with school, I will :)

          We're all stories in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?

            I’ll update my picture as soon as it’s done… I ordered a real glass mirror but 2" longer so I can hide the PIR and Camera behind it… the new frame will be made out of mahogany… so once the mirror comes in I’ll build the new frame… next week I’m hoping…

              Not entirely sure if the PIR will work (well) behind glass… http://forum.arduino.cc/index.php?topic=123750.0
              As for the camera, it’ll be getting a lot less light to work with aswell…

              That said, lookingforward to the result… :)

                @RedNax Well then I can still have a mirror that’s 2" bigger :)

                Honestly I wasn’t sure it would either but what I can do is add an inch of wood to the bottom and insert them behind that so not to block either of them.

                Thank you for the advice because that’ll just save me time!! :)

                  As a fellow USA resident and die hard Cowboys fan, I am eagerly awaiting news on your NFL module. I’m hoping to use it as a roadmap to also display current team news. As my wife is a die hard Redskins fan, (I know, I know), I’m hoping to tie face recognition in so it shows me Cowboys stuff and shows her Redskins stuff.

                      Because of the light sensitivity of the PIR module cannot put it behind the mirror… :( BUT you can replace it with a NOIR camera behind the glass to get the same thing!!! SO that’s my next move.

                      The mirror build is all done. I used real 1/4" glass mirror and built the frame from mahogany with a white trim on the front… very pleased with it.

                        My mirror has come a long way since it’s first build… it’s now voice activated… with newer modules like MMM-NFL module… wunderground weather module… quotes module… all this possible by really awesome users!!

                        So my mirror is because of the people that work really hard to bring this stuff to the public and it’s much appreciated!! It’s really awesome that you can customize something for you instead of having to deal with what people sell you and having to live with something that works but doesn’t totally do what you want it to.

                        Thank you all for ALL your hard work!!!
