I need some ideas for my final project.. it should be an application, which is not that much simple.. needs to be a little advanced and it should make a connection to a database, so the project needs at least some login or data retrieval from a database.

Thanks for your ideas.

[EDIT]
It can even be a game.. but I'm not much of a designer.. although I'm downloading the DirectX SDK to take a look at it.

A shoutbox/forum thing perhaps? Or something like Xav's cinema project :P
But should it be a desktop app...?

how about a simple help desk program where the help desk user enters the customer data, then on the other tab enters customer ticket, and have the main for be where all tickets are open show, it would definitly need a database. : )

Well, now I realized that I don't need it to be in C#.. I'm not restricted at all.. I can use Java, C# and other languages (I need to have permission first)

It's a good idea anyways.. although.. a forum sounds quite complicated... I'd prefer if it was a desktop application.

I moved this to the General Programming Forum.

Great idea. added to my list.

Desktop... Hmm, what about a real IM thingy? OK, too complicated, I guess.. What about a downloader? Or perhaps a picture app where you could get and recieve pics from others...? Or simply a walkie-talkie in computer form, like a simple IM... How complicated should it be? A small game perhaps..?

It needs to have a database involved somewhere... I tried with the Pc-to-Pc IM.. and I did succeed (to a certain extent) but I'm not willing for such thing..

Downloader - No DB
Pics receiver - No DB
Walkie-talkie - sounds complicated, but again no DB
Small Game - Ideas?

It can even be a game.. but I'm not much of a designer.. although I'm downloading the DirectX SDK to take a look at it.

lol, idk.. DB..

Anything with a web-based highscore list? (game)
I will post if I think I've come up with something useful...

[TcM]

Well, I can always use a DB for a game, to store player details and highscores etc..

[Xav]

How about a complete recipe manager system? Your favourite recipes are stored in a database, with ingredients etc. in separate tables in the DB. It can work out how much of each ingredient to use to feed a certain amount of people, export recipes to HTML webpages, have a timer facility, etc. etc...

[TcM]

Well.. it's a good idea.. but do you have something better than 'recipes' lol?

Make a packet sniffer designed to run on a compromised network, which will have a hub sitting between switch and router with your computer with the packet sniffer sitting on the third hub connection.

Make it organize all of the data in a database.

It's not too difficult and it's useful.

[TcM]

Hmm.. a good idea, although I don't know how to 'sniff' connections.. I'll make a research! It sounds very original IMO.
