O.P. [Release]Birthday Reminder
Well if you are like me and keep forgetting birthdays... this comes handy :P

This script allows you to add birthday reminders and checks each day if it anyone's birthday. If a birthyear is set, then it calculates the person's age.

Test it and tell me if you find any bugs.

This is sick!  I've needed this for awhile hehe..  Nice Job!

Just one suggestion.  A countdown would be cool too, especially if it could be configured to update daily, hourly, etc.

No bugs yet :)  Good job.

Sweet deal... No problemo!  :)  I just had another idea.  Have the text change colour as it gets closer to the birthday.  Of course try and make that configurable too.  So people can have all sorts of crazy colours.  Mabye allow gradients to be used (slowly changes colour daily until the birthday). 

I'm going to buy a bike now :|  I'll prolly think of more things on the way. lol

Would be nice to have an option to remind you a few [customizable] days before the birthday - so that you have time to get a present etc.

Great Script! Suggestion: Allow others to add their b'day by saying for example: !b'day add 26/5/76

ok maybe this is taking it a bit above and beyond, but what if the person whos birthday it is happens to be on your contact list, then in theory you can when setting their birthday link to the contact and configure a birthday greeting that will be automatically sent to them on the day of their birthday. and if they arent online that day well dont worry WLM has offline messaging so they will receive it next time they sign in.

what do you think? is this doable. not to mention its far more customizable than a regular card, you can even add custom colors, gradient etc.
