I developed this little application that allows you to set the brightness level.
The program is completely customizable (graphics and settings).
Is designed to run on HTC (tested on Diamond, Touch Pro and HD) in both portrait and landscape.
Let me know if you like it or if you want some new features.

I was just thinking about an app like this one when I was in bed last week. Didn´t need my screen to be so bright, thanks a lot, 12

Edit: Can't tell any difference yet between brightest and lowest brightness, I'm on touch pro. Is the difference suposted to be minimal or huge? 12

Hey, This is just a quick suggestion for this cool app.

Would it be possible to make the app function on the volume up/down hardware keys? prehaps holding another hardware key and pressing up or down could control the app. I think this would make the app more easier to use quickly. Again, not crisitism, just an idea. :)

thanks.. :) any suggestion/problem?

great app!
one suggestion: an "always visible" icon in the topbar (it could be a brightness symbol or, better, a battery status icon) so your app can be easily accessed by tapping on topbar (I was thinking on the use with "HTC Large Title Bar" package, as htc volume control does)

Thanks a lot for this app, flawless on my Kaiser. I second this idea, I had the same :).

It's a cool app thank you.

bug found:

When I install both 0.40 or 0.30, the setup creates two shortcuts to mylight in the programs folder.
