Amazing, thank you!

Quick Summary:
This workflow can process and convert all CSS color formats and several Objective-C formats, namely NSColor (calibrated and device) and UIColor. It also provides an interface to the OS X color panel for easier color manipulations.
 
It's written in native code (i.e. it's really fast).

Right now, workflow feedback can only point to icons that are accessible via the local file system.
 
It would be very nice if workflows could put icons from HTTP URLs into feedback without downloading them (synchronously) themselves.
 
So, for example, a workflow that searches for movies via some API could pass cover URLs that the API returns with the search results as feedback icons and display those.
 
The advantage of Alfred downloading the icons instead of the workflow is that:
1) Alfred can download the icons asynchronously, so the user can action an item even before the icon is loaded. The UI keeps responsive, which is very important
2) Alfred knows more about what icons are currently visible, and which are not, so Alfred could only load the visible icons to save bandwidth, and load others as the user scrolls

I've already got some ideas in mind for Alfred's future for this

I created an account specifically to thank you, and the others that helped add the color picker code, for this workflow. It by far the most useful workflow I have installed. As a developer, I will use this multiple times a day. Thanks again for your efforts.

I converted David Ferguson's Wolfram|Alpha extension to a workflow (and made some tweaks along the way  )
 
It requires you have an AppID of your own (get one here). Note: Make sure you wait a few minutes before entering the code; Wolfram|Alpha's servers seem to take a moment to register the AppID.
 
It provides feedback with the answer and input interpretation. If you action an item, it will output all the available information to Growl. Pressing ⌥↩ will copy the answer to the clipboard; ⌘↩ will open your query in Wolfram|Alpha (in the default browser).
 
Here's a picture of the workflow editor:

Update (May 15, 2013): Fixed another bug that prevented saving of AppID
 
Update (March 5, 2013): Fixed bug that prevented the workflow from saving AppID on certain setups
 
Update (Feb 25, 2013): Fixed garbled text issues, added 'Selection is OS X' argument to hotkey

Hi Shawn, that's exactly what I'm going to do. To save everyone having to read through the whole thread, I'll update the first post and reiterate, then lock this thread so this post is last.
 
Summary:
AlfPT was a wonderful idea by an Alfred user, Tom Hunt, to create a way for workflows to be updated and gathered in one place. However, Tom has decided to take the project offline (due to school/work commitments and the bandwidth requirements of that project). As such, documentation in this thread is now outdated.
 
Here's what's coming soon:
- Other users are working on their own repositories for workflows
- We are working on an official v2 Extras site, which will include curated workflows (which we've tested and checked) and themes
 
We'll also be publishing a few blog posts with our favourite and your favourite workflows very soon, so keep an eye on the blog for the links to the above!

This is a fantastic workflow! Has the potential to replace a bunch of others e.g. currency conversion, weather etc.
 
Is it possible to wait a very short amount of time after the last keystroke before string is submitted to wolfram? It seems to submit as soon as I start typing, but without allowing me to finish typing (even when typing pretty fast). This means that I waste time waiting for the results to come back from (obviously) unfinished queries before it gets to submitting the finished query. Try a currency conversion like "10USD in GBP" to see what I mean.
 
Ideally it would only submit if there haven't been any keystrokes in, say, the last 0.25 seconds.

It looks like your Growl is set to use Notification Center instead of a normal theme. One solution: disable Growl's use of Notification Center and use a normal Growl theme (my favorite is Mono by Christopher Lobay—http://beautifulpixels.com/macintosh/mono-growl-theme/).
If you want a better way to include Growl in NC, try Bark (http://barkplug.in/). I forget which apps use NC and which ones use Growl because Bark does such a good job integrating the two. Plus, you can decide which apps you want to appear in NC and which apps you want to use a normal Growl style for (like Alfred )

Hey I made another minimalistic theme, as none fit my wishes really well!

I wanted an easy way to compress files from Alfred, so I wrote a quick workflow to do it.
 
It can compress a single file or folder to .ZIP, .TAR.GZ, .TAR.BZ2, and .DMG archive formats. Support for multiple files/folders may be added later, if I can figure it out 
 
Any and all feedback is welcome. Enjoy

I found a var_dump() line in my code that broke HSL conversions . The workflow has been updated to fix that; try this link: http://cl.ly/2y1d2w1f0y1w

One of the biggest oversights I think OS X has is the lack of a hotkey to quickly archive (zip) files. With Alfred I'm able to create this using AppleScript and a hotkey trigger. 
 
I've created a workflow that uses both a Hotkey ( cmd + shift + \ ) and a Keyword ( zip ) to compress the selected files or folders into a zip. It's stupidly simple to modify.

If you're looking for more options try this workflow out by Tyler Eich - File/Folder Archiver

Ah gotcha. So.. this has come up in the past in different ways. We've got a note to explore other ways to accomplish things like this. Several people have wanted to throttle the XML output, delay until typing has stopped, not execute at every typed character, etc.
 
Thanks for the recommendation. 

Thanks Tyler. That's what I was looking for. 

Inspired by previous work, with the font and colours sampled from the menu bar in OS X.
 
Now updated for 10.9, OS X Menu Bar v4 is designed to look like it came part and parcel with OS X Mavericks.

Don't forget to check out some of the templates when creating a workflow as well. They make it really easy to get started with Workflows as well

Workflows are Alfred's new and improved way of handling everything v1 could do (and more). Check out this workflow I threw together. It wires a hotkey to a 'Reveal in Finder' action; the Hotkey feeds '~' to the action, so Finder opens your home folder.
 
It also has a second hotkey that you can set up to browse the folder using Alfred.
 
Let me know if you need help, and enjoy Alfred 2

Download this workflow by Florian. The preview picture doesn't show it, but it will do everything you described and more.
 
Enjoy Alfred 2

Tyler made some great recommendations. You can hit up Google and find tutorials for just about any language out there. Try looking for 'Hello world" tutorials for whatever language you'd like to learn. That gives you the MOST BASIC starting point of any language.

Wiring actions sequentially into other actions is definitely in Alfred's future, but v2 is an absolutely huge change already so this is going to wait
