Post your desktop

how did you get your start menu inside of your taskbar?

also, my weather is stuck on celsius. how do you get it to fahrenheit?

ALSO, how do i get programs on there?

That's actually Winamp. My start menu/taskbar are set to auto-hide.

Go into the edit skin and switch it over. I think you have to change the Celsius parameter from 0 to 1.

What programs do you mean?

I hate cluttering my desktop with stuff. I only keep frequently accessed files on it. Stuff like weather and media player info stays in the tray and loads silently at startup.

I've been running GNOME for a while since KDE got unstable. Maybe it is better these days; it certainly has more eye candy.

I spend 99% of my time in a console or full-screen program; the desktop is irrelevant. When I'm not using anything I prefer a screen saver to static art. I rotate a bunch of astronomical images or put it on random.

Nope, I found it on the 'net. It's in the Davis Mountains area. Most people (outside TX) don't even know there areas like this in Texas.

I was out in that area a couple of months ago; awesome place. Yeah, I think most people would be shocked to know they were in Texas seeing a city like Alpine.

yup, I agree.

I saw your pics of Big Bend and Cali. Good stuff.

Not my computer (temporary adoption), but this old thing is working pretty well at the moment.

Finally got around to installing Rainmeter. I get it, but I am falling on my face when it comes to setting up custom skin packages/themes like you and Manu do.

Tips for a noob?

What do you mean custom skins? You mean like Enigma? You need to download it, extract it to the rainmeter folder, and then right click on rainmeter and find out which features you want, and if you want them in the taskbar or sidebar.

I mean like this...

Thats obviously not Enigma's default configuration. Googling "Rainmeter skins", you get thousands of hits. Radial menus, extravagant clocks/weather/etc, yada yada yada...

Judging by your response, it would seem my real question then, is your desktop and Manu's a downloaded skin/theme or is it Enigma and something you just tweaked and tweaked and tweaked and tweaked until you got what you wanted?

For example, all Manu's shortcuts on his desktop are not pre-loaded. Did he have to customize each package individually?

Not a big deal if I had to, too, but if I dont, I would like to avoid it. Hope this makes sense.

Most of it is tweaking, sadly. It really doesn't take that long to figure out, and it's actually fun to learn. The skins ENABLE you to make stuff like this, it's up to you to position them correctly and find the right add-ons that suit your taste from the skin.

Cool, thanks!

Briefly read the instructions last night, will have to delve more deeply tonight.
