Description
Winter has come to Denmark (snow!
) and thus I decided to release my newly-made winter theme for Rainmeter following some acclaim from Lifehacker on the theme I put up on their Flickr page 
This is the desktop version and the file I've uploaded here should hopefully be able to install the theme exactly as you see it above, but do please make a backup just for good measure, in case my file should somehow mess up your previous build
The skins are set up on a 1080p display so if you run another resolution you may have to replace the skins' locations. Also unlike the laptop version I linked above, this doesn't use the Power skin since I don't run my desktop on a battery
The file should be included though, so you are able to put it in there and of course move things around to your personal liking. This is merely a shortcut so that nobody will have to do all the customization by themselves (though the shortcuts above might need some personal tinkering with, and also the weather skin.Instructions for the customizable skins are as follows:
- twistlemon's Social Launcher (The top shortcut bar, modified to also lead me to the C drive and my Downloads folder
)- Easily modifiable: Simply pick "Edit skin" from the right-click menu and find the part that says "Text links" and replace the text and links with whatever destination you want
- And lilshizzy's Encoded skin pack :
- Weather - Edit skin -> Find "MeasureWeatherRSS -> Line nr. 4 saying "URL" -> Switch out "USCA1192" with your own location code ( www.weather.com -> search your city of choice and read the code in the URL-bar in your browser, for example mine reads ".../Copenhagen+Denmark+DAXX0009", meaning DAXX0009 is my weather code
)- HDD - Edit skin -> Scroll to after the "-----" line under "Styles" and on all three "Drive"'s put in the HDD you want to measure -> Scroll to "HDD1 Name" and change "LeftMouseUpAction" to your drive so that it will open the drive when you click on the "X" on the skin
That's about it. I'd like to thank~lilshizzy and ~twistlemon for their skins, I really love their simple looks - I also recommend checking out their other files, these two have great taste for design
If anyone has questions I'll try my best to answer though you should bear in mind that I don't know how to program, I only know how to tweak the settings in some Rainmeter skins - But I'll happily make the attempt
