does anyone else have this? it's a desktop customization tool for windows. i just started messing with it and i already love it. heres' my desktop:

it's pretty damn easy to set up. http://www.rainmeter.net . i'm using the enigma skin and something called TECH-A for the crazy circle thing. the middle part spins!

I use it on my laptop. You can make some really cool stuff if you download that program that lets you have animated wallpapers to have along with it. I forgot what it's called though, probably easy to find.

This looks amazing, will definitely try it when I'm back on my desktop

damn that is a highres monitor you have there

1920x1080 is the typical high res , but there are definitely monitors much larger than mine. you can actually get really affordable monitors at this dimension - the one i have is from asus and it only cost me $200. it was on sale but still, that is a good deal. and i got it like 3 years ago.

I'm pretty sure I want that on my desktop

Okay I now installed it and it's buggy as shit.

First off, I followed the instructions to install that wheel thingy aaaand it loads for hours and doesn't get anywhere

Secondly, when trying to change that shortcut things, I can't change the location. The 5th one is a link to the rainmeter forums, I tried to change it and whenever I change it, it instantly changes back. I don't get it.

aside from that it works fine (so far) but that shortcut stuff is annoying

edit: i can also not turn off the "Top Stories" thing. It's unchecked - I can check and uncheck it all I want but it won't go away.

edit2: Okay, I uninstalled it. None of the shortcuts aside from the explorer worked either, so it's useless to me if the effort to make it all work right is too high for its use.
