Hi there!!

What? A bit too late for an Infinite skin pack? Yeah... I know... but I love so much this game, and I learnt how to use Rainmter just in the past few weeks, so I decided to make my first test with this style.
Yes! It's my first try I always used packs made from other people before this one, so please be patient using it hahaha

I decided to start releasing a pre-version, I called it v0.1 BETA, just because I worked a bit on it and now I need some feedback from other people.

I'm not good at programming, and I'm not good with graphic things... So the global level of the skin is nothing special.
Anyway, lot of improvements are already planned. Every day I discover new codes to use in a more efficient way, and I'm working on getting better with photoshop, so even the gfx would become prettier with the new versions.
I know, there are bugs, and I'm trying to solve them. Below you can find a list of known bugs for each skin, but if you find more please contact me with a note directly here on DeviantArt.

A bunch of words on the license...
I release this project with a CC BY-NC-SA 3.0 License. That means you may copy, distribute, display and perform the work and make derivative works based on this, but only if you give me credits and in noncommercial purposes. And if you distribute this, or works based on this, you can't change license type.
That allows you to personalize it as you prefer, and also you can improve it with better coding and/or graphics (in this case, please contact me, as I appreciate help from people who can do really better than me).

For a correct use, I recommend to use "Andes" font. Instructions on how to install it come with the download.

In every skin folder you can find a specific folder with every photoshop project, so you can modify all the images starting from the original.

That's all, have fun and I hope you enjoy it
Bye,

SKINS DESCRIPTIONS:

- RAM+CPU USE
I used the shield bar to show the avalaible ram (full=ram used at 0%), and the life bar to show the % of non-used cpu (full=cpu used at 0%).
At the moment I think it's bug-free, and I haven't planned any upgrades int he coding (maybe I'll add a function on the shield icon). A gfx improvement is planned (better strokes).

- LAUNCHPAD
The Vigor wheel allowed me to set 8 different action buttons (one for each Vigor). This actions are changeable and can open folders, run programs and run commands aswell (see the file .ini of the skin to learn how to personalize it). This skin also shows the clock time and the date.
I tried some ways to animate Vigors as you click it or you pass on it, but none had a good result, so for the moment I removed them leaving all the Vigors illuminated. Anyway, an animation is planned, with gfx improvements.

- DISK MANAGER
I encoded 6 different bars, one for each disk (from C: to H. Every bar shows the % of used space on the correlated disk (if the disk is not connected to the PC it shows "OFFLINE") and it has a lighter bar on the bottom that shows the temporary read speed of the disk. I thought to leave out that last feature because has a lot of problems, but at the end I decided not to remove it so maybe someone can help me. The main problem is the way to create the percentage, you need a max value, and it depends on each disk (max read speed), and the second main problem is that the max read speed depends also on the IOPS of the disk so it's even harder to find a correct way to represent the desired value. Probably I'm going to remove it on the next version. This skin has a limitation: If the unit is not a disk (such as an ODD), it gives a full bar and 0%. Unfortunatly it's a Rainmeter limitation.
For this skin group I planned a global gfx improvement and the center alignment of the disk letters ( really easy but at the moment I'm working on other things).

- PING
The Vigor selector is used to show on the bar the connection latency to www.google.com (changeable). Every section of the bar indicates 5ms, exept for the last one that shows the gap between 46 and 300ms.
Probably this skin is gonna get a total different function, as I planned to implement the ping on the next skin. No ideas at the moment, I'm looking for an use of the bar and the two vigor-buttons.

- DOWNLOAD UPLOAD
I used the weapon selector to show the download (left) and upload (right) speed. It has autoscale, so it adapts to bytes, kilobytes, megabytes,... I planned to shows this info with two bars (one on top and one on bottom) and add the ping where at the moment dl and ul are shown. It is also planned to give a function to the two weapon-buttons, probably EmptyBin and another one related to. Gfx improvement planned.

CHANGELOG:
-15.10.2015: v0.1 BETA released.
