Desk Cloud
Well, after a few weeks of no inspiration, I made new rainmeter skin - Desk Cloud. This skin provides you with all the necesary information about system, news and weather and it's made by inspiration of the new Microsoft Windows 8 screenshots.

Hello, love the skin so much and major props.
However, ive been having troubles with the weather (not only this skin, ive downloaded and tried several other weather skins to no avail).. Ive changed the location and also saw the url measure is already on xml instead of xoap.
I really dont know what is wrong here, so the weather panel is basically all blank without any city/forecasts info. Appreciate if you can help with this matter. Thanks in advance!

Make sure you refresh the skin after you hit enter and if that doesn't work edit 'Config.inc' file content. Please update me on any results, because I'm really concerned about that problem in my skins.

ok refresh didnt work but when i edited it in the Config.inc worked fine weird but it works now..

Well, thanks Max! I see that CreativX is all about Windows 7, but I currently have Windows XP, if I install Windows 7 then my PC would turn into a turtle.
If that means something, I'm planing new PC and Windows 7 etc. only at next Spring...

I d/l it and it's awesome, now my question is how do I make the music player to use iTunes instead of windows media player?
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
I dunno. I don't use iTunes either WMP, it's there just for the view.

Iยดve tried to change the weather location, but after changing it shows nothing in weather, how can I get it back? And what about changing adress for icons? Cause after right click there is just normal rainmeter dialog window.
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
To change the weather location, right click on location, enter your city's zip code (e.g. LGXX0004), hit enter and refresh skin (if it does not show city, try to re-install the skin).
To change the path for icons, right click on icon, enter address for file/folder (e.g. C:/user/documents/the folder) then hit enter and refresh skin.

Very nice! Just a small suggestion if you don't mind? Putting each item seperatly would make it very convenient to join it with other themes like Omnimo
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
Thanks! I've never tried Omnimo, but if you want it separately then I need to remake all the skin. It's not hard or something, sooo... I will do it, when I'll have more time.
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
Well , you should try it! It's very similar to your theme only each panel is individual and highly customisable!To be honest the first thing that had caught my eye here was the launcher! I was planning to implement it straight into my desktop until I saw that it wasn't separate! :/
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
Okay, I will make stand-alone panel and separate widgets, when I'll have some free time.

ok figured it out hit the enter key to save settings

I'm glad that you like it so much that you can hit the enter key for it to work

looks awesome..but cant seem to get the weather location and unit to change it goes back to latvia everytime i change it any ideas
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
After you change settings refresh the skin by 'right click > refresh'.
Anyway thanks for pointing that out, so I will put refresh button there in future.

Sorry for late fix, I was on road.

X=250
Y=356
