-Why -------------------------------------------------------------------

Need for a simple CPU/Ram/Swap meter for my work PC , criteria : one screen , Photoshop full screened , needed to be on Taskbar , had to look like it came with Windows 7 , finally everything needed to work independently. Ended up making a lot more than initially planned. Also everything is made from scratch. Of course the Windows 7 theme is heavily inspired off Window’s Taskbar.

-How to install ---------------------------------------------------------

Open the w7_taskbarbar_by_wrecklesspunk-d3d0pru.rmskin and it will self-extract to your Rainmeter skins directory

Themes :
W7 : a heavily inspired Windows 7 theme ,
Chocolate : chocolate bar Bars .... Sweet
Brush : brushed metal theme best used with the Concave icon pack
Neon : who doesn’t like neon lights? Best used with the Neon icon pack, choose any colour with the config.exe.

Icon packs :
Concave : mostly transparent icons in a concave fashion
Emboss : pretty much the opposite of Concave
Ghost : hard to explain, mostly transparent great for light backgrounds
Glass : embossed glass effect, mostly transparent great for dark backgrounds
