Here's mine, thanks to Judge's weather script and an adaptation of mutantcols script. The icons are just stuff that were on my hard drive, don't remember where I got them at..

holy crap that's a nice script!!! what color is transparent for png's? like hex val. please :)

I've played with the weather script trying to get it going for 2 days now, works once when I extract all the files soon as I touch the script to add my city I get NA for everything... I know you guys posted alot of how-to's but I just can't get the thing to work for me. Am I missing something?

Just follow the instructions.

1.) Add Active script "neowin_news.vbs"

2.) Select Function "RunMeInBackground", set run every 5 min and click Test.

3.) By now it should show "Next check at..."

4.) Add another neowin active script, this time select function "ReturnHTML" and set run every 10 min and click Test.

5.) By now on the result box it should show the html code of Neowin front page. It should create "neowin_news.tmp" file

6.) Check if neowin_news.tmp existed inside your Samurize directory. If found then you're almost done

7.) Add Text file and under "Text File to Read from" locate your "neowin_news.tmp" file. Make sure don't mark "Force update every time"

8.) By now it should show latest Neowin headlines.

9.) Optional: the "ReturnHTML" should show parameters "sURL: https://www.neowin.net". For me it should be hidden somewhere so it don't show on your samurize script. Make sure you remember that the place you hide that "ReturnHTML" script.

Hope it helps you.

can anyone help me. i dont get what he means in step 7.

Hopefully someone with knowledge of the different weather scripts can verify this but I belive that judges should work because it is basically stand alone and points to individual pages hosted at http://www.weather.com/ while most of the other scripts use the weather.cache.xml and RefreshWeatherPlus.vbs. RefreshWeatherPlus updates the weather.cace.xml... only problem is that http://weather.interceptvector.com/weather...?id=QlVYWDAwMDU seems broken at the moment and is not displaying any xml outputs. I had downloaded classix10k and tried to use the samurize script from it not knowing what to expect after 2 days of screwing with paths etc.. nothing has appeared because it can not update the weather.cache.xml file. Even though it uses WeatherPlus.vbs it still needs to read from weather.cache.xml....whew!

So if any of this makes sence just let us know. Im just guessing that many people here maybe using different scripts.

can anyone help me. i dont get what he means in step 7.

Step 7 means: After the script gets a file called "neowin_news.tmp" in your samurize's folder,then u add a meter in sumurize's config called "Add Text File",in this "Text File Properties",there's an option call "Text File To Read From:",then u locate it to "neowin_news.tmp"(Actually you can open this file with notepad).that's all.

Help! Well I've really liked the configs I've seen in this thread and I've been waiting for the right weekend to make my own...

I've obviously copied some that were already made, but I've made this one to match my favorite theme: Beacon.

BUT...only one thing remains a problem: Current temperature (showing as N/A instead).

I've honestly spent most of the day on this, and I think I'm doing things right. All results in my config are correct to weather.com's website, except the current temperature (N/A).

Can anyone help me to figure this out? Could anyone try my city (Chilliwack, Canada) out in their config to see if they can get the current temperature to work? Or give me any suggestions as to what I can try...

I would appreciate any help....thanks! :D

I have judge"s weather and his calander scripts-does anyone know were I can grab his one for his system and network stats-looked over the forums and couldn"t find a link-any help would be greatly appreciated-P.S. nice work judge!!!

You can get it here. A $100.00 value for only $19.95. But wait. That's not all. For a limited time only, I'll give you not just the stats, not just what you've seen in my screen shots, but every single config, script and skin I use. So hurry, while the ZIP lasts :p (its just over 1MB).

Well. OK. You can have it for free. I'm giving them away! :cool:
