this is my latest.. quite similar to my old one, but with graphics instead of pure 0.63c rectangles.. :happy:

the PNGs are based on c10k2 and i just fitted them to my config..

nothing unnecesary, nothing bulky, just straighforward, important, every-day info..

:punk:

:) Okay, I have been working hard on this config for a bit, I also found a script to add a local doppler radar to your config....WAY COOL! Completely transparent so it works well with my wallpaper! All of it updates hourly including the doppler! Hope you all like! :)

hmmz... i could swear i'd posted this one here somewhere yesterday night :s anyway, here it is again:

my desktop featuring samurize ;)

2004-02-23%20Monitor%202%20Thumb.jpg

Image is clickable for larger size

I've used some of FOOOD's icons in the System State part... the TV Guide icons are my own work, and the icons with the MSN part came with the script. The winamp thingie i made with 3 meters:

1 - background image of cd case + cd

2 - another image of the cd, but now containing an alert value when there is no track playing to display the 'Winamp is not active' text... I could have done this with another meter as well, but i wanted to do it like this ;)

3 - pie meter displaying the percentage of a track played (i set it to look like an overlay so you keep seeing the cd)

Hope you can give me some feedback on it :)

I'm currently using the sidebar samurize skin. I was wondering how I could incorporate the weather into it? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

I downloaded DesktopWeatherXML v1.4.zip from the samurize site (i would link it but samurize.com is down right now).

I unzipped it to the samurize directories. There should be a file named DesktopWeatherXML.vb script: choose the DesktopWeatherXML.vbs script

- choose the getCacheFiles function, it will be an empty object

- click the 'test script' button to tell the weather function to go out and get the xml file.

- for other functions...

- choose your function to get the info

- click on the 'test script' to display the info.

- for weather pngs, add a day[0-4].png image from samurize/skins/desktopweatherXML/temp

now.png is today, day1 tomorrow... and so on.

Oh yeah... read the readme.txt to change your zip code.

I'm still in the process of learning how to use it, but I hope this gets you started. If you look at the included config, it will be of great help.
