0 +jamesyfx Subscriber² Posted October 28, 2007 Subscriber² Share Posted October 28, 2007 Theres only Winbar that I've ever heard of. But again, it hasnt been updated in years. I'm not sure if 'bar' style stats are 'in' anymore. It's more widgets and gadgets nowadays. http://www.winbar.nl/screenshots.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Isys_uk Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 (edited) Coolmon is newer than either statbar or winbar but development seems to have stopped. I use version 1.00 with text colored to suit wallpaper and transparent background. Set 'on top' and it fits nicely in title or toolbar of any window. It's different anyway. Mr Spoon, your links have nothing to do with the topic and are simply spam. Edited October 28, 2007 by Isys_uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 jimbo11883 Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 I'm still developing my InfoBar application, which supports Vista glass, colorization, etc as well. You can get it from my web site at http://www.nightiguana.com/ I'm still working on it, so everything's not done yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 slyder0244 Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 your infobar looks good i've been needing a replacement for winbar for a long time once some more features are added i can't wait to use it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 NienorGT Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 Using Samurize you can make better stuff than all this... You only need some time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 BioTecK Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 I'm still developing my InfoBar application, which supports Vista glass, colorization, etc as well. You can get it from my web site at http://www.nightiguana.com/I'm still working on it, so everything's not done yet. For years I've been using Statbar and I always was looking for some other alternative, but I wasn't able to find one... Now when looking at Infobar, it looks pretty awesome! Have been trying for a couple of minutes and I like it. The only things which "doesn't work" is dragging and dropping shortcuts etc to the Quick Launch.... If I get this working, I'll definitely write a review about this on my blog! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 BioHazarD0649 Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 Having a System without handy fresh real time information from its hardware performance is like to fly a plane without instruments , sadly i don't see a solution for 64 bit systems users and i want night iguana infobar to come back again , was a piece of art that we will miss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 kslen Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Does anyone have a copy of the InfoBar installer laying around? Seems like http://www.nightiguana.com is down. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 kslen Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Jimbo has set up a Source Forge page and will be releasing InfoBar including the source code there! No software available yet, but I guess it's just a matter of time before it shows up. :) http://sourceforge.net/projects/infobar/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 kslen Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 InfoBar installer executable is now available at http://sourceforge.net/projects/infobar/ ! The best StatBar replacement for Windows 7 I've tried so far. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 jimbo11883 Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 I don't have much time for InfoBar anymore, but I placed it on SourceForge for a good reason... I opened it up to anyone to check out the source code, and to help improve it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 kslen Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 I tried it during my hunt for a replacement when Night Iguanas site went offline and I find InfoBar to be more attractive tbh. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 kslen Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Working fine on Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit here at least. :< Though, I removed all but the Vista and Windows 7 skins during install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
