Hey i'm having some problems with editing the .ini file of the game panels: i don't know very well what i should do 'cause i'm new to rainmeter, i tried to copy the file path next to path= ( that's what it looked like after that :
[Variables]
Path="D:\Program Files (x86)\KONAMI\Pro Evolution Soccer 2012\pes2012.exe" ) but then nothing happened when i tried to click on the panel! I tried even to delete the "" or to move them in every possible location, but it didn't worked.. should i modify also the other file ( the panel.ini one ) or i simply did wrong "path" file editing?
Another question: how to change panel's images?
Thanks in advance and compliments for the skin, it's really great

You need to middle-mouse click on the panel to execute the path, if it doesn't work, then wait till tomorrow when I update it.
To change image, just replace bg.png in panel's folder or let me know what's the game you want in the picture and I'll make it for the next update.

Sorry, but this is a noob question: How do I edit the contents of these tabs? I want to:
Change the DA Feed to a different account
Change my 'Mail' Tab to show my Yahoo! Mail
Change the Weather Tab to check my cities
Add items onto the Notes Tabs
Plug my 'Automatic Updates' into my RSS.
Change the 'Launcher' panels.
I go into the 'edit' section, but I'm not familiar with the Rainmeter editing script in Notepad. Also, I can't find anything on their website about editing panels.
Am I missing something?

First of all, you wont find anything about my skins on rainmeter.net, because every skin is different and unique.
1. You can change only category of dA feed.
2. Yahoo are not supported for rainmeter, only Gmail.
3. See previous comments.
4. Look for tool tips to edit panels while hovering them with mouse.
5. I'm not sure what to you mean "Plug my 'Automatic Updates' into my RSS."
7. See previous comments.

I worked with it a little, but decided to go with a different skin. Thanks for the great work, though, and keep it up!

icon9=thunderbird
path9=C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Thunderbird\thunderbird.exe

He forgot to add the quotes around the #path# in [#path#] of the edit... just change [#path#] to ["#path#"]

first of all sorry for the double post...but i figured it out...FINALLY !
k, so instead of editing the single paths and whatnot, i edited the whole skin, i right clicked on the launcher then clicked on "edit skin"..
i scrolled down a bit and saw every app had this:
[1app1]
meter=image
imageName=Icons/#icon1#.png
X=60
Y=10
W=40
H=40
LeftMouseDownAction=!Execute [#path1#]
PreserveAspectRatio=1
Group=1
where it says "leftdownmouseaction=!execute(#path#) , i inserted some parentheses ( " " ) , saved and hit refresh and it worked !!!
so it ended up looking like this..
[1app1]
meter=image
imageName=Icons/#icon1#.png
X=60
Y=10
W=40
H=40
LeftMouseDownAction=!Execute ["#path1#"]
PreserveAspectRatio=1
Group=1
and i did that to all of the slots for the apps and now they all work !
thank you self, i owe it all to you! but really tho, this whole skin is dope it looks great

what website do you use for the weather code? I've tried yahoo and the weather network and neither appear to be working :\ unless I'm missing something which is more likely
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It uses weather.com and you need only to write your zip code and units, that's all.

When you hover the weather skin there appears a tool-tip text "Right-mouse click to edit." - click it and change 'LGXX0004' to your code.
Btw, those tool tips are for all the panels, so keep an eye on it.

Can you tell how use launcher ? How configure it, to start photoshop, firefox, etc. ?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Click on the biggest of three buttons, it opens configuration file and then you enter name of the icon (from those available) and path to the file or folder you want (e.g. "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4\Photoshop.exe"), then save and refresh skin, and you're done.

I know I've asked already but could you please make a Bastion and Limbo picture please?

Can you please make a picture for League of Legends? (LoL)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
This may be pretty late but i have made a league of legends picture for the game panels if you want it i could mail the image to you and help you set it up?
I made 400x95 pictures for LoL, minecraft, bloodline champions, dota 2, dishonored, civ 5, assassins creed revelations, FTL and gotham city impostors so if anyone wants one of those just message me an email adress. I'm pretty pleased with them but i'm not some sort of photoshop wizard so don't expect too much. Also there are no logos just pictures.
