Description Here we go again... Remember Desk Cloud ? Yea that thing, I've managed to lose all of my progress for version 3 made after January 2013. No worries, I'll be making it from scratch and I'll be updating this deviation whenever a major change is made or a couple of new features are added.
This .rmskin package currently contains only an under-bar that will be placed under the main section of the suite's layout (expanded in this screenshot), the under-bar part is not made yet. Most of the code is a place-holder and dummy code that will be changed later to add configuration skin support.

A mockup of the complete suite can be found here .

tl;dr
Alpha 1.0, 12/13/2013
• Contains an under-bar, second main skin in the suite. (~25% complete, open for suggestions)
• Variable registry file. (WIP)

To do
• under-bar: Make icons changeable and icon columns scrollable. Weather feed.

Credits
• Wallpaper: The Alps by ~zomx
• Icons: Modern UI Tiles Icon Set by *dAKirby309 (Modified without asking permission, sorry...)
• Player controls are from ~poiru 's Soita skin (Lazy me... I'll make my own later)
• Font: Purista (Medium and light)

Looks good. How do I set the program path for the icons? I see nowhere I can put the path in the ini file.

Use the inc file in the @resources folder to assign a path to an icon. Although there are still some problems with the paths, my outdated coding skills might be the fault, nothing that Rainmeter documentation can't fix.

Thanks! The only thing that will be different is the font, since it's like $40 a peace and I'm using light and regular versions. I'll need to come up with a free alternative.

Nice! No worries about asking permission, as long as credit is provided I allow people to modify and use my icons how they wish!

Thank you!

Yea, about that, I was going to ask you today, but you're already here ... anyways, I'm planing to edit some more icons when I finish with the code for them. You know me, I always give credit.
