Neat program, dont know if you guys know about this one
This is a neat little desktop customization program that helped me convince some of my friends that i was actually in the beta testing program for windows 8... lol... its called Rainmeter, and can be found here
heres a pic of how it transformed my desktop:
I have a network meter, hdd meter, itunes/WMP monitor, and a calendar that is linked to my gmail calendar and can give me alarms... Love it, but havnt gotten to play with it much yet. Skins can be found all over online, including at deviant art. oooh, and the big dial in the middle is a combo cpumeter, network, hdd, clock gadget... i think its neato

For ideas and really cool desktops done with rainmeter check out lifehacker: http://lifehacker.com/tag/rainmeter/
Most of their featured desktops use the program.

I just messed around with Rainmeter for a bit. Does anyone know how to lock everything in place? Whenever I exit and load it back up, everything is in a huge pile in the one corner on my main monitor. I haven't seen anything saying how to do this yet.

2 things i would do, 1 if its not something you will click on then right click skin menu, and "click through" also, save it as a theme in the rainmeter menu when everything is in place :banana:

Thanks dude. I'll try that out. :)

Ugh, whenever I exit a fullscreen app it does the same stupid crap. This program isn't very useful to me if it constantly dumps all of the widgets into a pile.
