This isn't a theme but a mockup. =kiko11 did make a windows theme based off of this mockup though. You can find it here: [link]

Wow, thanks!
I'm working on porting it to Rainmeter and what-not. We'll see if I can get it to work out this weekend.

Nice work.

I started making a menu similar to this in rainmeter with a taskbar and a menu that pops up when you press a button. Haven't finished it yet, well I haven't worked on it for a while. I only started using rainmeter not long ago so I have been trying to work out how to create things in it. If you need help I may be able to help you as Ive done something similar.

Have you been to the rainmeter website. they have a manual on the website that could help you.

If you would like me to help let me know.

Bow-N-Aero In reply to JM--Designs [2011-04-27 20:06:34 +0000 UTC]

Yes, I have been to the site and done a few configs. They are just a sidebar and HDD bar so it really wasn't very hard. I probably will be asking around for help when I get to doing the Rainmeter, possibly this weekend. You will be one of the first I ask.

JM--Designs In reply to Bow-N-Aero [2011-04-28 03:18:47 +0000 UTC]

I'm happy to help.
Like I said I only just started using rainmeter and Ive tried making a few things so not sure how much I can help you with but I think I know a bit. Just let me know what you need help with and I will do my best.

James

its possible to do it with rainmeter but i m not so good with rainmeter xD btw pretty cool idea

Bow-N-Aero In reply to H2O4Life [2011-04-25 22:04:19 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I barely have any knowledge of Rainmeter. The taskbar should be pretty easy though. Pretty much a dock of text with a bg that opens when you press on the specific icon on the taskbar. Will probably work on that this weekend.

And thanks

Would be amazing, if you released it under Rainmeter, eg.

Bow-N-Aero In reply to SiM3j [2011-04-23 23:04:36 +0000 UTC]

Considering I'm not too good at programming Rainmeter, probably will not happen. That would be awesome though.

Nah, ask someone. I would download this one, even if it was paid!

Bow-N-Aero In reply to SiM3j [2011-04-25 02:23:08 +0000 UTC]

I actually think I now may do that. It would be a challenge and I do enjoy a good challenge here and there. Stay tunes, we'll see how it goes.

Just a suggestion. Don't make the bar just do the arrow itself

Bow-N-Aero In reply to Julianhorvat [2011-04-25 18:51:11 +0000 UTC]

I was thinking that but I kinda of wanted to conserve the taskbar look of the OSs. Maybe will be removing it in a later revision, we'll see.

Well, if it was under rainmeter, you can customize it easily
