RAINMETER skin for HT-enabled CPU's

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
I made a Rainmeter skin for dual-cpu's (i.e. 8887's with 3.06GHz processors) for anyone interested (who uses Rainmeter).

It's fairly small and nondescript, 800 pixels by 22 pixels, brownish color theme and it measures:
CPU1 CPU2 (percentages & bar graph)
RAM used (bar & MB)
SWAP used (bar & MB)
Network IN & OUT (in KB/s and w/ indicator lights for each)
and drives C: - E: (GB/MB free)

Of course, as anyone that has used Rainmeter knows, it's all pretty customizable.

You can find Rainmeter here and it's a slick little monitoring program.

If anyone is interested in the skin for dual CPU's, let me know via PM. The Author of the program may also be putting it up on his website soon, as it's the only dual-CPU skin out there right now. Also, I can include the Xara X vector image so if you want to change/customize the graphic and you have/know Xara, it will be that much easier.

Oh I forgot, you can also check out RAINLENDER, which is a trés-cool transparent little desktop calendar app!

You can find that here and a picture of the transparent one that I'm talking about is here... enjoy!

Great skin! I see it was optimized for 800x600. Do you actually use this low of a res? It's way to big for my liking, now that I'm used to 1600x1200.

No, I only wanted it to cover half my screen (well, at the top little portion it occupies).

I use WinAMP+Playlist in windowshade mode next to it, and if you center both (side-by-side, centered on screen) you can have enough room on the right and left for the window buttons (when you have a maximized window - like the minimize button and the menu button).
