Mmm, that's not working. Nothing happens when I click in there.

I'm guessing that RainInput.exe is not being fired. You have a problem with how things are installed or how they are being called in the skin.

You want to zip up your whole SendTweet folder in \Skins and using MediaFire.com host it and post a link here? Then I can take a look.

If you catch this in time, put xxxxx and xxxxx where your id and password is before you zip it.

Oh, I think I figured it out.

The ProgramPath in RainInput.cfg was incorrect. I changed it, and now... well... it works, but when I click, the blue box that I'm typing in actually appears on the other side of the screen [the right side, I put the skin on the left]. So now it's just that the boxes don't line up. I might be able to handle that.

Thank you for the help, though. Much appreciated.

Just CTRL-CLICK in the field and you can drag it.

Ah, yep. Thank you!

Having gotten all of this figured out, I like it quite a bit. I'd like to start using Twitter, but I could never be bothered to go to the website... now that I can see Tweets and Tweet from my desktop... well, it's quite a bit easier. XD. Very nice.

Sidenote:
Is this possible for .txt editing, too?
Because if so, the editing of notes etc will be alot of faster & better.

No. Not what it is designed for.

Sounds like the addon .exe is not being executed for some reason. You need to be sure that the .exe is really where it is supposed to be.
