I made the image, it took me a while to make it being displayed and working, but no worries, I got it!!!
I also know how to put a sound effect and I have one which is open source free and no legal problems, awesome!!!
So, what else could I put to make the icon button look neat? Of course, FONTS!!!! - I'VE GOT FONT'S WEAPONS!!! - Sorry...bad joke, I am drunk probably, I don't know why I said that, sounded better in my head and typed it anyways!
I downloaded the fonts from here : https://www.fontsquirrel.com/
The font I am trying to use is this : Alex Brush Regular - it's in the 11th position.
What I did? I downloaded it, extracted it, installed it for just in case, grabbed it's tiny little ass and moved it to the resources folder and I went to edit my icon in rainmeter and I've made sure I followed everything right in any direction I read online. To my surprise, when I changed the fonts, it DID felt like it changed a bit, i.e. like, the words notepad moved a bit lower on the left, but just a tiny bit, assuming it took the change but won't display it.
This is my code, I will try to use brackets this time to not make it look huge.
EDIT : Forgot to say, I DID made a fonts folder and put the extracted fonts in it, I also restarted my rainmeter to make sure it was this problem, nothing, it is just displaying regular fonts. I am following the path as best as I can. I also read an older post of the user Jsmoley and tried to fix up any mistake I had, this is what I have now and the fonts just won't work.
EDIT 2 : I downloaded and used Jsmoley's RainFont, really good and detailed tool, found the font, it's Font Face is Alex Brush, so, I typed it like that, nothing happens...
