I'm Ahnìon -- Ahni to my friends. I'm a gloriously dysfunctional thirty-something oddball from Norrköping, Sweden, bent on doing things according to a highly personal set of obscure aesthetics.
(I also like long walks on the beach and writing long, overstructured sentences.)
I stumbled over Rainmeter after finally giving up on adding more than the absolute fundaments of desktop widgets through my preferred shell: bblean. (For those who aren't familiar with it, bblean is a fork of BlackBox4Windows, which in turn is an MS Windows rewrite of the old Linux X-Windows shell BlackBox. It's generally minimalistic and function-oriented.)
So far, my experience with Rainmeter has been very positive, and though I have friends who prefer more GUI/set feature plugin oriented widget engines, I find that the simplicity and versatility of the Rainmeter feature set fits my personality to a tee. Also, I think that the idea of having the visual side done entirely through scripted skins calling generalised binaries makes a lot of sense in contrast to having a heap of binaries with visual representations that conform in varying degrees to a central norm (which seems to be the case in most widget systems I've looked at.)
If I do eventually post any of my skins, they are likely to lean heavily towards function-oriented, aesthetic minimalism.
I suppose that's it... oh, yeah: the sign in my avatar is a personal rune sort of thing. It has no connections to any secret, occult societies, alien deities or other contagious memes. It is quite safe to behold, I assure you.
Iä, iä! Cthulhu fhtagn!
Well met, folks. Glad to be here.
