I spent a while building this one, as far as I know it works perfectly. Let me know if you find any bugs!

Re: Transmetropolitan - Full Comic Book Suite
That's quite original. Never seen anything quite like that before. Nicely done!
Have more fun creating skins with Sublime Text 2 and the Rainmeter Package!

Re: Transmetropolitan - Full Comic Book Suite
I agree, very nice work!
Some notes:
Some notes:
- The Comic Page background is included as a skin, or a wallpaper? I couldn't find it.
- The font can't be found because it isn't in the right directory. Create a @Resources\Fonts folder and place it there.
- Consider changing LeftMouseDownAction in the email skin with LeftMouseUpAction. They do the same thing, but the latter allows you to move the skin without pressing the Ctrl button.
- In the Date skin, you had big Y values in the meters, which didn't let the skin go all the way up in the screen (close to the border; that is, with the KeepOnScreen setting enabled). Those values aren't necessary, so you can remove the Y setting in the [bg] meter completely (thus setting Y=0):
and set Y=15r in [MeterTime].
Code: Select all
[bg] Meter=IMAGE X=160 ImageName=Date.png W=265 H=30 PreserveAspectRatio=0

I downloaded the updated version. It seems that you have misspelled the "@Resources" folder as "Resources", so the font still isn't loaded correctly. Renaming that fixes it.
I encountered some other problems with the weather skin that I hadn't noticed before, though. You include the settings.txt file using @Include=#CURRENTPATH#settings.txt, however the settings file isn't inside Weather\, but inside #ROOTCONFIGPATH#. So, the include line should be: @Include=#ROOTCONFIGPATH#settings.txt.
Besides that, there are three image meters in the end of the file that don't exist in your skin (remnants from Flying Hyrax's code):
And if you would like a last piece of advice, try merging all those variables files into one, because as it is, (3 of them) it creates confusion.

Like other comics. Like a spiderman one for instance.
