Hello and Thanks for having me

Post by Swiftshott »

Hello
I am Swiftshott
I am new to Rainmeter and also new to its forums.
I was looking for somthing to make my desk top different from the same old same old.
This looks like the place to get me just what I am looking for.
I would also like to start learning how to make my style and so on.
I know I learn best by watching and doing so I am hoping there are some tutorial vids to watch.
Well that is enuff about what I am looking for now on to who I am

36 yr old single father of 2 boys ( ages 6-8 )
I am a Car Salesman
I live in Kansas
In my spare time I make PS cs5 tutorials and Sony Vegas Tutorials on Youtube and if I learn how to work with rainmeter I am sure to make some for it as well
When I am not playing with GFX stuff I am playing with my kids or some online MMORPG

Welcome aboard.

This is a great place to start:

Then just grab some skins that look interesting from here:

And tear them apart to see how they work, then bend them to your will...

It's good to have this close at hand while learning:
