ok so i am new to rainmeter......and i have basically figured out how to use it. One thing that confuses me is making skins and themes. I have a few questions:
What is the difference between skins and themes?
How to code and make skins ( i want to make a digital clock )?
I am a complete newbie! I need a lot of help!
Thanks a lot for your help!

Re: EXTREME NEWBIE!!! HELP!!
A "skin" is one of the little widgets that you can drag around on your desktop. Each skin is usually dedicated to a particular purpose: a clock, a notepad, an RSS reader.
A "theme" is a specific arrangement, or layout, of skins on your desktop. You can use the built-in "RainThemes" utility to save and restore these arrangements. For example, you might load a couple of dark-colored skins and save the layout as your "My Dark Desktop" theme.
As for how to make skins, we have a whole tutorial series called Rainmeter 101 to help you learn how to do precisely that. :)
