Rainmeter is one of our newest galleries here on WinCustomize and Rainmeter is really a cool app to put some cool gadget on the desktop.  I wanted to show off some of the latest Rainmeter skins we have on WC.

Very well to discover Rainmeter but in when of new suites using the novelties of the version 2.0 only one is just available on the site! Gnometer.

If I understood you correctly you're saying only gnometer is available here. Uh uh, I have all but two skins for Rainmeter and that totals about 6 or 7. Something like that.

B2R: I'm not quite sure I understand you, but from Rainmeter.net there are three featured suites available - ABP, Enigma, Gnometer available and the software itself comes with the default 'illustro' suite. I am trying to spread the word to more rainmeter skinners to upload their work here, so hopefully you'll see more skins in the gallery here.

That would be very nice.

Thanks to all for this precision.
I did not say that the only suite which existed was Gnometer but it is the only one which recently requires: Rainmeter 2.0.0
I modified ABP suite to test the various functions before leaving in the creation of a personal suite...

I have to agree with others, it's not cooperating. I  installed 2.0 and downloaded Vark, but it wouldn't install it. Only thing it would do was run illustro. A vark configuration window would open, but the skin itself never showed on the screen.

Did you create the shortcuts?

The configuration skin runs the first time Vark is launched and should also be run every time you want to manage shortcuts.

Note that in order to start up the skins, you can either use the configuration skin or start them manually by right clicking on the rainmeter icon at the taskbar notification area and open the skins you want from there. Do note that in order to create shortcuts, you can also use the tools without the configuration by going to Documents/Rainmeter/Skins/Vark/Resources/ and running the appropriate application.

 

I hope this helped you
