#GEEKTOOL TEMPLATES INSTALL#
Rainmeter should automatically install the skin and display it on your screen. If you need a tissue or something at this point I'll wait for you. Now, for a couple of helpful tips to get you started through this wonderful maze of awesomeness. First thing is to get rid of your task-bar. My suggestion is to Auto-hide it so it only comes up when you mouse over it. Just right click on the task-bar, uncheck "Lock the Task-bar" if needed, and click on properties. Now click on "Auto-hide the task-bar" and click "OK" to accept your changes. This should hide it, giving you a more seamless look to your new desktop. Next you want to do is hide all your icons, you don't need them anymore because you're rocking Rainmeter now. That's not to say delete them, just hide them. Just right click on your desktop, mouse over to "View" and click on "Show desktop icons." Voila! You're desktop should now be a full featured Rainmeter displaying machine. Moving and customizing Rainmeter is as easy click and drag. For example, don't like where that cool circle thingy (technical term I know) is at? Simply click and drag it to where you want. Furthermore, you can customize everything about your display. If you hover to where it says "Avengers" you'll find a whole list of helpful additions to add to your desktop. Let's say you would like to have a display that monitors your RAM and CPU usage, simply hover to where it says "CPU and RAM" and click on the corresponding ".ini" file. The appropriate graphic widget should pop up for your viewing pleasure. Just move and arrange it any way you want. Now remember, customization is the name of the game. So, we can customize the button layouts to open any folder or program we want. You just need to dive in and mess with the code a little bit. In fact, there are a lot of helpful hints located inside the code to get you started. A lot of times it's simply a matter of copy and paste.
#GEEKTOOL TEMPLATES UPGRADE#
Well, that should get you started with, dare I say it, the Ultimate Windows Upgrade you could ever possibly hope to do with your PC. Like most things in life, just dive in, start messing around and push buttons to figure out what works best with you in this Rainmeter of a world. Don't be afraid to hop on the messaging boards over at DeviantArt or if you have any questions about the program.

It's a free open source customization, which means there are a lot of helpful people out there.
