uTorrent won't show the torrents that are going on... no idea what is causing it, the one that you based this work on does show them. any clue what the issue might be? aside from that.. loving the skin, great job

Also, I just loaded up this version, and it works for me. So no idea if that^ doesn't work

First off, don't compare it to the one I based it off of, It has changed way more than it may appear. And as far as the torrents not appearing, i'm not quite sure.. first, check if they show up in the browser; paste this in the url: http:// #USERNAME# : #PASSWORD# @127.0.0.1:8080/gui/?list=1 (#USERNAME# being your username, #PASSWORD# being your password). And make sure you set it up right (read the readme), with webui.token_auth set to false, a username and password set (what you use in the skin), and port 8080 on the webui page.
If it still doesn't work, just wait for the update i suppose, cause it's working for me right now. I'll be releasing v2.0 very shortly.

you don't even know how much work 
it's not flashy, but I didn't just copy someone else's work and make new graphics, like 90% of skins. I actually kind of did the opposite (borrowed graphics & very little code). 90% is from scratch, things like the uTorrent, and the soon released (later today) improved mail are a first for any skin I've seen 
Anyway;
anything I can do to make it more appealing to you, just let me know and I'll do it.

Also, I am not sure how to change to add/remove text in the notes. I right clicked/left clicked, etc. and nothing happens.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
If you read the README.txt, i'm pretty sure I went over all basic mouse-clicks, if I missed this one, I apologize.
Edit is double-right-click, copy is single-left-click.
If you don't like this, you can change it; open the file and search for this:
LeftMouseUpAction=!Execute ["#CUR......
RightMouseDoubleClickAction=!Execute ["#CU.....
there is 5 of them, one for each page. Just change the mouse click you wish to use (Current "LeftMouseUpAction" is for copy, "RightMouseDoubleClickAction" is for edit).
you can use ;
"LeftMouseDownAction""LeftMouseUpAction""LeftMouseDoubleClickAction"
"RightMouseDownAction""RightMouseUpAction""RightMouseDoubleClickAction"

Okay thanks, maybe I should have read more carefully. Always used to double left clicking. Thanks.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
well I don't like double-left-click because 99% of the time you want a single-left-click, so using a double-left-click forces the single-left-click action to occur. And I don't use single-right-click because it's easy to do that unintentionally. I suppose it's just what I'm accustomed to using (double-right-click), sorry if you're not

I like the look of the skin. I just hope some more of the basic things such as Weather and Clock are added. When I right click the calendar, it disappears -- any ideas why? Also maybe there will be a version that is just normal and not pop-out/slide out versions? Thanks for your work and efforts. +fav.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
1.)There is a clock, just super simple because I don't use it, if you give me an idea, or a design, I can make it happen.
Other things such as Weather/System stats etc. will eventually be added, and/or I encourage you to make them.
Also, if you have a preference; slideout/popout for a weather etc. skin, let me know so I can make that version.
2.)The calendar is set to disappear on 'RightMouseUpAction'; if you don't want this, edit it and search: "RightMouseUpAction=!RainmeterToggle DTP\Calendar" and simply delete it or comment it out.
3.)when you say "normal," do you mean the windows without the tabs? so they're just always visible? - if so, you can just not use the tabs. if not, more explanation please.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
1. For the clock, I was hoping there would be one that would be matching the rest of the skins. Here are some ideas: [link] [link] [link]
2. For the weather, here are some ideas (if interested): I will PM you 2 configs, and you can edit/change them to match the theme. They are simple and should go well with the theme.
3. Yes I was referring to windows without the tabs, so they are always visible on the desktop, so we can also peek at the desktop and are able to see the notes/weather, etc. without having to always click tabs. Maybe I have to find a way to delete the tabs (to save some real estate), but not good with creating skins.
Thanks again!

1.) I will look into that, and most likely make one shortly (working on another project at the moment).
2.) I will look at those and reply there..
3.) You don't have to use the tabs, they are there own config (which I intentionally did), so you can just disable them, and enable only the main config.
if you look at the folder structure it's like the following
"DTP\email\email"
the first 'email' folder has the tab (just disable), the second has the main config (enable).
and you're all set.
for the slide-out tabs, if you want them always open, you'd have to change in the config files the following:
in the [rainmeter] section, simply add :
OnRefreshAction=!Execute [!HideMeterGroup hide][!ShowMeterGroup show][!ShowMeterGroup 1][!RainmeterRedraw]
and the tab will still work, but it will start out open.

Aw yes, Devin Townsend, lol.
Anyway, I really like this idea, would it work in a transparent version as well?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You could always just change the transparency of all the images I suppose, if that's what you mean ?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I know, but I meant a different style. If you make the skin transparent now, it would be unreadable (because of the white letters).
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well it would only be unreadable on a white background... I'm still not 100% sure what you mean by 'transparent.' The background currently is slightly transparent, enough that you can read through it, it's just dark. Anyway, if you want a different style, you'll have to do it yourself.
