OBSIDIAN
I present you with OBSIDIAN, a skin for Rainmeter . A complete set of very small and customizable system monitoring widgets for your desktop.
WHAT IS OBSIDIAN?
Obsidian is a naturally occurring volcanic glass formed as an extrusive igneous rock.The name is derived from this because the color of that volcanic glass is Shiny Black & so are the color of the Widgets(Black and Glassy feel to it).
OBSIDIAN SUITE INCLUDES:
1.Clock - Shows the current time in 12-hour (AM-PM) format.
2.Calender - Shows the current date,day,month & year.
3.Drive - Shows the space left in a particular drive.U can change the drive in ini file.
4.Gmail - Shows the number of new mails of your Gmail account.Put your username & password in the ini file.Updates new mails almost instantaneously.
5.Network - Shows the current Upload and Download speeds.
6.Recycle Bin - Shows the items in the bin & their total size.
7.System - Shows the CPU and RAM meters.
8.Weather - Shows the current weather in your city.Put your city code in the ini file.Get the codes from weather.com

I really like this but can you make the white border around the sections darker or black? The white just doesn't look good with the theme. Thanks.

Good job on this! I have a problem though.
When I edited the line of text to change the location of the weather: "URL=[link] (notgoingtoshow)=m&dayf=6
Font=Segoe UI" it stopped showing the forecast. This happened before I found out that I had to change the settings in Gnometer. Even after changing the setting in Gnometer it still doesn't display any pictures or any text except the little circle for the "degrees" sign. Before I changed the text, it said something about xml or whatever but I don't know what that is. I'd really like to get it to work again with my location (as well as having it accurately display Fahrenheit instead of Celsius)!
Help please?

Tampa, Florida.
But wouldn't it be easier to just tell me how to get the link from weather.com to work along with the line of code?

copy & paste this line of code in the url section..
URL=ht tp://xml.weather.com/weather/local/USFL0481?cc=*&unit=m&dayf=6
