i2 bar
-------

About
--------
Get this idea from VPR Litestep, you can find this skin at [link]
This is my replacement for dich rainmeter (I used this skin since I had made it!!)
I'm sorry for people who use higher or lower than 1280 resolution ><..
This bar have many features inside, from cpu stats until weather (I have deleted 3+from Hday weather) and also ANIMATED time bar, volume control, recycle bin!! (you must love this one)

Installation
---------------
For Beginner User:
1.Install the font first into C:\Windows\Fonts
2.Copy i2 bar folder to C:\Program Files\Rainmeter\Skins
3.Open Rainmeter
4.Right Click Rainmeter in System tray
5.Choose configs\i2bar\...

For Volume Control
In order to use this bar, you must install Nircmd
1. Open Nircmd folder
2. Double click nircmd.exe, choose "copy to windows directory"
For Recycle Bin
In order to use this bar, you must copy RecycleManager.dll into C:\Program Files\Rainmeter\Plugins\
I have included all those files into this rar file

Usage
--------
Volume Control
Left Click on Speaker : Mute and Unmute Sound
Right Click on Speaker : Open Master Volume (For Vista, you must change inside the code, find the word "sndvol", you will know what to do after you find it)
Left Click on Positive sign : Increase Volume
Left Click on Negative sign : Decrease Volume

Recycle Bin
Left Click on Bin : Open Recycle Bin
Right Click on Bin : Delete Files
The numbers show the items and how many big of your files that are in recycle bin

Short Troubleshooting
----------------------------
1. My temperature is equal to 0, how come?
- I bet you're using Vista or 7, unfortunately the plugin (CoreTempPlugin.dll --> this only support XP) doens't support Vista and 7. So you have to use another plugin, that plugin is SpeedFanPlugin.dll
Try to search in Google, find the script and change.

2. How can I change my weather location?
- You can find your location code in weather.com then right click computer stats bar and choose 'Edit Skin'
change the code into your location code.

3. When will you make for other resolutions?
- Well, I need someone help to me. My screen resolution is only 1280!! That's why I cannot make for higher resolution.
If you're willing to help me, just send email to shinji.ed2@gmail.com

Position Configuration
----------------------------
1.Arrange your ANIMATED time bar, volume control, recycle bin below the Computer Stats bar like in preview
2.Right Click Computer Stats bar
3.Choose Skin Menu/Click Through
4.Right Click one by one all ANIMATED bar
5.Choose Skin Menu/Position/Bottom

Another great job.

I haven't downloaded this yet so forgive me if the skin already does this.

A bottom bar would be nice. Someone will ask. Might as well be me.:)

Maybe you could provide a background image that extends further left and right and provide a way for the user to define the width? Just a thought. For instance, I'd like to try this but mine is 1360.

yeah, I think it is a good idea about bottom bar, I should do this.. haha..

For another resolutions, let me ponder..
Maybe I need someone help to do this kind of problem, my screen resolution only 1280..

With all the additions and everything this is really, really nice work.

I'm trying to figure out an arrangement to use your 1280 with my 1360 and stay looking minimal. Maybe I could make a sidebar, another section of your background or something to take up the slack. My problems, not yours.

You've done too much good work in RM. You make it hard to decide what to stick with.

BTW, you probably already know that the Weather.com solution may not be permanent. Depends on how much abuse it gets, I guess.

I don't know what you mean..
We go to weather.com only to get your location code..

I'm referring to the recent need to change the url from XOAP to XML. They still may catch on and shut that down too.
