Rainmeter

[Frank]

Downloaded this, as it looked cool, and just wondered if anyone could run me through the basics and its a thread to show off anything you've created from this.

any good tuts or anything please?

That is my Rainmeter desktop. I used RocketDock with it(left side), and downloaded Raimeter skins and mixed & matched. I just messed around with it, and added/removed bits.

i downloaded rainmeter and don't get how to use it all..

hmm, i want the goal.com feed, and you can get a fb notification feed.

You just need to get a skin with the RSS feed, and then edit the XML, which is easy. I got mine from DeviantArt, which has loads.

This is how I've got mine set up. The right side is mostly Gnometer, also using SUPERCOLOSSAL clock, Weather and Enigma's Gmail thing. The CD cover thing is CD Art Display (own program, not part of rainmeter).

Useful guide to give you an idea on configuring it - http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/31705/beginner%E2%80%99s-guide-to-rainmeter-display-system-stats-on-your-desktop/ - But after that it gets as complex as you let it.
