Is there any other programs that are easy to skin for like XION? That takes pretty much no coding experience like xml,vb........
Rainlendar is pretty easy.
All you need is .pngs and an .ini file (you can modify an existing .ini file to suit your image). It's all pretty straight forward
Thanks, I will try that out. Any others?
Rightclick is pretty easy too (not so many elements).

I will try rainlendar out tonight. Any tuts?
Here: Rainlendar tut
This tut may make it seem complicated, though.
The best way to learn IMO is to download a skin and open the .ini file to see how it's done. Don't worry, you can't break anything
Thats the way I like to do it, just needed some backup just in case.
Do the newer ones use xml instead?
Not that I know of
Sysmetrix
lol was gonna say that HG (I think Windowblinds is rather easy)
I agree. But easy like xion......no
Once I get rainlendar down, i will try out sysmetrix, then the one I really want to do will be windowblinds.
By the way SKoriginals loven your LORE skin (currently using).
If ya need any help with Sysmetrix just let me know.
I will, thanks for the offer

And just what is wrong with magic pink?
Hm, Sysmetrix doesn't work for me on 64bitwhich maybe because RAM amounts above 2 Gig. Same as DesktopX and other meters besides vista/7 Sidebar.
