It comes with the skin, open up the Encoded > Headers > Backgrounds > Black config.
You can edit the dimensions manually in the config file.
Thanks for the heads up. I don't really know much about mac customization so I just replaced it with a random tutorial vid i found on youtube. It may or may not be accurate.
im liking the whole quarter thing. i hope this can stay on the 1st few pages so people see it and participate.
also is there a good place for fonts?
HOLY SHIT!!!!!!!! This thread is INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!!!! I had no idea you could do this!
What is the theme you used for this one? I want something like that.
That's awesome... I have such fond memories of os8/9

that is cool. what do you use to create this look?
Huh, can't seem to find encoded... I open rainmeter and click on Elegance 2 > then see all the "headers" such as clock, date etc. But no backgrounds... All i see is "_dividers". This is the only thing that does not appear on the desktop when i enable either variants. Also have tried changing the dimensions in config file. Ah well, thanks a lot for the response mate, it was much appreciated.
Ah sorry about that, forgot that I was using a different skin in the OP.
But yeah, the background is from a different skin, called "Encoded".

another alternative is just to make a new .ini with this code (or insert into another skin's ini):
adjusting the W and H to any size you want.

Code:
[Background]
Meter=IMAGE
SolidColor=0,0,0,115
W=290
H=230adjusting the W and H to any size you want.
Oh man... this worked dude! Thanks a ton! Love the look of elegance!
I'm using this wall I made as my lockscreen bg. Really like how it turned out;
basically because i'm in syria which has supposedly banned iPhones, lol.
Quick question, is it possible to use the skinning tools in the OP on Windows 7 starter? Thinking of picking up a netbook (2 gig of ram but still uses starter) and don't feel I need to upgrade to home premium.
I have my main laptop skinned with it and would love for the netbook to match its looks if possible.

I wanna make my Windows partition look like this on my MBP, how would I go about recreating this (the Metro-style tiles etc)?
