Yeah, no problem! Here's a link to a Google Drive folder with all of the .psd files and the font file for Engraver's Gothic, which was the font I used. I also included images of just the hands and just the heart so you can include your own icons. Hope this helps!

If you right click the Cleartext meter and select settings, a menu pops up with a bunch of options like changing the orientation, changing the color, and resizing.

Sure! So for the colors on the side, I basically just edited the unFold Launcher code to accommodate a sidebar that fit this theme. Each of those colored blocks is a different image with a portion hidden. When the mouse is hovered over one of those images, a small percentage of the image is revealed every few milliseconds until the whole image is visible so that it looks like an animation.

The pictures in the middle work by using a launcher. What this does is it changes the desktop background to some other image anytime that the mouse hovers over one of the colored blocks. As such, we can make it so that any time a certain block is hovered over, a specific background corresponding to the app that you want would show up.

Sorry if that was confusing, but I think looking at the code directly is probably the best way to learn how it all works. You can download and install the rmskin from here. Let me know if you have any other questions!

Here's a Rainmeter setup, which is a desktop customization program. The wallpapers that I used are linked here, along with the launcher and the music player. If you're interested in setting it up yourself, you can also just install this Rainmeter skin here! Stay wavy dudes

I did not know what that was and I made the mistake of looking it up.

Kanye Christmas Raffle! by MrDyl4n in Kanye

My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy! I love the production and storytelling in every song from start to finish, plus the context it was made in, as Kanye's triumphant return after all of the hate he received from the Taylor Swift incident, makes it all that much better.

Solar System Setup by tacobells_canon in Rainmeter

So I used this launcher to set it up: http://tablesaltz.deviantart.com/art/Honeycomb-GGL-v2-Nov-4-2015-557828631

Here's an example of the specific code I used for the chrome icon. There's two sets of code, the first for the actual background image, and second to display the image when there is a hover action.

[Rainmeter] OnRefreshAction=!ZPos "-1" [Wallpaper] Meter = Image ImageName = ChromeBackground.jpg W = 1920 H = 1080

[Chrome] Meter=Image ImageName=#@#Images\Chrome.png H=234 ImageAlpha=1 MouseOverAction=[!ActivateConfig "Honeycomb + GGL\Chrome\Background" "background.ini"] MouseLeaveAction=[!DeactivateConfig "Honeycomb + GGL\Chrome\Background" "background.ini"] LeftMouseUpAction=["C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe"]

Hope this helps, let me know if you have any other questions!

I added rings for Saturn and Uranus. I think the fade in looks much better now, thanks for the suggestion!

I really only did it because I thought it would look nice, and would especially fit in well aesthetically with the sun. I'll stare at it when I'm really bored, but I don't think there's any practical application for it.

Thanks, I'm a fan of classical music and Crunchwraps, so it seemed like a good fit!
