Where to copy Rainlendar files?

Tuesday, May 2, 2006 by Samsi Semoye | Discussion: DesktopX

Are Rainlendar (WinCustomize downloads) like Widgets? I downloaded a few but they constitute a number of files. Where do you place them in order to work?

I don't know if I do it the accepted way...but:
After the chosen RL theme is D/Led (I put'em in a folder on the desktop, say, called "Raineys")
I click My Computer>C:\>Program Files>Rainlendar>Skins, and leave that open on half the desktop
I unzip or otherwise get the D/Led rainey file to where it's got all the extra stuff pared away, like the other "Skins",
Then just rightclick/drag the new one to "Skins" and choose "copy".
Done.
Then, if Rainlendar has been open the whole time, restart it and you'll see your new skin!

No, rainlendar skins are not widgets (i.e., they are not stand-alone executable files). You need to copy the folder with the .ini file to your rainlendar "skins" directory. By default, this is "C:\Program Files\Rainlendar\Skins" I hope this helps!

You do have to have Rainlendar, the program, installed first (see link here at WinCustomize to get to the site)
It's shareware, but well worth it!

Exactly what seldomseen said in post #1... and don't forget to refresh or restart rainlendar for your new skin to appear in the skins list!
