Desktop Gadgets
Wednesday, February 14, 2024 by Dcrew57 | Discussion: Skinning
This is just a poll to see who uses Desktop Gadgets on a regular basis. As I see it not much interest. I really like skinning gadgets even though I already lay claim to 100 of them. If not much interest i am moving on to other programs, I will skin for some Artist upon their request to do so. I may still pop one out from time to time.
Thanks
Don

I use Winstep's modules...just easier, but there's a minus: The paucity of Winstep skinners.

The lack of responses says its dead program. I may look into winstep.

Those appear to be windows sidebar gadgets, not the same thing.

Define 'Desktop Gadgets'. As with DesktopX or another app?

I use rainmeter the most. Rainleander for calendars. I used to use Xwidget a lot.

No, these are not DesktopX widgets but standalone gadgets. There's a gallery here called Desktop Gadgets where I downloaded tons of them over the years.
They are made with DesktopX nevertheless.

I intend to start making DesktopX stuff again soon. Winstep as well.
Probably DX, rainmeter, winstep, and walls. Maybe a few cursors.

I used Rainmeter and Rainlendar, but usually on my own skin or default skin. No longer have time to decorate my desktop.
Thank you,
