The real question is what you're downloading.

Games.

There is the rainmeter manual with the list of commands...

How to trigger stuff?

Um....something like this:

Spoiler for :

[Images0]
Measure=CPU
IfBelowValue=60
IfBelowAction=!execute [!RainmetershowMeter Chara1] [!RainmeterhideMeter Chara2] [!RainmeterhideMeter Chara3] [!RainmeterhideMeter Chara4]

IfAboveValue=60
IfAboveAction=!execute [!RainmeterhideMeter Chara1] [RainmetershowMeter Chara2][!RainmeterhideMeter Chara3] [!RainmeterhideMeter Chara4]

The measure is the CPU %.
If its below than 60 it will show the image 1 and hide all the others, if its above 60% it will hide all except image2. That is basically how it works.

Thanks you very much!

I must be weird, I switch my wallpapers at least once a week.

Right now my backround is an image of Michael Phelps at a press conference(don't ask) xP

Oh and for that matter where did you got these HDD icons?

I have MacFUSE installed with the NTFS-3G plugin which allows writing to NTFS formatted drives. After that I just Right Click the drive, Get Info, and copy the icon to the drive as I would any other icon.

Mmm, I guess simplicity for the win?
The lack of RAM that I have prevents me from making an extravagant desktop picture.

I freaking love lucky photo-shots sometimes. This photographer managed to take a split-second picture of a F/A-18 Hornet releasing it's flares. Touched it up a bit, and well it became my new desktop.

Usually mine is anime-related but this time it wasn't. Just posting it reminds me that it actually looks like a really creepy photo for the first time, I think I'm used to it by now xD
Though I think the cuteness of desktop rena counterattacks the scary picture...hopefully?

Now I know not to bother asking when Windows since it's Rainmeter. But what is your calendar in the bottom left?

I also see I didn't answer the second half of your question: All of my drive icons (and my CS4 icons) I made myself.

[Skyy]

That's Rainlendar for OSX

And you can get skins here^^

Can you please share your icons?

EDIT: updated my desktops:

Vista:


Leopard:

Spoiler for Desktop:

Using CDArt Display w/ Foobar and Rocketdock. Pretty simple, but I like it.

I've been going anti-anime wallpaper lately for some reason:
