generated quite some liking, I've decided to teach everyone how they can customize their desktop using rainmeter. But first, there's a little tweaking you'll have to do. It can be done manually which is quite tough, so just do it using the 'Theme Resource Changer'.
Download Theme Resource Changer from here:

Download

4shared

0.8MB .zip

OR
Download

google Drive

0.8MB .zip

Open the rar archive you just downloaded. It has two files in it. Be careful which one you choose.
1. themeresourcechangerX64-v10.exe
2. themeresourceX86-v10.exe

Now, before you just open any one of these without thinking, be sure what you're doing. The X64 and X86 represent your windows architecture so be careful as to what your windows version is. If you aren't sure, do this,
     
  1. Right click on My Computer.
  2. Select properties.

  3. What you are looking for is under the system tab in System Type.
So once you know which architecture your windows is based on, just install that version of the Theme Resource Changer (TRC now on)
When you open TRC, it'll show a screen like this:

Only the difference will be in the right side. The 'Patch' will be available for you, so just patch all three files and then restart your computer.
