From trying to make RMXP RGSS scripts to designing many game HUDs... making a skin with Rainmeter was like second nature. I really like the combinations of style, easy navigation, and monitoring performance with simpler coding to setup your graphical gadgets interface that you can share for others to interact with their windows pc.GAME_GRID is my very first attempt towards learning Rainmeter and making an original TRON theme/skin.

Isn't there an option in most to change the wallpaper as well? Maybe associate the colors with the wallpapers as well. If you're going to do this, tell me what size you want the wallpapers and I'll resize them.
