Suggestions for 2014 WC Community Project

from WinCustomize Forums

The last community skin we did was the Holiday Community Suite back in 2009.  I wouldn't mind doing another winter holiday suite, but that's for later in the year.

https://forums.wincustomize.com/363398/

So lets start getting ideas for the next community suite.  Do we go for a season like Spring or Summer?  Another holiday?  A different type of theme?

Lets hear it and discuss it and get moving on the next one.

This can be done using the ini format?
End of DaveBax's quote

 

no, that's not possible as INI as a format with only sections and options is pretty limited (you can do awesome stuff with it as you can see with Rainmeter, but XML as a format makes much more sense for Rainlendar) and Kimmo stopped developing that skin format long ago.

there is one thing you should have in mind: XML as INI is just a method to structure data, it is not a scripting language. you can script Rainlendar using Lua scripts, but you really won't need that until you want to create really sophisticated stuff. 

after all it depends on what you want to do. Rainlendar is capable of much more than the skins here at Wincustomize do (no offense, there's nothing wrong when people enjoy what they are doing, but almost all of them are paint by numbers). be it displaying more than one month, weather forecasts, rss readers, calendar and appointments in the same window, variables etc.

maybe it's worth learning something new, it might be even fun. :)

Hallo to all the great skinners participating to this Community Suite Project especially to bleumart !

well I couldn't resist, so here I am with 2 tray docks (one multiple)

maybe late but as the last one in play I hope you don't worry I used all your avatars in the preview as icons on the docks

(and also the cheerleaders) I'll wait for your "go" before to upload ;)

Very well done frankell. :thumbsup:

many thanks for the positive feedback mates ! |-)

well the multi dock is the one at the top of the preview, in some way I was inspired by the teddybearcholla wallpaper

simply the tray dock was replicated 4 times in a perspective design and the layers have 4 degrading degrees of transparency  ;)

For anyone interest on needs help with making their first Rainlendar using the ini format. I have updated the Help instruction about 3 days ago. You can find the link on page 18. 

This has been a very nice project for me to be part of and would like to thank everyone for their support.

You've made a great contribution not only with training up young members to master a new program... but also in your Rainlendar tutorial which will have ongoing benefits for all...  and a lovely Rainy to boot..  ;)

Thanks Dave...  :star:
