Post Your Desktop Thread **56k**

You need to change the root of the HDRI material to the HDRI image. Must be the HDRI that makes it take ages.

Yeah did that. Had to create a partition to make an f drive as I wasn't sure how to point it to look in a different location for that file. My colours didn't come out as bright as yours though. Mine was more orange than red like yours is so probably settings are different somewhere.
 
Would anyone have a link to (or kindly make a thread) somewhere explaining how to make your desktop look like dicehunters or siebs? I can't find any good ones...

My desktop is pretty standard, all i'm using is a dock and Rainmeter for the clock and date. I also used the settings in ObjectDock to permanently hide the taskbar.

For the dock i'm using ObjectDock

With the Token Dark icons

IAminal in Rainmeter in your weather widget have you added the location? I think your local code is EIXX0046:1:EI

What skin are you using?
Open Rainmeter, Skins tab, find your skin.ini, right click it and edit and search for weather. You'll find something like this http://weather.yahooapis.com/forecastrss?p=USCA1192&u=f
USCA1192 - is the city code , replace with your city code from here https://www.edg3.co.uk/snippets/weather-location-codes/
f - is for fahrenheit temperature, replace with c if you want Celsius
Save and refresh the skin.
 
Thanks :d and would you be able to help with token dark? I can't find any help on the web for windows 8
Edit: I think I've figured it out

Haven't used ObjectDock in a long time, but if I remember correctly you add programs to the dock, right click the icon you want to change and select dock entry properties > change icon/image and browse to where the icons are.
 
It's very tedious :( might get around to it later, btw thanks to you guys for all your help with this :) I'll post mine here soon(ish)
 
Yea it takes a bit to set it up, but after that it looks nice and you rarely make changes...or at least I rarely do changes.
 
My current one, may have been posted before. I have quite few that i collect and get a new one every month or so :).

I would post my desktop but i have 1 icon the trash and windows bar on bottom with ts3,file,chrome ,steam, and spotify. Use your imagination with you will (win7 transparent)
