Description

Statica Color is based on work by TraversFX and Death of Rats

This is a mod of [link]

So far this mod has changed -

Fonts, event images, weather images, layouts/sizing.

Added -

Countdown window.
File window.
Moonphases window.
Photos window.
Time window.
RSS window.
Coloured event icons now display in event/todo windows.
New buttons below the calendar.

Countdown calculates downwards to a specific date. You can set the target day and the title from the skin's settings.

File displays contents of a text file. The widget is automatically updated when the file changes.

Moonphase shows the current phase of the moon.

Photos shows interesting images from Flickr. You can define how often the image is reloaded and if it's done randomly or not in the skin's settings. Note that this works quite poorly with copy transparency enabled.

RSS will show the rss feed from a given url. By default it shows the latest posts to this forum but you can define the location in the skin's settings.

Weather displays current conditions and the forecast for the given location. To change the location go to weather.msn.com, find your town and click on the rss-feed icon in the weather page and copy the url to the weather location field in the skin's settings.

If you want to edit this skin just change the filetype from .r2skin to.zip and unzip it.

Note that you need build 82 or newer to run these as this skins uses Addons.

Excellent skin, just what I was looking for. Thanks! The alarm buttons don't work anymore, but you can control the alarm with hotkeys. You need to add an LUA file to the scripts folder as Snooze and Dismiss are not listed in the drop down menu. Here is how to do it... www.rainlendar.net/cms/index.p… OR you can just choose a different alarm window from another skin.
