You can't go wrong with something that goes with everything.
For some reason weather is not showing anything..... anyone an idea?
Replace only the following measures from skin.ini file.

Thank you very much for this skin. I want to inform you that I've created my own Skin here, partially based on your skin. So some of the credits goes to you as the original creator.
i cannot get the music player to come up. what steps do i need to take to get it to work?
How do you add text to the hard drive?
You need to rename the drive directly in Windows Explorer
My C drive's name is Local Disk but it just say C, however my other drive is fine.
Local Disk is applied to drives as standard by Windows. You need to name it yourself
for some reason i can't get Spotify to show up on the media player... any solutions?
Have you set it up in settings file?
Is it the "VAR" text document? Because I set "Player=Spotify" and "Playerexe=C:\Users\Kevin\AppData\Roaming\Spotify\Spotify.exe" but the player still does not appear on my desktop. I tried changing it to iTunes and WMP and they seem to work...
Have you tried updating Rainmeter itself?
Yep i have the latest version installed. I'm suspecting its Spotify itself after I downloaded a newer version. Unfortunately I can't downgrade so I can't figure out if it's really Spotify that's the problem....
Yeah.. It's probably Spotify that changed something and made it no longer compatible with NowPlaying plugin.
But just to be sure, can you try spotify with this skin?
