Finally, the DK Skins have been released. DK is a themed set of skins all 50 pixels high, designed to plug seemlessly together.

They're all in the skins library, but I feel they need a little explanation. Here's what's available:

DK Digital Clock

Digital clock. Nothing really special, but fits in with the DK style.

DK Moon WM

Moon phase monitor for Weather Monitor! Works off Wunderground nicely (see providers file in the attached zip file). 2 dataslots, primarily designed for moonrise/moonset times.

DK Network Monitor
[Image: dknetmon.gif]
Network monitor with 4 dataslots (ideally Connection, IP Address, Inbound, Outbound. Fully commented ini file for easy customisation of line, solid line or picture displays.

DK System Monitor

System monitor with CPU, PAGE and MEM display. Fully commented ini file for easy customisation of line, solid line or picture displays.

DK TLB Version

Keep an eye on your favourite quick-launch replacement and shell enhancement, True Launch Bar, with this plugin. Displays the current released version, and also the latest beta release. Be the first to get the latest updates!

DK Weather
[Image: dkweather.gif]
Weather monitor skin with support for night and day icons (easily modified through the commented ini file).

DK Weather Ultra
[Image: dkweatherultra.gif]
Weather monitor skin with support for night and day icons (easily modified through the commented ini file) and extended weather information. 3 extra dataslots for Windchill, Visibility and Dew Point

DK Wind
[Image: dkwind.gif]
Weather monitor skin for display of wind data only. 2 dataslots designed for wind speed and wind gust speed.

Finally, I've attached a number of Provider files that cover UK and Canadian weather channels, TLB Version, Wunderground Moon data, etc.

A full version of all these skins will be released in a format compatible with the new 2.2.0.14 RC1 skin install feature. Watch this space!

Finally, a big thank you to QSection, who was a prolific beta tester!

Enjoy! Big Grin

There's no way to resize a skin, it was designed at this size...

Btw, that skin looks awesome, HorusUK... I'm considering resizing my taskbar for it Wink

The DK Skins portfolio has been updated!

They're all in the skins library:

DK Weather Picture
[Image: dkweatherpicture.gif]
Weather Monitor skin with 2 dataslots. Fits in with the DK Style, and will have a companion text-only module released soon! I made this in response to sites that gave all the data that I wanted, but didn't show day & night icons. Now, you can have the weather picture from one site, and with the text modules I'm writing, the data can come from another site.

DK Zodiac
[Image: dkzodiac.gif]
A companion to DK Moon WM for Weather Monitor! This is a skin for the TLBMoon plugin, that shows the current lunar sign in the DK style.

DK Network Monitor 32
[Image: dknetmon32.gif]
Network monitor with 3 dataslots (ideally IP Address, Inbound %, Outbound %). The difference is, it's only 32 pixels high! Once again, there's a fully commented ini file for easy customisation of line, solid line or picture displays.

DK System Monitor 32
[Image: dksysmon32.gif]
System monitor with CPU, PAGE and MEM display. 32 pixels high, to match DK System Monitor 32. Fully commented ini file for easy customisation of line, solid line or picture displays.

Enjoy! Big Grin

HorusUK, you have outdone yourself, again! We look forward to trying the WM using two different providers! Then perhaps we can get ALL the data we wish into one WM!
