Rainmeter skins are pretty popular these days and besides being the popularity of Rainmeter itself being a factor, Rainmeter skins are really trending because they are written in the simplest languages and anyone with even slight knowledge of the right coding language can customize every single bit of these skins. And even for non-coders like most of my friends out there, Rainmeter skins are pretty easy to customize and match their requirements.

That looks pretty impressive but I’m not much one for skins. I’ve got an app that changes my desktop image every 15 minutes picking an image from a directory of my choice and I’m pretty happy with that.
Well, I think that feature already integrated into Windows 7.
Rainmeter is a lot more than just wallpapers..
I wouldn’t know I’m still using XP.
I understand that it does a lot more, it’s just that at the moment I don’t have the urge to install it.
Hey Karan,
Rainmeter is really an awesome software for skinning your desktop, I had used it in the past but currently I am not. Thanks for sharing this skins, I think I am having the urge of installing rainmeter again and using one these cool looking skins.
