Thanks guys.  More 'borrowed' stuff from the artists at VSIDO!!!

Hey falldown any idea what is causing two wind advisory's to show?



I didnt change anything except the location from the intellicast site


EDIT:

Disregard my lua noobieness (is that a word?) I figured it out

[falldown]

I am not sure.. The Intellicast show multiple advisories here.. for stagnant air conditions. 
I will dig deeper into. 

I think that is a word..

Haha if its not a real word it should be!


So now I really do have a question........

Is the background for the memory portion. Is this also where I change the size of that section? Like I wasnt to extend that background all the way down to my cpu area. Am I explaining good enough?

[falldown]

Yes.. correct.
The first

{d="arc_c",q=4,r=10,degs=90},
is the top left corner of that box.

Also

subtab={
{d="start",x=5.5,y=10.5},
{d="arc_c",q=4,r=10,degs=90},

This is the base solid background and the following

is the gradient overlay.

The bargraph.lua explains the different g=(gradients) you can use.

^ Thanks buddy

[falldown]

Anytime!! 

[jedi]

Falldown - Got it working awesome first try!  Awesome conky!  Couple questions.  In a post here on VSIDO, I saw a scrot of this conky on your desktop with a shadow underneath.  How do I get the shadow?  It looked great!  Next question, could I have the last.fm .png file your using?  It would make my life easier as I'm artistically challenged and have to st*** I mean *borrow* all my creativity from you guys!  It is a great conky! 

[incognito]

I see a lot of amazing work here.  I have a couple of questions

Do all of you use VSIDO who has posted here?  If so, was there anything else you need to install to run these configurations you are posting? I do not have much experience with Conky but I think I can learn by trying as long as cut copy and paste works and I can get some help if I need it

Thanks

Hello incognito and welcome to VSIDO!  I can't speak for "everyone", but I'd have to say that 99.999% of the users here use VSIDO!  Conky comes with VSIDO by default as does Tint2 which you may have seen on some of the configs in the form of panels and or icons.  In order to get and install VSIDO, just follow the instructions in the VSIDO Download link at the top of the page.  We'd be glad to have you...
It is a really great Linux distribution!

Made a change to one of my desktop 2 conkys.  And wanted to stop the crying - I admit it, I like Batman


although I did make him:  VSIDO Batman

The Conky - no longer just a Disk Activity conky, must change name.

Welcome incognito

I agree with Jed. And would like to add that it is not a requirement to be using VSIDO to even use our forum.  Stick around we'll grow on you.

Most distros today come with a default conky out of the box.  VSIDO is no different, however a few of us here are addicted to conky - and loving it.
