    I am currently transitioning from Vista sidebar to Rainmeter and have been finding info piecemeal in the "Show your OS" thread and elsewhere.

    So far, the only places I have found Rainmeter skins are:

    http://customize.org/
    http://www.deviantart.com/


    However I have found that customize.org is terrible at searching and sorting the skins and I have to rummage like at a yard sale.

    Deviant has some good ones, but the selection isn't as great as customize and a lot of the best ones are in French.

    Are there other sites that people are using?

    customize.org basically has them all...their isnt A LOT of skins.
    just take the time and look at every page on customize.org
    those are the only 2 sites i use.

    so anything for Rainlender also works on Rainmeter?

    I know they're similar programs, but can I use anything I find on that Rainlender link on my Rainmeter program w/o installing Rainlender?
