    Hey guys I want to thank you guys for all the support on this video! I finally got around to making the custom honeycombs video (6 months late but better late than never): ruclips.net/video/K2lGf96SUV8/видео.html
    Also, a lot of you have been asking about the desktop wallpaper used in the video. That can be found at this link here: bit.ly/2Zj33ch

    (Edit: Can't believe people are geniunely interested whether I got the laptop or not but yes, I did get it! And it has been great, it helped a lot with online homeworks, reports, and online learning basically, I have been busy and forgot about this comment🕴and of course as soon as I got it I started looking for rainmeter hehe... I hope everyone will have a great year and so on and may your wishes and dreams come true!🌻)

      If you still don't know how to do it, I believe you may be talking about the Lockscreen wallpaper. In order to do this you right-click on your desktop, click Personalize and there should be something on the left that says 'Lockscreen'.

      Yes you can. In the rainmeter manager click on the tab that says layouts, then in the box that says name, give your preset a name then click save. You can load a preset in the box that says saved layouts.

      -------------------
      [MeasureTime]
      Measure=Time
      Format=%H:%M
      -------------------
      3) Edit format to
      Format=%I:%M
      4) save and refresh skin
