Description

Here is a guide to create a windows 8 screen in Omnimo Rainmeter

(BTW, i don't really like Newgen)
__________________________________________________
Check if you have x64 or x86
For x64: Download !hameddanger's "8 Skin Pack" from ---> [link]
For x86: This [link]

2: During the installation, choose custom. There will be radio boxes for you to check. Uncheck Newgen in the extras folder.

3: Reboot.

4: Install Rainmeter from here: [link]

5: Install Omnimo from our good pals fediafedia and Xyfro: [link]

6: Once you have omnimo up and running, download some addons from here: [link]

7: Resize the icons to 120 by clicking the lower right corner of a tile

8: Use the addons and the options to rearrange them until they look like windows 8

9: Wallpaper: [link]§ion=&q=windows+8+dev#/d4a2lpe

10: I uploaded my Omnimo backup, but you have to do some resizing also

The current Windows 8 start screen looks a mess though I wouldn't suggest it to the folks. If you want to see a minimalistic style using Omnimo check my work :0
