View current time and add a clock to your taskbar.
Skinny Clock is a freeware utility helping you to show date and time the way you like it. One way to watch the time is a clock window, whose look can be adjusted via a skin. There are several pre-made skins available within installation, or you can even design your own skins. Each skin can contain info about its author and it is recognized by all Skinny Clock versions, so that you can become a famous clock skin designer;o). The clock window supports alpha transparency at the window and skin levels, as well as input transparency. The second way to watch the time is to override the taskbar clock to show the time using format and font of your choice.
- Simple
- Effective
- Customisable
- Works beautifully on Windows 7 (Ultimate x64)
Cons
- A few time/date formats missing for day ordinals and time zone.
- Installer house cleaning needs some improvement.
Summary
This is the taskbar clock & calendar you've been looking all over the web for. If you are looking to replace the totally inadequate default clock then this is the app for you.
If like me, you're a Mac OS X fan at heart then then this nifty tool will get your status/task bar clock to look way it should: all on one line, at-a-glance and in a style that looks truly 'professional'.
The help pages included tell everything you need to know to get what you want, and the author has done himself proud and deserves a well earned shout of praise and recognition.
Thank you!
