Skinny Clock

Skinny Clock is a fantastic freeware utility designed to help you display the date and time in the way you prefer. The software comes with a clock window that can be customized by adjusting its skin. With a variety of pre-made skins available within the installation, you can also create your own skins to make your clock window stand out.

Each skin can contain information about its author, and these skins can be recognized by all Skinny Clock versions. This recognition feature can make you a famous clock skin designer. The clock window supports both alpha transparency at the window and skin levels, as well as input transparency.

Another great feature of Skinny Clock is the ability to override the taskbar clock to show the time using the layout, format, and font of your choice. Clock skins can be created using captions with formatting strings, polyline vector primitives, and bitmaps with alpha channels.

All components of the skin are drawn with designer-defined alpha and anti-aliased to ensure smooth graphics. You can add as many elements as you like, and the easy-to-understand skin-definition file structure allows you to specify the order of overlaying elements.

Finally, Skinny Clock is available in several languages, including Czech, English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Svenska, and Brazilian Portuguese. You can also create and use your own translation. Overall, Skinny Clock is an excellent software tool that delivers a personalized, customizable, and high-quality clock experience.
