L-Clock for windows XP

Posted on 8:35 PM by Alive Asif

LClock brings Windows' standard clock a nicer look and an easier-to-use calendar that features a basic alarm system.
Once installed, LClock enables you to completely change the clock's appearance, while also replacing the old calendar system with a new calendar that you can check out with a single click on the clock. LClock is compatible with XP, but skins for the app no longer seem to be available.
LClock calendar reminders show up in a pop-up window when triggered and can be scheduled to be repeated at different intervals. The calendar can be customized with skins, although the skin management system is poorly implemented: you unzip the skin archive to the program's folder - this overwrites all previous files and makes it a very uncomfortable to change from one skin to another.

LClock is a better, more customizable clock and calendar solution for Windows.
Pros
  • Improves Windows clock and calendar
  • Support for reminders
Cons
  • Skin management is difficult.
LClock also comes with a simple but configurable popup calendar that opens when the systray clock is clicked. No more double clicking on the clock just to view the calendar in the "Date and Time Properties" dialog box. The calendar also contains reminder feature found in Rainlendar.
LClock with different skins:

Please check back often for LClock updates.

note:
- To use a skin, unzip the skin files to where you installed LClock.
- Use "LClock Properties" to configure LClock and Calendar.
- If the background of the clock(black or flat color) or clock text(blurry) mess up after a theme change, just exit and start again.
- If you are upgrading and having problems, please uninstall previous version and delete old ini files.
- Windows x64 please install LClock first then download this: LC64.rar. Follow the instructions in readme.txt. It is alpha, so please report any bugs you find. Thank you!
