This .conkyrc draws the following:
-- Checks for wireless; if on, displays the wireless icon
-- Checks if Rhythmbox is running; if so, displays mouth and speech bubble, if not, does nothing
-- Writes system info
-- Displays conkyForecast

This file was written for a desktop of resolution 1024x600. If you want it to run effectively on a monitor with a different resolution, you may need to alter the positioning of the Conky elements.  Please see http://conky.linux-hardcore.com/?page_id=144 for more info on ${goto}, ${offset} and ${voffset}.

In order to use this Conky, you will need to replace <directory> (several instances) with wherever you choose to extract these files. (Best to do a find and replace.) You will also need to replace XXXXXX in the call for conkyForecast with your location code, as per the instructions here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=869328

Requires:
-- Conky version 1.7.1.1 with imlib2 and wlan enabled
-- Background wallpaper, announcement.jpg (a 1024x600 version is included in this package; see the credits for the original source, which has many more resolution choices)
-- font: saxMono, from dafont.com (included)
-- font: Denne's Old Handwriting, from dafont.com (included)
-- wireless_icon.png (included)
-- speech_bubble.png (included)
-- mouth.png (included)
-- Rhythmbox + conkyRhythmbox
-- conkyForecast with 7-day patch, as detailed here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=7725578&postcount=1508
-- conkyForecast.template (included)

Credits:
-- Background wallpaper: thanks to Eremit for uploading; original can be found at http://abstract.desktopnexus.com/wallpaper/59848/
-- font: Denne's Old Handwriting, written by Denise Bentulan
-- font: saxMono, written by s.a.x. Software

I do not personally take credit for any of the artwork in this package; the only part of this package that I generated is .conkyrc and the conkyForecast.template.
