Just got my primary monitor replaced with a beautiful 19" one. :D Went from 1024x768 to 800x600 to 1600x1200. oh yes, it is happy.

General things:

rainmeter should be installed with *NetInstallModule rainmeter-0.9 load rainmeter.dll
You are using "$ModulesDir$systray2-lsbox.dll" in traybox.box without making sure anything is installed with that name. (and it looks like the position is too far down? it overlaps the stuff below it)

Multimonitor:

ckvwm does not work well with multimonitor systems
jdesk-0.70 will result in popups only working on the primary monitor (use 0.711 and change the edge order for *jDeskSetDeskArea)
and ckHotspots is really broken with the way I have my monitors arranged. I fixed that once, but what did I do with that...

With one monitor, I like how the winamp controls pop up (esp if they work with foobar, didn't test that) and the rainmeter looks neat. :)

Oh, and you should probably use OTS $AudioPlayer$, etc. for defaults in themevars.rc (heh, you almost keep your stuff like I do, except I stuffed it all under c:\bin :)
