NOTE*
Be careful when changing fonts as well as font sizes!The images in conky have a set position, so if you change the font or size of the text, the text will move up/down while the images will stay in position, making it look out of place.
If you wish to change the font you can fix the problem in 3 ways:
1. Either change the size of the font until your images are in position
2. Change the position off the corresponding images.Search for "-p" and manipulate the neccesary values.
3. You can also move the text up/down by adding empty lines in the conkyrc.(enter/backspace)
