Re: Fabulous February's Screenshot thread
My first screenshot of the month, and my probably my first screenshot since coming back from winter vacation as I've been pretty busy lately. No, I'm not posting a (K)(X)(L)Ubuntu right now.
Full-size screenshots here:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...nshotArch2.jpg
Another shot of my Arch Linux install, running the KDE desktop. I've gotten Arch to work very well for me, having learned some of its inner workings. The wallpapers are ones that I've used for my KDE installs before, a pair of custom-made (by me) Hatsune Miku wallpapers. The rest of the interface, I very much mimicked my Kubuntu install... using a Mac OS X style interface.
All in all, pretty much anything I can do on Ubuntu or its derivatives, I can do in Arch just as easily with a little manual installs and some compiling from the AUR. So a part of me is wondering whether I should make Arch my primary Linux in place of Kubuntu, my secondary Linux in place of Bodhi, or whatever. :D
Computer: Desktop
Distro: Arch Linux
Desktop Environment: KDE Plasma 4.9.5
Plasma Theme: Amakage (from KDE-Look)
Window Theme: Oxygen Transparent (from AUR)
Color Scheme: Obsidian Miku (modified from Obsidian Coast)
Left Wallpaper: custom-made Vocaloid 2 "Hatsune Miku Collage 1" (16:9 version)
Right Wallpaper: custom-made Vocaloid 2 "Hatsune Miku Collage 2" (16:10 version)
Icons: Oxygencolors v6.2 (Cyan color)
Dock: Docky ... features include: Anchor logo removed using gconf, Custom launchers for Takeoff Launcher, Plasma Activities, Dolphin, and link to my Zelda fanfiction... all with custom icons, all pre-made before dropping into Docky
Special Features: Dual displays, Takeoff Launcher

I really like the one on the left (with the white fence).
My current (wallpaper) theme is Steampunk. I love it when HowToGeek posts their wallpaper collections.

"Fabulous" February? Now it reminds me of something...
By the way, it's been a while, Ubuntu Forums. And really a "while," since I've been getting on my PC running Windows, and left my Ubuntu laptop running as a media server.
For once today, I tried having the PC off, and borrowed the monitor...

Thanks ;D Yes, it is pure KDE and Kwin. My own personal layout, which came from preferring the ambiance and Ubuntu layout, but not really caring for the Unity Dock or App menu layout, so consequently moving to another DE.
The theme is "ambiance" which you can get in the "get new desktop themes" dialog.
After which i kinda just contorted and moved panels around and junk, and using Cairo-dock.

Ah, I see. Thanks. I forgot I had tried the Ambiance theme already but got rid of it because I like to have the bar on the left side of the screen, and with the Ambiance theme the panel looks a little funny when it's on the side. One half of it is darker looking than the other.
Here's my KDE setup, currently using the Fushigi theme and Cairo dock.

Nice :) Of course the best thing about KDE, is the customizing options, to the point we can make it look pretty much anyway we desire, and even mimic other DE if we so choose.

One thing I liked about Unity was the global menu. I just found out you can get KDE to behave the same way! Who knew? You just need to install plasma-widget-menubar and appmenu-gtk (the latter to make it work with GTK programs).
This is just FYI, of course, but it makes me happy. I distro-hopped for awhile but I think I've definitely settled on KDE-based for the foreseeable future. I really like the configurability, and in my experience KDE apps and utilities just work better without as much fiddling. Okay, I'll step off the soap box now.
:D

Oh, wow, that's fun. The one thing I find myself appreciating whenever I use a Windows 7 install (have not yet owned 8) is the ease with which it can be made pink. The purple is weird, striking, and quirky.
I'm ridiculously happy with my current setup with Pantheon on 12.04. All the bits just seem to be working together for once. I couldn't believe that Plank actually properly supports Chrome webapps, totally without fuss.
Clean and with some windows open in a highly improbable arrangement.

I was actually able to do that with Docky when I was test-running Peppermint OS... a Lubuntu-based distro that's centered on web apps. Granted, not all the web apps I ran were Chrome apps, but I had them made in Ice and dragged them from where the .desktop files were into Docky with no fuss.
That aside, I have another screenshot of my Arch Linux install.
Full-size screenshots here:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...rch2rosa-2.jpg
This is largely the same desktop as in the previous screenshot, except for maybe a tweak or two to the desktop. Aside from a few Docky additions (that aren't seen due to the ROSA Launcher), I'm now running ROSA Launcher instead of Takeoff Launcher. As nice of an app launcher as Takeoff Launcher is, it still lacks the ability to shutdown/logoff/suspend directly from the launcher, unlike Kickoff, Lancelot, and ROSA Launcher. To me, that's a crucial feature.
On top of that, this is the latest stable vanilla ROSA Launcher, which comes with a solid background image. I disabled the background, preferring my translucent Plasma widget theme, and I recolored the Lock and Shutdown buttons to match my Hatsune Miku theme.
Tweaking sure is fun... and is the real beauty of most Linux DE's.
note: I also included my previous screenshot to illustrate KWin's Blur effect on transparent Plasma widgets and windows

DobsonM, thanks for the clarification. Very cool - it's getting hard to tell user-modified Shell from the 50 different Mutter forks in play right now. = ) But it's very attractive.

Yeah, and Plank is a Docky fork. It used to work with DockBarX and Unity, I think, but Chrome changed their handling of webapps, the windows identified themselves differently, and the docks couldn't tell them apart again.
With Plank (and presumably Docky) now, it's as simple as going to Chrome's menu to create an "application shortcut" for the "applications menu," running the app, and pinning it to the dock - no command line or file managing involved - although I still edit the .desktop files to make the icons Faenza instead of the default favicon. = ) (Oh, and I should say, that works whether or not the site is a Chrome webapp.)

Yeah, I'm used to having a Quit menu indicator, but I like that Synapse offers session actions, too. I guess it was not so bad all those years of Windows putting Shut Down in the Start menu. = )

We burst (froze) a copper water pipe in January. It was 10 F in our basement.
