And here's mine for today

OroboROX theme: Kymatix2 with noir scheme
GTK theme: Nodoka Midnight
Wallpaper: Remnants from zixpk.com
Minor tweak: Swapped memo for simple clock. Put a symlink to memo in the autostart folder (hence the alarm clock in the systray)

And once again, the attachments aren't working properly

Really should get around to finishing that game. Just a shame that the PS2's version has such laggy controls.

DIY Thumbnails

Run scrot with the following argument. -t or --thumb NUM (where NUM is a percentage of the original size). I think something like 20 would be a good place to start for most screens. You can also use a -d or --delay set to whatever value you like if you want to minimise the terminal (assuming you're using a terminal) before the shot is taken.

Upload both versions (full size and thumb) to your favourite image hosting site.

In the reply options select Insert link and paste the direct link to your full sized screenshot in the dialog box.

Then click on Insert Image and paste the direct link to your thumb in that dialog box (the Image link should be embedded inside the url link)

Voila! A thumbnail that opens up the full sized image
