Browser is firefox with the User Styles add-on displaying this thread with the "Ubuntuforums VB4" user style.
Conky is a modified (colourful) "Ubuntu conky" with a lua script for the rounded corners and transparency etc.

Edit: a better view of the conky colours ... the top image masks the bar colours a bit ...

This will be the last of this for me. I guess it is a new adventure for a small time.

I have more Arch Linux screenshots since is my primary Linux. However, just yesterday, I switched desktop environments and moved to Cinnamon. With KDE Plasma 4 in maintenance mode only, a number of KDE apps have switched to Plasma 5 standards, thus Qt5. The newer apps still worked wonders, but most of my Plasma and window themes (namely Oxygen Transparent) were incompatible with said Qt5 apps, and looked like vanilla Plasma 5 oxygen. Plasma 5 is still a young DE with not a lot of add-ons available for it yet, so it was time for me to make the switch. I may go back to KDE Plasma once more add-ons and themes are made for it.

As for Cinnamon, I managed to do much of what I had done with KDE 4 and went with my usual blend of my usual Mac OS X style desktop, complete with dock and global app menu, with some sprinkling of Chrome OS transparency. In addition, I made some changes to my dock, with some of the dock items activating various GNOME Pie menus. All in all, it's new desktop environment and a number of new apps (traded KDE ones for GNOME/Cinnamon ones), but keeping a very similar look
