It's been a while since i posted a screenshot of my desktop. i just updated this from crunchbang intrepid to jaunty. i forgot i wasn't running straight ubuntu and now half of my apps are gone :(

[myxiplx]

Well here's mine. This is my first attempt at really customizing my desktop, after discovering conky two days ago. My conky is largely inspired by Jecho's setup:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=7174389&postcount=1419

Overall it's two screens, 4 desktops, and a two line taskbar since I have a bad habbit of keeping way too many programs running :)

[unoodles]

Here's mine. The idea is that everything on my desktop has to be black and white, except there is hints of blue in certain places. Opening windows uses the burn effect, with blue flame. Closing windows uses the beam-up effect coloured blue.

Following this theme, I use the black-white 2 style icons (http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/black-white+2+Style?content=72619)
The GTK+ theme is darklooks (http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/gnome-themes-extras) (in gnome-themes-extra)
Fonts are all ttf-droid (http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/ttf-droid).

[Giant Speck]

A little more work on my theme. I decided to test out some small-caps fonts and rearrange some stuff on my desktop. I also tweaked my theme a little bit.

What userstyle/theme did you use to get those awesome firefox tabs?

[Giant Speck]

What userstyle/theme did you use to get those awesome firefox tabs?

Make tabs appear as buttons:


@namespace url(http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul);
.tabbrowser-arrowscrollbox + stack {
display: none !important;
}


@-moz-document url(chrome://browser/content/browser.xul) {
tab {
padding: 0 !important;
margin-top: -1px !important;
margin-bottom: 1px !important;
margin-left: 1px !important;
}

tab:not([selected="true"]) {
-moz-appearance: button !important;
}

tab:not([selected="true"]) > .tab-middle {
/* you can change the background color of active tab here */
}

tab[selected="true"] {
-moz-appearance: button !important;
margin-left: 0 !important;
padding-left: 0px !important;
}

tab[selected="true"] > .tab-middle {

}

tab:focus > .tab-middle {

}
}

Change tab close button


@namespace url(http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul);

I don't know why, but I really like your desktop. I know all the elements amd it takes almost zero effort needed to get it but it still looks - good.

[Giant Speck]

how did you get your bookmarks in the menu bar?

Right click the bookmarks bar and click "Customize." Then drag the text that says "Bookmark Items" and drag it up to the menubar. Once you've done that, exit the customize window and right-click again to remove the bookmark toolbar.

[Russell Burrows]

Wow.
All those desktops are very cool.

All I have on my desktop is a single menu icon and a single folder icon that are very small.

My desktop images are just playing an anime, action, sci fi, horror or kids movie and hitting pause on a scene I like then I select take snapshot and that image ends up being my desktop wallpaper image of the day or sometimes the hour.

For example yesterday we were watching the movie Advent Children that I got on blu ray and I was running the backup copy on the laptop and out to the HDTV when a pal says that Clouds motorcycle is huge and I say yeah nice desktop image and my pals say that movie is just out so forget about getting any wallpapers since the movie is so recent.

So I just went back frame by frame and then just hit take snapshot and viola! wallpaper!

It works even for snapshots of Nova episodes and other shows as long as its a video file its easy to get a snapshot and pow! instant cool desktop.

If Ubuntu wants to stay to it's roots, using brown, it should incorporate your theme. By far the best brown-ish theme around.

He is using the xfce desktop environment. The right click is one of the components there.

Though I have my own question: your menu... are the icons there larger than normal? Do did you do that?

Wow! That's quite an impressive xp effect. What did you use to achieve that, and how usable is it?

Ubuntu could fool a lot of users looking like that!It's called GnoMenu.


Sorry for the double post, but what is that menu by your mouse cursor in the top center? I'm seeing that everywhere but can't find what it is.Using Xfce, not Gnome. When you disable desktop icons in Xfce 4.6, right-clicking on the desktop displays your apps menu.

Yep, compare against my own desktop...yet I'm not really sure on 2nd look, or if it just different screenshot/monitor sizes.

I also agree the quality here is really good, can't keep up!

Might just be your icon theme. The things that can affect menu icon size are:
- fixed vs. scalable icons (can change in icon theme's index.theme)
- GtkMenu/MenuItem size/padding settings.

Emerald: Galactic (created myself - let me know if you want me to attach it)

Panel (xfce4-panel), left to right: Xfce Menu (w/ Command division icon), Places, Action Buttons (Lock Screen), Launcher (w/ Federation pin icon), Task List, Disk Mounter (xfapplet), Screenshooter, Volume Applet (xfapplet), Notification Area, Clock (xfapplet)
Overall icon theme: OSX_Aluminum (see Xfce-Look (http://http://xfce-look.org/content/show.php/OSX_Aluminium?content=99140) - it goes better with the theme)

Successfully cleaned up and modularized my desktop widget code and each widget creates its own window rather than taking over the whole desktop.

Now I mostly just want to be able to set the font without screwing up some layout stuff and have the lyrics widget truncate properly.

Next I want to see if I can patch gmrun to match, like that it would remind me of the run dialog in gnome-shell.

as usual,
gtk is custom
emerald is custom

But there's nothing in it :confused:

I've actually got the Indicator Applet there (though it only shows up when pidgin is there) and I've got a notification area there as well, only it rarely shows its face (I disabled nm-applet, not very useful for a wired connection). Also have pidgin-screenlet.

The taskbar completely auto-hides and floats above apps, it comes up when the mouse is hovered over it. I also got mintmenu which is from Linux Mint.

Actually, this is Mint, BUT Mint is Ubuntu, with an extra package or two. (They call it minitifying.)

Considering that lots of people post Mint screenshots, another crowd uploads from Arch and other distros, and one person posted a Windows 7 screenshot, I don't think that really matters.

Maybe there should be a whole Web site just for uploading desktop screenshots. I'd write it.

A setup using screenlets that doesn't look horrible??

No! It can't be!!!!!

I really love the panels!

[mjheagle8]

Considering that lots of people post Mint screenshots, another crowd uploads from Arch and other distros, and one person posted a Windows 7 screenshot, I don't think that really matters.

Maybe there should be a whole Web site just for uploading desktop screenshots. I'd write it.

The WM theme is Miro but not released yet :) and the GTK is breathe pink

Thanks. I guessed it would be breathe, but I wasn't sure.

what's that menu you're using? i gave up on deskmenu, finding the combination of xbindkeys and gmrun (those are what those two are called, aren't they?) most suitable for me.

That's compiz-deskmenu, m'friend. Bound to ctrl-space via the Compiz settings manager. Then I use gmrun for my execute command dialog. I don't think I have xbindkeys installed at all, actually.

[ajy0852]

A sort of minimal setup, although I am using Gnome & Compiz (I guess simple is a better word).

- Metacity from earlier in this thread
- Custom GTK
- wallpaper from interfacelift
- meliae-dark icons
- the right-click menu is Popdown (http://www.manatlan.com/page/popdown).
- Gnome-panel with huge system tray, that's not normal for me. I tend to end up on Openbox/Tint2 eventually from time to time.

Yeah I tried Screenlets over and over in the past and never kept them, even though on KDE4 I loved using Plasma widgets. It was mostly because the default screenlets look crappy and ameteurish. The pidgin one is beautiful though, very OS X-ish.

KDE wallpaper,
Panther window borders,
sexy sexy ClearlookOSX3.5 icons(you'll never go back to anything else if you try them),
and the greyed-out icons on the right of the seperator in the bottom panel are minimized windows as shown by Gnome DockBar - no ugly WindowList, and no need for AWN ;)

No problem. You can also use the Shiki-Colors firefox userstyle. It adds the Firefox 3.5 urlbar, adds support for fission extension, and fixes other annoyances in dark and hybrid themes (such as dust and newwave dark) that the firefox devs should have added in the first place.

Yeah, those white borders are annoying as hell. I've not been able to fix them at all. There are, however, a few ways around it:
1. Upgrade to firefox 3.5 (I tested it and it seems to be fixed there).
2. Use an older version of clearlooks or murrine (the ones that came with Hardy don't have this issue).
3. Copy the CSS code from an existing firefox theme, such as Dust. You'll have to edit the pixmaps in GIMP, though.
4. Use the pixmaps engine to draw GTK entries, like NewWave.

Well, I'm not quite finished getting conky to load in the right places yet, but since I only reboot once a month I guess it'll do. :D

Has to be said, I'm loving 9.04 now. The graphics is a mess, but the audio more than makes up for it. I've got full integration of the play/pause controls on my keyboard now, which combined with RhythmBox, last.fm and Conky is a match made in heaven as far as I'm concerned.

And pulseaudio *nearly* has working support for my Airport Express, once that's working I'm in geek rock heaven. :)

everytime i've tried the animated skydome, i thought it looked like a video game. so, i too the panorama that i used for the four desktops and condensed it. it looks a little like the mountains are all around me, but they don't look like they're being sucked into some supernatural vortex nonsense.

edit: i guess the cube still looks kind of goofy, though.

what's that menu you're using? i gave up on deskmenu, finding the combination of xbindkeys and gmrun

Been away for a bit so pardon the delayed response. You do realize you can bind keys with compiz itself, right? In CCSM, General>Commands

i use xbindkeys in openbox now, too, but i had forgotten i could do that with compiz itself (too busy starting fires with the fire gimmi... uh, i mean plugin and trying to put them out with the rain plugin, i guess). that might be fun to play with. thanks for the reminder.

Last day for the OroboROX murrine theme

Where can I get new window decorations for Kubuntu? They don't have an option to install new ones under 'Windows' under 'System Settings'.

Now that has to be confusing, but I like the idea :)
