One question, though. How do you access the applications menu? Or is that what the tiny button in the bottom right corner is?

Hey man, I'm loving your desktop....can I ask a couple of questions:

1) How do you get the workspace "one, two, three, etc" in your task bar? I dont know how to get them named.

2) How do I get that RSS feed (please dont say conky because I cant get my head round it!!)

3) Are they Eikon icons?


Thanks mate.

2) How do I get that RSS feed (please dont say conky because I cant get my head round it!!) It is conky, and you can find the configuration file in his signature block.

3) Are they Eikon icons? They certainly look like Eikon icons.


Thanks mate.

I hope that helps! :D

[etnlIcarus]

1. I am using xfce4-panel with it's pager plugin but last I checked, you could go into gnome-panel's pager applet's preferences by right-clicking on it and choose to, "show workspace labels", or something to that effect.

2. Yeah, it's conky. In my sig, there's one by the name 'conkyrsstemplate' which if you open with a text editor and scroll down, has something like the following:

###FEED 1 URL### ###FEED 2 URL###
###FEED 1 URL### ###FEED 2 URL###

Just replace the hashes and hash'd text with the URL of the feeds you want. Adjusting the rssbar for different screen resolutions is a tad more difficult, however.

As for conky being a tad abstract, keep playing around with it. I found it daunting as well but after trying screenlets as discovering one bloodly desktop applet could use > 10mb of RAM, I went back and forced myself to learn & love conky (and it's 1mb-per-instance footprint).

3. Yes, Eikon2, with a black folder mod by (I think) Sand and Mercury.



And Giant Speck: now that I've got a monitor with a decent contrast ratio, changing the murrine gradients and highlights was less an optional endeavour and more a measure to save my eyes. Oy vey. I almost feel guilty for subjecting people to my older screenshots.

[mikebeecham]

Thanks guys for all the info. I know it seems a little 'lame', but I'm trying to understand how conky runs, autostarts, how to configure, etc...but it's doing my head in.

If anyone has any free time on thier hands, and might feel like helping walk me through it, I would be very please to hear from you.

Again, I know it sounds lame, but I would be more than grateful to hear from you.

Fluxbox theme is called "Royalty". GTK theme is vorta. Wallpaper is called "wallpaper.jpg" (lol??).

Two conkies as the bottom display time, load and cpu. When mpd is playing music, 3 more conkies and 3 music control icons appear at the top.

Desktop & filer is Rox. Dock is rox plus some scripts of mine.

@Giant Speck, I have one hidden panel at the top with application menu, tray and etc ... :P
You can notice its shadow ...
And the small icon at the bottom-right runs the terminal.
Actually I added this bottom panel only for the screenshot.

Rox doesn't have a dock :?

It has the rox panel, is that what you mean? And if so... how did you manage to get it to be transparent?

I must have that :D

On topic. Here's my first for August

[coldReactive]

I know I'm going to be outcasted for this, but here's my Windows 7 RC Desktop, nope, can't get RTM for the life of me.

Replace Mozilla Firefox with Minefield.

I may post later with a linux desktop, but don't count on it until next Ubuntu release.

Yeah, sorry, it's not the rox panel. It's just rox icons ordered as a dock. It's just that - icons ordered to look like a dock, although the icons themselves function the same way as the icons on a dock (the OS X one, i think). For example, you click on the firefox icon, if firefox is not running, it will start. If it is already opened on another desktop or is minimized, it will bring it to focus. There are also some scripts to show some counts (like unread email & rss) in little blue dots on the icons (again, as the OS X mail app).

[motang]

I though I wasn't going to have anything to post today as I haven't changed my theme on my desktop (dust) or laptop (shiki colors) for a while now. But I was browsing Ubuntu wiki for incoming art for Karmic and ran across Nine (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/Nine). I hope this would be included in Karmic along with Dust and New Wave, as it looks really cool.

Oh my... it's like Macchiato, Dust, and the theme I'm currently working on all mashed into one. Nice!

[Subban]

Wasn't happy with the last one, it was nice but just too much for working at the machine. Toned down the wallpaper and tried to improve usability again. Tried to keep things clear and concise, still completely loving the font Aller, its so damned incredibly readable I find and the ever faithful Terminus terminal font.

Posted a clean and busy screenshot.

I believe they are being usability/consistency tested, since Karmic is testing.

I have Openbox with the Onyx theme. The wallpaper (slightly modified) came off of 4scrape. And there's a pair of conkys on there too.

Can I ask how you got that kind of transparency/opacity/blur on the drop down menus?

[cc8balla]

New theme for the month.

Using Crunchbang, and of course, Openbox.

[coldReactive]

Can I ask how you got that kind of transparency/opacity/blur on the drop down menus?

It would ALSO be nice to know how that user got it so that the TEXT of the menu items DOES NOT get transparent.

[steelcap]

Can I ask how you got that kind of transparency/opacity/blur on the drop down menus?

In compiz settings manager - settings as screenshots

[steelcap]

It would ALSO be nice to know how that user got it so that the TEXT of the menu items DOES NOT get transparent.

See screenshots above - using alpha blur only effects the background of translucent parts of windows - without using this feature text will also be affected by the opacity setting.

[Tipped OuT]

Please tell me what you think guys. I'm working very hard on this Mac OS X clone. Yes I know I'm missing a few things, like Global Menu.

[coldReactive]

See screenshots above - using alpha blur only effects the background of translucent parts of windows - without using this feature text will also be affected by the opacity setting.

Anyway to get it to also blur behind metacity alphas?

[Tipped OuT]

Anyway to get it to also blur behind metacity alphas?

Alpha Blur should blur anything that has a transparent background. Go in Compiz Fusion, go in the Blur plug-in section, and make sure the text box that has "Alpha Blur Windows" next to it, has "any" in it.

http://img213.imageshack.us/img213/5798/screenshotcompizconfigs.png

Also, keep in mind Metacity just lowers the opacity of the window, the lower the opacity, the less blur. So you may just not be noticing it.

[coldReactive]

Also, keep in mind Metacity just lowers the opacity of the window, the lower the opacity, the less blur. So you may just not be noticing it.

gwd under apps in gconf-editor can edit the titlebar opacity.

[Tipped OuT]

gwd under apps in gconf-editor can edit the titlebar opacity.

Yes, same rules apply.

Lowering the opacity of a window or part of a window also lowers the opacity of the blur for that said window.

[coldReactive]

Guess I'll just stick with emerald then.

Trying Opera 10 (Weekly Snapshots), it's turning out rather nicely. It feels better than Firefox and most of the Webkit browsers, except for Chromium. I really like it. It *is* quite a memory hog though - I thought it's meant to be lighter.., that's what everyone said.

Look how sexy it is ;) Opera default skin, using qt colours, which itself uses my gtk.

By actual desktop looks the same as last month.

It's amazing, I downloaded that wallpaper literally months ago, but I couldn't get it to fit with any of my themes. I had my simplistic, "8 bit" theme all done, and went looking for wallpaper then remembered I had this! It fit so perfectly, it was quite remarkable.

Nice. I keep wanting to go a white/grey, black and yellow theme myself but never get around to putting it together.

[Blu Fox]

Wow thanks!
Really it all came together nicely by chance. Already had the wallpaper up and took a random conky script from this one website on setting up conky for noobs. Didn't knew it would match so well.

Still trying to figure out how to put the neat stuff into conky like the weather, rss feed and stuff.

Been playing around with OpenBox for a little while and remembered why I love the *box variants.

Both the OpenBox and GTK are customized Elegant Brit, which I have tentatively called Elegant Mist. Need to work some more on my tint2 config since it doesn't quite blend in as well with this new wallpaper.

[Dobbie03]

OK my theme is DarkLooks which I installed from Synaptic, with the Enduro Black Smooth via Emerald.

Icons are the Nostromo set.

My wallpaper is the logo from Dismember which I found from some random metal site.

Don't get me wrong - I'm not against anyone who uses Windows ( just don't like the attitude from Microsoft ). Windows 7 looks pretty nice, however, I'll not even try to install it ( not worth my time and effort, not to mention, license key which is valid only for 1 year ).

It's amazing, I downloaded that wallpaper literally months ago, but I couldn't get it to fit with any of my themes. I had my simplistic, "8 bit" theme all done, and went looking for wallpaper then remembered I had this! It fit so perfectly, it was quite remarkable.
That is an amazing looking wallpaper... no shame in admitting that I also saved it for later use.

That looks very great.

Where'd you get that wallpaper, and does it come in widescreen?

Nope, no widescreen. Oh well.

[Tipped OuT]

Nope, no widescreen. Oh well.

That's not large enough for you? You can re size with it GIMP to your resolution. I doubt any quality will be lost, since the wallpaper is huge.

Teach me how to get an untouched AWN dock to look like that? Your mac theme was coming along nicely. The top taskbar could use some work though.

I'm sorry, but you can't. I'm using Cairo Dock. I've tried with AWN before, nearly impossible.

If you're thinking about giving Cairo Dock a try, then you can get my official OS X Leopard Dock theme here:

Oh thanks man, I thought it was AWN, I actually have kiba dock but I couldnt figure out how to set it up, it was such a cluster bomb and extremely weird, Ill give this a try thanks.

This theme has ONLY been tested with the non Open-GL version of Cairo Dock. Please do not complain of any bugs in the Open-GL version of Cairo Dock with this theme, because I can't fix them. My computer is unable to use Cairo Dock with Open-GL.

Thank you, and enjoy.

Please keep that in mind. ;)

Maybe I'm being an utter n00b here, I'm not sure what you mean by "untouched"- but that's a pretty simple dock design. It would not be difficult to replicate almost exactly in AWN. :)

I think the user meant that it has to be able to get it like that without installing any awn extras, configs, etc. through terminal.

Okay guys I'm finally done with my Mac OS X clone. Please tell me what you think and give me some suggestions on improvement, if needed. Thank you.

I made a new Emerald theme by taking the buttons from the Shiftie theme, recoloring them, and adding them to my current theme.

[ChadeFarseer]

Been playing around with OpenBox for a little while and remembered why I love the *box variants.

Both the OpenBox and GTK are customized Elegant Brit, which I have tentatively called Elegant Mist. Need to work some more on my tint2 config since it doesn't quite blend in as well with this new wallpaper.

Can I ask what app you have running next to rhythmbox in your systray?

I went to install awn on my #! install and it wanted to install a boat load of gnome dependencies that I do not want clogging my pipes. I'll have to boot into my mint install, so it will be later today...
