Who's Awesome? You're Awesome.
Don't thank me, all I did was scour the web and find it; however after looking at it closely I can see where someone (besides me) messed with it in GIMP (or Photoshop). The imperfections kinda ruined it for me once I saw them.
The one below seems virtually untouched and a sports a different color scheme...
Does anyone know "what" or "who" this is a picture of? The first one to correctly name it gets the imaginary grand prize of 100 Conky points. I know now; and I am rather surprised that I like it anyway.
I'm back on Ubuntu (14.04 and still beta at the moment), and it's killing Mint in performance on my machine. I get ~2 more hours of battery life, and temps run about 5 to 10°C lower.
I'll post my new Conky, once it's "completed" again. Now running into new Conky background issues that I didn't have in Ubuntu 12.04; if it ain't one thing, its another

Point taken...
I didn't figure it would take too long before someone got it.
Congratulations!!!

Went back to my usual Ubuntu background...
I'm only able to use "override" window type in Ubuntu 14.04, so I have to have to set own_window_colour to black to reasonably match my background.
"Normal" window type displays Conky over any open application which is annoyingly unusable. "Desktop" window type disappears anytime I click on the desktop. So any suggestions how I might get a transparent background now?
My configuration settings are currently set as...
Yes, I know most of the own_window settings are disregarded with "override" option.Code:#conky performance settings update_interval 1 total_run_times 0 cpu_avg_samples 4 no_buffers yes double_buffer yes override_utf8_locale yes text_buffer_size 4352 #overall position of conky window alignment mr gap_x 32 gap_y 0 minimum_size 185 200 maximum_width 185 #overall appearance of window own_window yes own_window_type override own_window_transparent yes own_window_hints undecorated,above,sticky,skip_taskbar,skip_pager draw_borders no own_window_colour black own_window_argb_visual yes own_window_argb_value 150 stippled_borders 0 #default text apperance use_xft yes xftalpha 1 xftfont Alfios:size=12 default_color E5E5E5 #E2D6C8 #FFFFFF draw_shades 1 draw_outline no default_shade_color black default_outline_color black uppercase no #border around graphs draw_graph_borders no #colors color1 67ECFD #main headings color2 FDAC5D #arrow down color3 FDAC5D #arrow up color5 4EA8CB #subheadings color9 217261 #dot color0 BCEBFF #6FC73C #bars TEXT

Hi Petro Dawg,
Looking at your config in own_window_hints you have "above" set.
own_window_type normal uses these hints while
own_window_type override ignores these hints.
should work fine to set a degree of transparency.Code:own_window_type normal own_window_hints undecorated,below,sticky,skip_taskbar,skip_pager own_window_transparent no own_window_argb_visual yes own_window_argb_value 150
When own_window_transparent is set to yes the window is always fully transparent no matter the own_window_argb_value.
