March 2007 Desktops - Posting Guidelines

* Stay within the board rules, no matter how hot you may believe the wallpaper/screenshot to be.

* If you are going to quote, there isn't a need to quote an img-embeded picture - Just don't do it. Please just reference the post by page number/page link/etc.

* Off Topic Posts will be edited or removed.

* The desktops thread is not to be used as a means to post explicit or suggestive images (they must be safe for your kids and/or boss to see). Please help to keep the thread relevant and safe to browse for everyone.

* The moderators of this forum reserve the right to edit or remove your posts as necessary so they may comply with our Community Ruleset.

* Please use reduced-size thumbnails, where possible, out of respect for people running on lower bandwidth or screen resolutions.

* In the interests of keeping the thread on topic it is strongly urged that you format your posts in the following order:

Themes: Name/where you got it (with link would be nice).

Wallpaper: Name/where you got it (with link would be nice).

Icons: Name/where you got it (with link would be nice).

Programs: Name/where you got it (with link would be nice).

Important Note: Any image posted that is over 800 x 600 will be removed! Use a thumbnail or use a text link to your image. If your image is removed, this is why.

Mwuhahhaha first ....

This is all on a laptop, so I needed it to be good looking and fast at the same time. For some reason KDE runs faster and more efficient than Gnome. Fortunately I prefer KDE.

Themes: Kubuntu Edgy; Konqueror with Crystal window decorations and Vista style buttons.
Wallpaper: I can't remember where I got the background. A lot of people were asking for it here in the forums and someone provided a link.
Icons: Crystal SVG / Crystal Clear Hybrid
Programs:
....................XMMS with Ater rounded edges theme. Ater theme on Gnome-Look
....................Stendhal is a really cool open-source MORPG that is in the works. Stendhal on Sourceforge
....................SwiftFox browser since the repository one crashed with Flash. You can see GMail Manager in the bottom right portion of the browser.
....................KNetworkManager running in the system tray. *buntu is the only distro that I have found to work flawlessly with my wireless card, and without ndiswrapper.
Important Note: Images resized to 800 x 600. Original screenshots 1400 x 1050 resolution.

GTK2: Candido-Graphite-Slate
Metacity(heliodor): Candido-Graphite-Slate (w/ modified L&R window edges)
Icons: Snowish
Wallpaper by: j3concepts
Dock: avant-window-navigator (svn from trevino's repository)

Also for my legal wellbeing I'd like to say that the Heroes 'video' there is gimp'd in from an Internet picture (the particular frame qualifies for "fair use").
I freakin' love this show.
