Be Proud Of your Ubuntu

[Rockinrandel]

Ubuntu 12.4 running Gnome and Cairo dock Open GL
I'm Proud of my Ubuntu... This is my desktop I Really think this would be Great if Ubuntu Had a version something like this that came like this with Cairo Dock and these Icons some of the icons I changes around in such a way I thought would make a long time windows users who would like to switch over Happy and less confused.. I tried a bunch of different Linux versions and set ups If you will all claiming they would be great for a long time windows user and personally I think they all sucked!! I’m a Very long time windows User Since 1995 who happen to Try Ubuntu 12.4 at a friends and I liked the programs but didn't like the desktop.. So through my rambling around with this OS for the past three months This is what I came up with that I feel would make a long time windows user happy.. The first Icon opens Applications Menu Kinda Like clicking start on windows XP the second opens Home and shows places like documents downloads etc.. The third is a launcher I made inside is a folder with different quick launch icons to different important programs places or application I think are important On My OS.. You could put some if not all of these on the dock but I like this idea of stacking them to save space and having the first three icons do something similar to windows .. Remember not everyone knows where everything is on Ubuntu or how to use it out of the gate and having a gigantic side Dock like unity has with the search thing is confusing and ugly so this is a nice place to put shortcuts to find things again for the beginner.

You can Put any Icon on Cairo Dock by right clicking the Icon and going to edit. The Icon your talking about I pretty sure I made that with Photo Shop on my other Box stuck it on my flash drive and then on here. To be honest I make a lot of em on windows and then bring um to my Ubuntu. When I look on Google for Ubuntu Icons there isn't a lot to choose from I think I but a background image on that black button by shrinking it down and pasting it over to the button in Photo shop. I'd like to make a bunch more and maybe post em online some place for people to use...
