Sort of a mega-respond post. I think I got everyone.
codemac: Nice stuff, I especially like the script to resize the background.
Yah, after I cleaned it up so it wasn't making 10 system calls, it now seems pretty quick. My first version of that script would make the CPU peg out at 100% for about 20 seconds. Very annoying when watching a movie. Now that I'm using the imagemagick perl interface instead, All I notice now is a small spike on my cpu load graph for maybe half a second. I'm proud.
The new version can be found here. I even documented it.
rab: besides smoon, your one of the only archers that _likes_ perl.
Maybe smoon and I are on to something?
satanix: Nice job one of the best custom fbox themes i have seen
Thanks. I use openbox, but fluxbox is nice too. I never could get used to Flux's bar/dock thing. (Yah, you can disable it, I know).
Openbox seems to hit the spot though. It's incredibly tweakable. It's a piece of cake to make it do fun things with it.
harlekin: Looks really nice. Can anyone tell me how I can display the processes like that? Saw it plenty of times yet.
Conky is what I use. It's great stuff. You can install it from pacman.
harlekin: And last but not least: How is the package called containing ssinfo?
fk: What is this for a Panel
I use pypanel. It's a pretty simple setup. I just set the fonts, set a backgroud color of 0x003f63 to match the blue on my wallpaper, and disabled borders.
slackhack: can you kill apps from that processes menu? would it work in xfce4, or is it only for *boxes?
Yeah, I can kill processes with that menu. I usually kill processes with xkill though. I bind the Pause/Break key to launch xkill, and when firefox freezes, i smack that button - click on firefox, and WHAMO! Gone!
The script I use has been ported from a few *box windowmanagers in it's time. Maybe you can figure out a way to do it in fvwm?
phrakture: a) holy hell you have the most complicated setup I've seen in a long time.... reminds me of a sysadmin I used to work with
Complicated? My e16 configs were a nighmare and far worse I think. An old screenshot of that desktop is still online
I eventually got tired of fidding with e16's config files and moved onto simplier things.
phrakture: b) is that xclock? where's your config for it, it looks rad
It's called yesClock. Despite being a java application, It's kinda neat. It shows exactly when sunrise and sunset are on a 24 hour clock. You can tweak the colors by right clicking on the running app. If you do run it - it lookes better without borders. Try a startup like java -jar ~/java/yesClock_1.3.6.jar --noframe
stonecrest: Is it just me, or are people posting larger and larger thumbnails?
Maybe it's bigger because more of us are running at higher resolutions? In the thread intro it said 20%. Thats a thumbnail of 320x240 for a 1600x1200 resolution. I dont exactly use 20%, but the I posted was 312x237. Maybe the intro should be changed to specify a max thumbnail widthxheight?
Yes, I'm being a smartass
benplaut: Yo, xterminus... i want your conkyrc 0_0 (just the TEXT)

This screenshot doesn't really show everything... maybe I'll make some more later.
The goodies: DerertRed Color scheme (with tweaks) QTCurve dull glass theme for QT and GTK, AIGLX and Beryl (runs nice on this 4 year old mid-line then laptop), custom icons, some customized fonts etc.
I've got emerald and beryl configured for some customized eye candy as well... maybe I'll make a quick video later too

There are better things to show on a busy screen than your torrents...
Well, I was checkin progress and it really doesn't matter as I live in Sweden. We got saner copyright laws here.

Hey icrave, where can I get that Carnival-Black Openbox theme? :shock:

i really like that shot. i'm not a gamer -- is that background from a game? the atmosphere is great.
as much as i like and use rox, it's too bad it can't be integrated better with transparency.
Thanks guys. Wallpaper is from deviantART.

I have started to play with Conky, after seeing it in some screenshots here. I have to admit it more impressed with it than I thought it would be, even though I am just using it for Mpd monitoring (for now).
