I've been trying to give conky a nice background so it is visible with any style of wallpaper..

Something strange is going on with my conky weather script. That left parenthesis after the pressure is supposed to say rising, falling or steady.. I'm re-writing it in python so hopefully that will fix it. I'm such a weather geek.

I really love Openbox. I don't care about bloat and have absolutely nothing against the bigger DE's, but I've been hooked since I tried it.

Here I am with Openbox again

I tweaked QTcurve a bit to fit window's titlebar nicely.

trying out cairo dock in openbox so I'm in the middle of some themeing. Tint2 has gone and I'm playing with cairo dock and themes...

(dock only shows when mouse near by)

things are clean and empty by default..

not much changed for me, I have made some icons but for now I'd like to promote a script I've made ... auto openbox theme creator.

check out this guy for cool 3D walls like the top one.

the other I made in gimp from one wall and a texture, I'd have to make it again in a better resolution before sharing.

Outis · 2010-08-19 12:28:47

Somewhat larger fonts because I hate sitting right up to my monitor ....

I have admitted defeat. After trying a few docks, launchers, panels, many many themes, icons and so on - I have to say I can do no more to Openbox than I have or I want...

So here is my finished article... Aside from the occasional change of wallpaper or gtk theme, this is it.

busyish:
-- mod edit: post thumbnails: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/For … s_and_Code --

Mod edit really necessary? It was a thumbnail, all be it slightly larger than your average. Check imgur...

here it is again but in the very small size..

clean:

I'm now going to Linux Mint Gnome to play with serious Compiz eycandy - but my default boot, is and always will be Arch + Openbox <3
