This is the only I've changed: http://photo.klette.us/i/177/b105d-screenie21.png
Thanks a lot. The Bitstream Vera looks better, but what's that Font called "Anonymous" you have for "fixed width"? Where did you get it from? Is it a package?
And did you set your DPI in xorg.conf? When I compare my screen with your screenshot, it seems as if my fonts were smaller / more compressed in width.
Thanks to toad as well. I have most of these font packages installed. The very good beginners guide is recommending them anyway. *thumbsupfortheguide*

@adamruss: I love your cube/cylinder background image. Is it downloadable somewhere?

Here's mine, nothing too fancy:
I don't use omploader anymore. They've in the past have changed images printing things like, "I am gay" to some people photos. Drat!

Here's my laptop's kde4 desktop. I have a relatively normal layout for my home computer, but for the laptop I went minimalistic. Did away with the panel completely. Also, got the video screen in there for how I watch DVD's at work.

Welcome Captain!
I'd be interested what you did to get that status bar underneath your taskbar! Care to share the secret

Just a simple conky. Not much of a secret
If you like I could post it here.

Cool! Yes, despite the fact that my mobo just conked out on me I certainly wouldn't mind a gentle introduction to conky (which appears to be somewhat of a holy grail to the common archer but has as yet eluded my simple soul).

There you go!
pacman -S conky and save this code as .conkyrc in your home dir and run conky.

edit: of course u'll have to set your cpus, partitions and wlan -if you use wlan- accordingly to your pc's setup. just erase/edit some lines and mess around with
killall conky i.e. conky

KDE 4. Work in progress. I need to add some conky.
There's a nice plasmoid called 'hide the stupid cashew' or something like that, in one of the kdemod packages, if you want to get rid of the widget in the top right

I don't much care for KDE or KDEmod, but I agree that there should be more than one screenshot thread. (And maybe a new one for xmonad )

kdemod, ikon_2 icons, rechy2k004 (something like that). the wallpaper was made from a much smaller image.
hey i ran across a wall that reminded me of you so saved it for you.. maybe you can use it

Ah, so we're talking about bleeding edge desktop....

Ah, so we're talking about bleeding edge desktop....
which plasma theme are you using? U'r systray is very nice integrated in panel....
Offline
It's Glaze. However, be aware that I'm on 4.3, might behave slightly different on 4.2.x.
(In theory, that smooth systray is a bug, due to theme not being updated for 4.3. .... yes, there are good bugs )
