Re: December 2008 Screenshots

Rydgel, I looked up the other thread and found your config but it doesn't seem to be quite the same of your recently posted shot and additionally the site you said you got the wallpaper from is kind of impossible to navigate. Could you please post your current config and direct link to the wallpaper?

Re: December 2008 Screenshots

I've just discovered the joys of
1) tint2,
2) Arch's openbox-themes package (and, by extension, the AMAZING Simple-Red OB theme), and
3) actual, real GTK themes (I don't think you can see in the screenshot, but it matches my OB theme)

So here's my the desktop of my brand-new Arch install, all decked out for Chrismtas.

Behold:

@Ashren
How did you get dzen2 with xft? I installed it modifying the dzen2-svn PKGBUILD in AUR, but when I start it, it shows nothing...

Hmm, I just realized I could get rid of the titlebars by making all windows undecorated.
Lookie! Attack of the clones!

PekWM

Openbox

The only thing that won't look right the same is that maximized windows in Openbox lose their border. I don't think there's a way around that one.

Re: December 2008 Screenshots

You are sort of defeating its purpose there with no titlebars, what i like about pekwm over ob is tabed windows and active screen edges.

Heres my wmii. Pretty basic but very functional and mouse friendly.

Just moved back to Gnome from about a month on XFCE4 (svn version). There's just nothing that suits me like Gnome!

Can you (re)post the wallpaper (again) please?

i'm sure there's a pekwm user somewhere lamenting the fact he/she/it can't get rid of those damned borders on maximized windows, like in openbox.

I switched from kdemod4 to kdemod3(.5) aka kdemod-legacy, because 4 was just too buggy for me.
