Two things:
1. desert detector: ... match!
2. you might wann use a term that supports utf-8 and set your locale to it, or is it centericq that can't handle that?
-neri

I'm using urxvt - rxvt-unicode, so it's probably centericq that can't handle utf8

no just did it by hand
potrace always gives you to much detail or not enough
that there is about 20 mins work, if i finsh it its go to take about 8-10 hours but i normally give up 3-4 hours in because i can't be arsed

iphitus · 2005-08-07 12:58:02

And potrace gives you output that's really hard to work with.

neri: your desert detector missed mine

hmpf, I think to detect all the deserts around Archlinux would be a fulltime
job

the potrace thing: A matter of workflow.
If I'd like to do such a thing with the picture, I'd gimp it first:
normalizing levels, noise reduction, reducing colors and all this kind of things
untill I come up with a 5 colors picture maybe.
The fire up InkScape and figure ut the magic of Shift+A+B -> a potrace gui
her you can use the multiple colors mode and set it to like 10 scans.
This gives you a grouped object, degroup it and throw a way what you don't
need. I think it would be faster and easier.

Wow
I like how you used those dockapps together with the icons and the pager...I think I'm gonna steal that idea

phrakture · 2005-08-10 19:54:25

man, I don't know what it is, but WM style dockapps always look real fugly to me

Glad you like it These dockapps are in extra/AUR. I must point out that wmpower uses 4-6% of CPU at all time. There are a lot of these dock apps out there (extra, AUR, http://dockapps.org/ ) . I chose these ones because I liked them and they work well with FVWM.

In the case where you don't like dock apps, the trick is to hide them with a nice emacs window like in my busy screenshot.

No, it's not that - I mean dock apps themselves are cool... and *could* have potential, but they always look bad - like they're all made with Motif and GTK1 widgets....

SleepyDog · 2005-08-10 22:56:26

Are you kidding? Motif *is* sexy!

This was supposed to just be conky screenie but I discovered the graphite wallpaper and the shinji theme looked pretty good together

/me goes to dibble's website to download cool fluxbox style!

I always thought the super-wide desktops were great. I need another monitor.

The MyBox flux theme also looks very good with the shinji wallpaper. Sort of OT but here's a screenie of mine with that combo.
clicky

dtw · 2005-08-11 11:04:54

Nice
