My openbox as configured yesterday:
- Royalty openbox and gtk theme
- Cairo Dock
- Stalonetray
- Conky with this config http://pastebin.com/VPxpEvmV
- Pacifica-U icon theme
- menu.xml http://pastebin.com/xKHcFHdK
simple menu with scripts mostly (fast ssh/rdp connection triggers, cleaning scripts). apps are in cairo menu.
- rc.xml http://pastebin.com/jt9Z1KTr
only customizations are W+left/W+right for windows snap, alt+F2 for gmrun and media keys for volume.
- autostart http://pastebin.com/jbvPETkU
nothing for desktop icons, who needs them anyway. I've used fluxbox on slow machines till now, but I'm amazed with openbox, it seems rather "civilized", compared to fluxbox.

I like the way you configure openbox (even though there are xmls...). I still appreciate fluxbox as I used it very often in the past.
by "civilized" i meant eg the default themes of fluxbox - only one or two are usable, the rest are from some really sick dream or weird drugs visions. In openbox almost all default themes are usable and nice. obmenu app, given by default is really nice tool. obkey - very nice. obconf - i really appreciate. i think i spent much more time "writing" fluxbox than I spent creating environment above.
basically, i installed fluxbox, got issues (ofk having xcompmgr), windows positions, wallpaper setup, even theming wouldn't work as it should for some reason... cairo dock's "reserve space" option didn't work, whole dock was dancing when moving windows... these are not the issues that couldn't be resolved, but then I though "i don't have time to google this, let's try openbox" and it took me one hour to make fully usable and nice environment, no issues at all, all works nicely!
i don't really want to go into full analysis of why I though that openbox seems more civilized than fluxbox, it's just personal opinion basing on one personal evening of configuration

Productivity rules! Exactly my experiences. Openbox simply let's me do what I need to do in front of my computer without having to spend extra time with sudden unforeseen changes to the window management environment.

...without sudden unforeseen changes to the window management environment.
+1
Other environments can be made to do what Openbox does, but Openbox does 1 thing better than everything else- its form stays the same.
I will say to an extent this also applies to the EWMH/ICCCM standards support; tools that you "bolt on" to Openbox work because it maintains standards compliance. Openbox is the only floater that pytyle2 works perfect on for me, Opensnap, no panel issues, etc etc..

I like both the design of OS X Yosemite and Google Now, so the only logical conclusion was to mix the two
applications: conky, tint2, plank, compton
gtk theme: modified numix
icon theme: slightly modified flattr
conky theme: modified version of this
wallpapers: rocky mountains (I made a script which changes them according to daytime and weather, but it depends on the google now conky)...
If you want anything I'll be happy to share
Mind sharing the icon theme?

Sorry for answering so late (in my defense, I had three weeks of military service )
@radc: Whoa all of them?
Here you go (I changed the names a bit)
ArchNumixDark: Numix with Arch blue and dark-grey
ArchNumixLight: like ArchNumixDark but with light titlebar
ArchNumixChromium: like ArchNumixDark but adapted to fit the style of chromium
ArchNumixWeb: uses exactly the same colours as the Arch website
ArchNumixWebChromium: like ArchNumixWeb but adapted to fit the style of chromium
ArchNumixOSXLight: adapted to look like OSX Yosemite (the one used in the screenshots)
ArchNumixOSXDark: like ArchNumixOSXLight but with dark titlebar
ArchNumixWhite: looks a bit like Windows but has dark menus
Some of them wont really work with GTK3, I just changed some things to make Transmission and Evince look more or less like the GTK2 applications.

I changed the name of the folder from the original config, so you need to rename it to .conky-google-now_light
@orschiro: Wow thanks
Well the only possibility would be an AUR package, but I guess I you should be able to recreate it now
And the wallpaper changing script?

Don't mind Darth Vader, he's just sad because he noticed I watch Star Wars Rebels.
Info:
The upcoming tv shows are pulled from a Sonarr instance. The upcoming movies section isn't done yet but the source will be CouchPotato. The usenet and torrent rings don't represent the value inside them but instead show local up/down speeds. I have yet to figure out how to link them to the remote download client's speeds which are nzbget and transmission.
Update: CouchPotato upcoming movies section is working.
Edit: Sorry for the non-thumb image. Fixed it.

Hi. No major modifications done to the themes, just some tweaks here and there. I basically downloaded the Numix theme from the below links and just went for a softer red color + a slightly different base grey color. If you want i can look for some place to upload my changed files.
Actually i'm trying to redo it a little now as im making a version with a vertical menu bar on the left side (tend to struggle more with vertical screenspace on my little laptop than horizontal), i'll post some new ones once that is done.

@torhaala: thanks, I'll check those out. I'm actually using a modified Numix theme, an I'm guessing those are the "stock" theme links? I was curious about your custom version, but could possibly give a whirl at customizing myself, too!
