November 2008 Screenshots

Posting Guidelines

· DO NOT post full resolution screenshots!  You can use the "mogrify" command (pacman -S imagemagick) to make a thumbnail of your screenshot:

$ cp screenie.png thumb-screenie.png
$ mogrify -resize 20% thumb-screenie.png

Twenty percent of the original size is great for 1024x768 screenies.  You can then upload these images to your server and use the following code to show them on the forum:

[url=http://my.site.com/screenie.png][url]http://my.site.com/thumb-screenie.png[/url][/url]

This displays the thumbnail as a link to the screenie like this:

· Several websites also offer free image hosting, of these ImageShack is very popular and does a neat auto thumbnail:

Use the "Thumbnail for forums" link code that is supplied by ImageShack to post your thumbnail link.

· Once the new month begins please do not post new screenies in the old threads.

· If the screenshot has questionable material that might not be safe to view while at work or in a school setting, please post only a link and not a thumbnail, along with a mention of "Not Safe for Work". Posts that do not adhere to this are subject to deletion without notice at any time.

· Please try to include any links to your wallpaper or configs that you may have and/or the names of your icon theme, running apps, DE, etc. in the same post to reduce unnecessary clutter later.

Nice one Gigamo!

You dropped the layout pictures?
The ones you used before, where did they come from? I'm looking for some nice minimalistic layout pictures...

Playing with Awesome3-git.

All credit goes to Gigamo for the wonderful config! (btw, big thanks for that, Gigamo)
I still need to tweak it a little bit to fit my needs/wants. But I like it so far.

Re: November 2008 Screenshots

This one is just a slight modification from my last desktop of October. The Conky is now 2 separate Conky configs, and the Tint has been modified. As always, don't be afraid to ask about any aspect of my desktop, I'll answer the best I can.

Distro:          Arch Linux (x86_64)
Kernel:          2.6.27-ARCH
WM:              Openbox
WM Theme:        Fawn
GTK:             Fawn
Wall:            Mystic Sunset
                 interfacelift.com
Apps:            Tint2, Conky
                 Pidgin, urxvt, a test RubyGTK app I made

Yunus, I just saw that the other day while I was finding brown wallpapers on InterfaceLIFT. Let me see if I can find it for you...

Aha! It's called The Spectrum Of The Sky.

Stumpwm + Emacs + Conkeror

I have different sized monitors, that's why there's a black strip.

- Wiboxes
- Menu (can be used however you like, for example when you rightclick empty desktop, or click a widget)
- Built-in pseudo-transparency on wiboxes
- Space Invaders
- Naughty (notification system)
- More..
