Hey, that's my theme! What did you modify, if I may ask?
Yes it is. One of my favorites. 
Some minor modifications to colors: fonts or window active title background in openbox etc.
xfce with openbox on my thinkpad these days:
Wallie

@fog: you win the thread.
Thank you very much dear ninja.
@sevensage Thank you.
@brontosaurusrex Thank you, you are very kind 
It's been some time since my last shot.
Nothing special, no time these days. So...
Xubuntu 13.04 with openbox and dzen2-based conky.
Details:
diehard4 gtk theme
openbox theme
nitrux buttons icons
play app fonts
snap/artwiz conky fonts.
solarized colors

wow.. very beautiful!
how did u manage to get the margin between the menu parts? or is it a "background-colored" border?
Thank you.
It's openbox's menu. It shows up wherever place i right click on the desktop.
You can edit the themerc file (yourtheme/openbox-3/themerc) to get that result.
Find the variable "menu.overlap.x" and change its value.
"x" specifies how sub menus should overlap their parents.
A positive value moves the submenu over top of their parent by that amount.
A negative value moves the submenu away from their parent by that amount. eg. -6 gives screenshot's result.
but with a positive x the result is like this:
I come to this thread now mainly to see yours and Fog's scrots. There are other excellent scrots but those give me the most pleasure.
@intoCB: Thank you. You are very kind.
Thinkpad's desktop:
Some terminal apps with the conky part of the terminator's window, in the place of the title:
Some apps and openbox 's custom menu:
@neuton: thank you. Your shot is very original.
@chameleon: I have overheating issues with my laptop. Some distros are too hot, some others ok, some kernels hot, some cool with the same distro and settings, so i am trying to find a way. I'm trying newer kernels with "cool" configs, vanilla kernels etc.
The one in elitist is vanilla sources with siductions config plus minor changes for my processor. Not very happy from the -cooling- result.
But in my mint installation with the old config -a few changes only- the 3.8.0-rc3 kernel is about 10°C cooler. And this is cool 
The experiment continues.
@lwfitz: thank you very much. Already in my disk.
I found this flat theme. Just a random shot:
@gutterslob: your colors are always music for the eyes
@gurtid: smooth, soft and dreamy
@lwfitz: must try this conky soon
@mos_: nice, if you like desktop modifications, openbox is the best start.
@gensym: clean and pleasant, like it
Fresh LinuxBBQ "Elitist" 64bit, default look, custom kernel:

I didn't. Pure monolithic kernels are a PITA, which is why even most embedded systems use modules.
I discovered this. 
I was curious about the speed and the size of a monolithic kernel -i like my linux cool, fast and small, with this order usually- but this was not the only reason, not even the main one.
It was 2004 or 05, kernel 2.6 was out but not so many people in linux world, not so many forums with solutions, but the most important, not fast internet, at least for me. And i wanted badly to see the "new" kernel. 2.6. All the distros are with 2.4. All my configs are useless and I couldn't find a way to load proper the modules, so i tried the monolithic kernel.
It was a small victory to see a 2.6 "up and running" but a useless victory. At least was an interesting experience.
Thank you for the infos.
fog wrote:I had build a monolithic kernel. A piece of art.
Do you mean you built a kernel without loadable modules, with everything built in? Or do you mean you just built a kernel yourself. Linux is a monolithic kernel in any capacity, although the module loading makes it a de-facto hybrid kernel.
I was build a kernel without loadable modules (monolithic), but not everything build in -tooooo big if i was do it- only what -i thought- my system needs. But you missed a -minor
- detail, although my system starts:
Small, fast ...oh and half things on my pc didn't work.
I build sometimes (even know i'm using my fresh build 3.8.0-rc3-fog kernel) my kernels but they are normal kernels with loadable modules.

I have my panel in autohide and i was looking for a way to have my current keyboard layout set to conky.
I didn't find a "layout" variable -maybe someone will soon write the code for this- so i tried to find another solution.
I'm not a coder, only minor modifications, so i don't know if this is right or if this is the best way to do this.
I'm changing between us and gr layouts and i noticed that when i run this:xset -q | grep -A 0 'LED' | cut -c63and my keyboard is set to default layout (us) the result is 0, when is on the greek layout the result is 1.
So i end up with this code witch works for me:${if_match ${execi 2 xset -q | grep -A 0 'LED' | cut -c63}==0}us ${else}grMaybe someone will find this useful or maybe someone knows a better way how to do it.
Thank you.
Not a better way just a more complete way. Start your conky in a terminal and see if you get an error.
For every ${if_something} you need an ${endif}
${if_match ${execi 2 xset -q | grep -A 0 'LED' | cut -c63}==0}us ${else}gr${endif}Excellent idea for people that don't have a panel!
Thank you very much Sector11 
At my conky (a dzen-based conky) the layout part is like this, with ${endif} at the end -highlighted line in the second scrot - so there isn't errors:
^i(/home/fog/.conky/dzicons/info_02.xbm) ^fg(\#B9783E)${if_match ${execi 2 xset -q | grep -A 0 'LED' | cut -c63} == 0}us^fg()${else}gr^fg()${endif} Thank you again 
@fog too bad the mach kernel will never have proper hardware support in our lifetimes, I was really looking forward to emacsos
A few years ago i was searching these things. Microkernels, mach, hurd, monolithic kernels.
I had build a monolithic kernel. A piece of art. Small, fast ...oh and half things on my pc didn't work.
But i was so happy. 
Of course a few hours later i went back to my bloatkernel.

whoah!!! that desktop is cool!! How did you get all those crazy terminal?! and what kind of music player is that
. that's so amazing!
Thank you 
It isn't something special. Some show off fancy tricks but I'm gland you like it 
You can find many colorscheme scripts here: ANSI colorschemes scripts
You can take your distro logo with some system infos with screenfetch
And you can use moc for music player.
sudo apt-get install mocMore here: Little MOC how-to
My scrot for today, all the same except the new wallie and my fresh rc3 kernel:

Yes is right, lacks a decent editor for females
Then told that to them: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Editor_war 
This is an old joke from the "editors war" era -between men- not a personal opinion.
I like emacs, especially his psychiatrist. I used him the old times, like every female . 
@ivo: Emacs is a nice OS but it lacks an decent editor. 
@blitzchriz: nice, i used to have a conky like this in my archbox
@brontosaurusrex: nice and mac style -left- buttons hm?
@Dobbie03: Your wallies are always special
@lwfitz: impressive, as usual
@chameleon: Looking forward to 64bit release too at the end of this month.
Oh and i like your wallie. Looks better in your shot 
A simple mate/openbox shot with a dzen-based conky and a 3.8.0rc2 kernel:
BTW are both your status bars tint?
Thank you.
The top panel is tint but the bottom panel is a dzen2 based conky.

You've outdone yourself. I take it you like Bauhaus? Your setup inspired me to cook up a term colour scheme around the Aiko foreground and background. I don't have monofur installed, but think it should work well with that font. Try it if you want.
I am honored. Thank you very much
Your AikoFog is awesome and already on my desktop.
You will make me stop ...theme hoping 
Thank you again.
@gutterslob: Thank you very much sir for the tips, all these beautiful themes and the special colorschemes.
@OK100: Very artistic.
@ivanovnegro: Your wallie is rocking... again.
@brontosaurusrex: Once I gave an answer in a forum -something about a "keybinding" problem- and the other person replied to me like this: "Great dude, real men don't ckick".
The next day I bought batteries for my mouse. 
Same settings, other distro, new wallie:
