Nothing fancy. Just playing with Xubuntu 12.10. XfCE 4.10, Conky-lua, Blackbird style, Humanity Dark icons. My #! desktop will not change any time soon, so there is no point in posting that one:)

Your colors are the best, never killing each other, and perfect for day & night; bravo gutter~
Thanks for the kind words. Most of my colour-schemes are boring, but I'm glad you at least find them usable.

Yes, it's conky, piped to the spectrwm statusbar.

Form follows function, with websafe colours you rarely fail. (I just stole your palette.)
I can only envy your aesthetic eye.

At first sight I thought it's an Elder V., save lack of transparency and Fluxbox menu.

Wall and panel remind me of some Windows 7 RC layout back in 2009. Not bad.

It's cmatrix. Just "sudo apt-get install cmatrix" and run it. Number keys dictate speed, shift+numbers switch values (based on your term colours). Read the man page for more.

Rooster's colours are awesome!! He dares to go where no rooster has gone before.
I could post more schemes in the Xdefs thread if you like.

I 'm checking the options and the keystrokes. Nice little "game".
Thank you VERY much.

@Internal Affairs: the picture shows the stairs of the emergency exit in a subway station. Its mirrored in the middle, so it's looking a little bit more abstract.
Herre is my original image and here you can see a little bit more of the architecture (not taken by me).

Thanks e'rbody.
@ninjaaron; what is that matrix script? (i absolutely need that)
It's just a simple "for loop," but You need cmatrix, as gutterslob already said. My script works with urxvt. You may need to modify it to use your terminal. Also. It's a bit buggy. For reasons I do not understand, terminal windows containing an instance of cmatrix sometimes close when the others have opened. This may have to do with urxvt (xterm works better), but I don't know what the problem is, or how to fix it (only that it is worse if you use urxvtc).
It's also pretty cpu intensive, since it creates eight terminal windows running cmatrix (which is cpu intensive to begin with).
anyway:
#!/bin/sh
# initial sleep gives the user time to get into another frame/workspace.
sleep 1
for i in black red magenta blue cyan green yellow white
do
urxvt -e sh -c "cmatrix -b -u 9 -C $i" &
sleep .3
done
exitLast edited by ninjaaron (2012-11-22 17:35:41)

...absolutely addicted to customizing the desktop...I need help...Hey friend- what are you using for desktop icons in OB? I've read a few threads about it, but haven't made the effort yet.
It's actually just conky

Nice.
I realized it must be some sort of script after I messed around with the options with no similar results. But I'm not a coder, so I had to find another solution. So here it is:
One instance of full screen terminator and multiple vertical splits with zero margin.
ninjaaron and gutterslob: thank you both.

looks good. You're basically just using terminator to do what I'm doing with my window manager. You could probably modify the script to work with terminator, but I've never given it a serious shake, so I don't know what would be involved.
On a peripherally related note, I wasn't a coder either until I need a bash script for something. I still don't know anything but bash (except for "hello world" in C and python) and a bit of html. I can't recommend highly enough to begin learning bash. It is immediately rewarding because you can instantly begin leverage any command line tool you already know, so even if you only learn a couple of bash builtins, you can do so much with them right away.

got a little fvwm/gentoo rig going during thanksgiving, been pretty fun. thanx for the rec on the Flatstudio yall.
Nice one rooster; how did that Gentoo install go? I was debating an install of Lunar but never went through with it. For that much effort, I'll re-install Free/Net BSD instead.
