You two guys are driving me crazy ... I am busy with other stuff and I feel like I am light years behind now...

Way to go mrpeachy!!!

mrpeachy · 2012-03-19 04:29:01

thanks sector11

what can i say, falldown in a bad influence

ill give you a day or so to catch up, going to be busy with my own "other stuff" for a bit

ive been looking around for some fantasy themes icons but they arent many out there...
need something to use when falldown gets his tolkein themed artwork together

mrpeachy · 2012-03-19 04:35:14

im also thinking that the scroll/turn buttons should only be seen after the main button has been pressed

like this

How about Tolkien icons - LOTR - Armoury of the Third Age

Need some LOTR fonts?

those are very nice, but i'm not sure how usable they are
my other thought was some metalic looking icons (but most of those are too shiny), or a stone look perhaps

Well, I tried. If I come across anything, I'll point them out.

Peachy I have a timer set up for the scroll buttons.. or at least I do on mine

mrpeachy · 2012-03-19 19:52:44

heres some more additions
currently, with the icon size seen in the conky so far you can fit 12 (at 30 degree intervals) around one circle
so i added some inner buttons which let you select different lists

you can sort out your programs into the 3 lists and switch between them

http://youtu.be/KclSbPlGkIE

im using repeating icons so you see the same icons in the different lists

HaHa!! Thats cool!! I have such a small amount of actual programs that I use that I may not need the additional 2 rows, but still cool!!

Peachy can I have a copy of your tolkien wallpaper? I have a rough template of your theme that I want to match up

I need to darken the stone a little, but I'm glad you like it.. I'm adding a little green leaves and such.

The text is Tengwar Elfica and says peachys launcher.. well actually it says peachys launcherp just cause I needed to fill a space and the p looks really cool

falldown · 2012-03-19 21:27:18

darker contrast with added greenery and brighter glow.

Here is the template Peachy
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/60081679/peachyslauncher.tar.gz

I had to adjust conkyrc to

minimum_size 520 250

and image size

w=518,h=230

I'm trying to think of a nice on/off button and rotate buttons for this.
