It's funny, I would love to skin Vista, but I can't due to a lack of good themes (hopefully the tango patcher will be ready soon ). In Ubuntu (where I basically could change everything), however, I'm completely satisfied with how things look like and haven't really changed it for about 3 or 4 months now... oh well...

Still modded rezlooks emerald theme with the old silver Tango icons:

yay! i'll gladly take the blame say.. do you know if wmii is still under development? i haven't seen anything about it for a while on their homepage.

The latest snap of Wmii was on January 20th 2008, it just doesn't seem to have any major releases.
I'm just switching between Wmii and Dwm, and Wmii just has the edge for me, although the minimalist in me really likes Dwm

good to hear it's still developed. certainly a nice wm.

AWESOME SHOW by the way.

And, look, it's Doze, so I can test my web stuff in IE:

if you just need to check your sites in IE, check out ies4linux.

I like to think that by using a virtual machine (which loads from a saved state in about two seconds) I haven't technically got IE on my PC

What's that little weather app? It looks awesome!

^^

It's an application called gDesklets and it's available in the repro's. Although, that particular desklets you have to download from here and then it's just a case of opening gDesklets>File>Install and just point to the file you just downloaded

Hope that helps.

So good, thanks a lot. =)

here's mine for this month

Arch Linux ( First time user )

It's one of those gdesklets (you can go to Synaptic, search for 'gdesklets', install it, and then go to this site: http://www.gdesklets.de/index.php?q=desklet/view/171 as this particular gdesklet is not one of the ones that is automatically installed (you can just download it and then, from within gdesklets, click File-->Install Package and install it. (It should then appear under 'Uncategorized' as 'GoodWeather Display', and you can double-click it and it will appear and you can set it up and all from there.

Remember if you want gdesklets to start with each Gnome session, you've got to go to System-->Preferences-->Sessions and add it, putting

gdesklets start

in the box for the command line

SORRY! I see Kitch already answered.... lol

That's really nice Good job..

After 5+ years of Red Hat and Fedora, my first *buntu screenie! Umm... Pretty much everything is the same as before. I don't like change very much, apparently.

Just wondering, but have you heard of fluxbuntu ? Wouldn't that be a nice *buntu distro for you?

Looks cool (especially the taskbar), but you should definitely try the Tango-Generator... You can also configure it to use the Ubuntu Studio icons as a base, but you also get tons of other (better) icons - like a tango version of the wifi symbol
