Not exactly very different from my last couple of shots.

Nice shot (as usual), do you have a "How To" on installing Openbox on Arch?

I would like to try out Arch and Openbox as the PC I use Linux on isn't the fastest

What is the media player in the "Oh no not more blue" screenshot.

It looks like an improved on Muine... if it is, what kind of configuration are you using.

It's Pygmy, an mpd client.

Umm, how about "pacman -S openbox". Voila! Openbox is now installed. Rejoice!

Here's mine for Feb.

It's Ubuntu Breezy, using an SVG wallpaper from gnome-wallpapers and a gradient colour background. Icons are Tango Unofficial. GTK is the latest CVS patched Clearlooks enabling animations and cairo goodness :)

I'm using just the one panel with the Deskbar Applet for quickly finding apps / files, and NetworkManager CVS to connect to my wifi (Works better than XP on the same laptop!!).

Gnome 2.12

Experimenting with new window managers, today it's JWM!

[phoe*nix]

Theme: Dark theme from www.gnomelook.org

Icons: 3da from www.gnomelook.org

Ok, I'm trying to go for the minimalistic OpenBox approach this time.. I'm new to openbox so I hope you guys like it. :)

[ViperSnake]

If you need a good new Openbox theme StreetGames, I made one if you like Purple...

Your interface looks incredibly MacOSX-like, yet you claim to be running Suse linux.. what themes, window manager and dockbar are you using there?

Great shots, anyway :)

Suse Linux 10.0

Kde/Kwin 3.5

Much of the work is done by baghira, cvs version -

http://baghira.sourceforge.net/OS_Clone-en.php#step1

"Finder" is konqueror with the baghira sidebar and OS-L icons (linked in the above tutorial)

"Mail" is Thunderbird with Tiger Mail skin - https://addons.mozilla.org/themes/moreinfo....ion=thunderbird

"Safari" is Firefox with Safire skins - http://www.deviantart.com/view/20457909/ http://www.deviantart.com/view/19147285/?offset=100 with some userchrome edits to get the gradient toolbar and tabs.

"Dock" is Ksmoothdock - http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=6585 with the background colours changed to suit.

looks nice but the cartoon font really spoils the great looking of your desktop.

Here is my Ubuntu desktop, still tweaking it. Feels very slugish compared to Windows XP and I'm having sound issues. :(
