GNU / Linux February 2008 Desktops - Posting Guidelines

* If you plan to img-embed your desktop, please try to keep it under 100k (It's recommended that you link it, externally).

* Stay within the board rules, no matter how yummy you may believe it to be.

* If you are going to quote, there isn't a need to quote an img-embeded picture - Just don't do it. Please just reference the post by page number/page link/etc.

* Off Topic Posts will be edited or removed.

* The desktops thread is not to be used as a means to post images of a pornographic or otherwise provocative nature. We do not support a babes forum and neither will we in an unofficial capacity. Please help to keep the thread relevant and safe to browse for everyone.

* The moderators of this forum reserve the right to edit or remove your posts as necessary so they may comply with our Community Rules.

* In the interests of keeping the thread on topic it is strongly urged that you format your posts in the following order:

Themes: Name/where you got it (with link would be nice).

Wallpaper: Name/where you got it (with link would be nice).

Icons: Name/where you got it (with link would be nice).

Programs: Name/where you got it (with link would be nice).

* Please use reduced-size thumbnails, where possible, out of respect for people running on lower bandwidth or screen resolutions.

Important Note: Any image posted that is over 800 x 600 will be removed! Use a thumbnail or use a text link to your image. If your image is removed, this is why.

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 :D ). 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:

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. :)
