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:

ArchLinux - its rson451's fault his cool screenshots made want to install it :)

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. :)

    • Yes for me, I installed 'old calculator' (Windows 7 calculator) in its place since it is more useful to me. I think paint is the only one I left installed
    • eh I'll wait for the June 2026 MVS ISO downloads which should be coming out next Tuesday June 16 and possibly contain build 8655 instead of 8653

    • Cooler Master MasterFrame 600 PC case is now 33% off on Amazon by Ivan Jenic The Cooler Master MasterFrame 600 is currently $109.99 on Amazon, down from its original $164.99 list price. That's 33% off and $55 saved on this premium aluminum mid-tower case with a modular design. If you're upgrading your PC case and want something that doesn't force you into a rigid layout, the MasterFrame 600 is worth a look. The case is built around the Cooler Master's FreeForm 2.0 platform, which lets you reconfigure the internal structure according to your hardware. Magnetic side panels allow for straightforward adjustments, and the case supports everything from Mini-ITX to E-ATX motherboards without compromise. There's also generous cooling headroom. Four pre-installed PWM fans handle airflow out of the box. GPU clearance goes up to 410mm, and the case supports radiators up to 420mm with room for three simultaneously. Truth be told, this might not be the prettiest case on the market, but it’s highly functional. The aluminum construction keeps the whole thing lightweight despite its size, and the finish looks noticeably better than the plastic mid-towers competing at this price point. If you want a serious, flexible case that prioritizes function over flashy aesthetics like RGB lighting, the MasterFrame 600 delivers at a reasonable price.
