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 :)

Thanks for the suggestion! I'm a noob at Linux cos I started to use Linux not so long ago :p

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

Yeah, I have. But, when I looked into that version about a year ago, it seemed that they were a bit behind the regular Ubuntu releases. I got the impression that they were a bit understaffed and less active.

Plus I had Xubuntu already burned because my wife wanted to try it, so no need to download and burn. :p

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. :p

You don't like window decorations either, it seems.

You don't like window decorations either, it seems.

I keep boinc and pidgin in the same spot, and don't need to remove/resize them, so I have them off.

Actually, I could keep them off for firefox and such. Just resizing and moving with ALT+left/right mouse buttons.

Admire my desktop :p

Not only will I admire, I will also ask where you got that wallpaper, or if you made it yourself with GIMP/Photoshop.

[Borbus]

I found that GTK theme, it is here: http://needcoffee.deviantart.com/art/innocent-stuff-44317193

It has the emerald theme and stuff with it too.

Well, you definitely need the Emerald theme, the Metacity one breaks in Compiz and adds tons of padding making them look mongohuge.

--edit: The GTK theme is stupid tho, elements keep being resized while being drawn.

What's that calendar stuff in your terminal?

[snap55]

I think the calendar app is Pal Calendar.

Slick looking desk springofdark.

[mitch00]

springofdark, what icon theme are you using?

[MrFuji]

I bet it's a tango-generator theme - look at the second theme here.

I think the theme itself was called Foglie but I'm not entirely sure...
