GNU / Linux October 2009 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.

Awesome desktops, guys! The more I see Crunchbang, the more I want it! But we're this close to Ubuntu 9.10 so I think I'll wait.

The thing is, you can always install Openbox in Ubuntu and get a similar thing. To get the similar setup, you'll also need titn2 panel, conky, and some other programs, but it's basically just that.

Having said that, I was too lazy to do it myself, even though I'm sure I might give it a try someday. And that's the beauty of CrunchBang, comes preconfigured and saves you a lot of the work.

And so many amazing apps! Most of the software it comes with I always end up installing anyway, it just makes sense to start with #! in the first place. Especially the terminal apps section, makes you wonder how you survived without it before.

Edit: Decided to add my own screens, even though its pretty much default #!. What can I say it suits my taste exactly.

P.S. Ootput, what are you playing?
