Re: Unofficial Post Your Linux Mint Desktop Thread
Thank you very much Lou. Thought I would make a wall, has been awhile since I have made one for Mint.

Re: Unofficial Post Your Linux Mint Desktop Thread
Once again nothing special, just decided to Scify up the desktop a bit....

Took a Conky I found on Gnome-look.org and modified it to have a Scify feel, and added a ping check for my favourite MMO's so I know before I try to login if the servers are down or not.
Other than that I just added a wall paper I got from NASA's site.
****EDIT****
If you guys like the conky setup I have in this image I've uploaded it to Gnome-look.org with a few alterations, mainly removed the server ping bit and added a RSS Feed, and Gmail tracker. Also have added monitoring for Dual CPU's

Re: Unofficial Post Your Linux Mint Desktop Thread
Great desktops as ever here 
... haven't posted for a while.
Running Archlinux Fluxbox, on my Laptop (i hope LMDE FB comes some day
)

The black bar @ the conky is some kinda Screenshotbug, but it comes everytime.

It is interesting the way we create complex and powerful tools to save us
from the complex and powerful tools we created previously.

Linux Mint 13 LTS
Re: Unofficial Post Your Linux Mint Desktop Thread
I have started setting up the desktop more to my taste. I used conky before, but so long ago that I had forgotten everything. I found the weather options difficult to get working reliably, so I made a crontab script to download the weather plus icons from wunderground every half hour, and just used conky to display the text.
I am not happy with the “Controls” theme. Is there some way I can modify this myself, rather than using a pre-set theme? I want the background to be transparent, as it is now, but the time is too difficult to read. The best I found was Carbon Controls which is used above.
