fooling around with arch and fluxbox again... i really like the arch-wallpaper-set...

Fluxbox looks nice. How would you rate it featurewise?

Mhm it's ok.. it's a bit hard to get used to at the start, but it looks nice, is fast and i like the system for my Laptop... for work on Laptop/Netbook it's much better than Unity or Gnome Shell (my opinion).. you can edit the look as you like (if you get how to do it xD) it's a lot of "textwork", but it's nice... programwise it's ok it runs all gtk programs without any problems ... ok QT/KDE programs look as stupid as they do on gnome/xfce and elsewhere expecting KDE, but thats a QT-"problem" .
You're free to let it look like you want relatively easy, but this is something which all DE's (expecting super usabillaty Gnome with it's gconf editor ) do.

red, but less...

Lou, if it matters, I like the "Red but Less" better. Plus it is closer to your dark theming tendencies.

opinions always matter. and I like it better as well. I was working on an all red theme just because I never see them. was just something to play with.

Both of your Red themes look good . . . but, personally I love the Red-Red one best.

You can never have too much black or too much red . . . or too much sugar.

[lKingjr]

well gosh, thanks all.

just some info...
the Red-Red theme is recolored Atolm available on gnome-look.org. you just need to use lxappearance to set the reds
the Red, But Less theme is Synapse, ditto
the window theme is recolored Fearless on box-look.org
the icons on RR are a mix of ACYL and Mint-X
the icons on RBL are straight ACYL

in case one couldn't tell. this is LM10 LXDE.

I'm using xcompmgr and transset-df for the transparencies etc.

@feed3: this is the biggest conky i've ever seen. But it looks really good . Where did you get it from?

[feed3]

@feed3: this is the biggest conky i've ever seen. But it looks really good . Where did you get it from?

yeah, the biggest conky i ever made.. coz i take the wallpaper as it's base.

but the idea is really cool... replacing a big/colourfull wallpaper with a big conky.
*i should steel the idea and make a distro with such a conkywall * (just a joke^^)
