My current desktop. A snapshot of a constantly evolving construct. Uncomplicated and easy to navigate. My one concession to self-indulgence is my choice of wallpapers. I prefer seascapes and other soothing images.

Thanks for the kind words, glad you like it! And another..



It's been only a few days since my last post, and I decided to make some changes to slim down my desktop. I love the results.
New themes: GTK, Metacity, Icons. And a new wallpaper.

Details:
Metacity: nMetacity
GTK2: Tango Inspirat
Icon Theme: Gnome-Brave
Window Title Font: MonteCarlo Sans
Terminal Font: ProFont (also use this in gEdit for scripting in perl)
Wallpaper: Colors by "panic tape"

Hi.
I'm new to this forum.

Here's my desktop:



It's a laptop with Gentoo and Fluxbox.
Other visible software are Eterm, Conky and WMdrawer
The style is Emerge with the background from Artwiz.
EDIT: Oh, yes, I use the GTK-theme Clearlooks Compact, but it's not visible in the screenshots
