Trying to create eye candy screenshots again

That's lovely. Reminds me of old times when everyone ricing *box WMs and pixel fonts were the cure for low ppi TN displays. Good to see you back to what you do best, Mr. /r/unixporn MVP.

Nothing beats Fluxbox if you want to tweak window decorations.
That shot reminds me of once so fashionable Pekwm. Orange was the trend colour of 2008.

Addy, very nostalgic and fresh

If I remember correctly, Pekwm orange was exactly what urukrama was rocking on the Ubuntu scrot threads in 2008...

-edit- There was someone else on the CB forums who was always posting innovative Pek scrots... rounded windows and menus, transparency, cool walls, but I cannot for the life of me remember his username right now.

He joined this forum early on didn't he?

I thought so, but my memory is a blur.

Hanna and arpinux, I had forgotten.

Sea Blocks, by Hanna...

"Cruchbang" (sic) by dinozaur...

And as far as screenshots go, let's not forget fog. This scrot is tame for her. Very gutterslob influenced...

I remember one theme she did where she used the Openbox gradient settings, the theme was blues, greens and oranges with a matching gtk theme, and it had a trippy matching wall, it was absolutely stunning. She was good.

If I'm doing ol' skool from the website, I might as well post my masterpiece from four years ago...

Cross-posting from the ArchLabs forums.

Heavy intensity rain, I like the sound of that.

And one from Dobs...

Thanks for that, though my scrot does look a little sparse big_smile

This is a current scrot, nothing has really changed:

Thanks. I'm pissed that I don't have a copy of the translucent tetra fish one that was on the website for awhile. I think it was awesomewm though, not Openbox. Also my cwm grasshopper desktop from way back, that one was nice.

Nostalgic names on this page. arpinux was probably the first person that sent me a PM on the #! forum. I thought we had chemistry going, but turned out he was only after my body wallpapers and themes.

Hanna was the PekWM poster girl. She had some spanking conky setups too, though she, like everyone in existence, too a back seat to Mr. Peachy in that department.

As far as *box style setups go, the ones I probably miss the most are fog's. Her screenshots literally sang to you.

So many forgotten/abandoned window managers. PekWM, Musca, WMFS....

Oh, and a special shoutout to the chap who created the ACYL GTK and icon sets.

ohnonot · 2020-02-17 07:21:42

ACYL is still going.
PekWM, not so much although this still seems to be getting occasional updates, and the archwiki page is not flagged out of date.

The icons were by pobtott in 2009.

I haven't WM-hop in a long time. My Fluxbox custom.

@nili, seems like you're just revisiting an old friend. Really nice, as always.

hhh · 2020-02-18 02:51:53

@Sector, I read the clock and it said 88:88:88. What time zone is Argentina in again? I'm guessing Jupiter. tongue

glittersloth · 2020-02-18 03:01:07

^ Jupiter actually has the shortest day out of all the planets in our solar system, believe it or not. Forget reaching 88, the hour mark wouldn't even touch 10 on a Jovian clock. Very windy though.

Thanks bro hhh, that old friend is the reason i'm digging Fluxbox, also Openbox, tint2, polybar etc... So, kudos to Addy for all inspirations.

S11, that's a new tint2 style on a while right? glad you made a fresh toolbar.

Not just nice, a very cool usage of the Lithium theme. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you, @hhh, for your words of praise.

I spent a week in Pisa with my grandson. Beautiful sunny and warm weather.
So I counterfeit the weather for Germany... big_smile

@damo's "Fever Room" inspired theme I made for lithium with some vintage Star Wars artwork...
