August 2018 Screenshots

brontosaurusrex · 2018-08-01 08:14:46

Welcome to the monthly BL Screenshot thread! We hope it inspires you to customize your dekstop.

Please use thumbnails. Do not embed images larger than approx 250x250px (62,500px) into posts, use thumbnails linking to a hosted image instead. Thanks!

We recommend https://scrot.moe for image uploads. After uploading your image, click "Embed codes" and copy/paste the "Thumbnail image (linked) BBCode" at the bottom of the page, done.

To open the posted scrot thumbnail fullscreen in Firefox, scroll down to the Download icon on the right (next to Like and Share), right-click it and choose "Open Link in New Tab" to open the screenshot in a new browser tab, then switch to that tab.

scrot.moe was created and is maintained by our very own mrneilypops, a long-time forum member. Thank you very much, mrneilypops!

It appears this old machine might just be enough to run 2.8 series (actually this is the 1st 2.8 build that I could start here)

@b-rex, beautiful render!

Thanks for starting the thread, stickies fixed.

I've edited your OP for formatting. I see what you did, but the switch is a bit jarring and we lose the bold text by quoting, it seems.

Plasma on Bunsen buster, some theming improvements...

hhh · 2018-08-02 05:11:32

-mod- A little edit to the OP announcement, to make it more welcoming.

brontosaurusrex · 2018-08-02 07:40:01

Ok, I'am all for consistency and it makes me look smart.

hhh · 2018-08-03 00:18:55

Lol! Thanks.

@mrneilypops, you're image-hosting is fantastic and I love you for it. Smooches and puppy kisses.

I'm basking in the glow of this rather pathetic logo. I love you, Debian. Smooches and puppy kisses.

August is always a slow month for screenshots.

BL helium with themes set to Crocus-Remix and small tweaks to tint2 and conky...

I plan on sharing this as a BLOB setting. @bronto, maybe using your program (haven't tested it yet. I really know nothing about damo's BLOB either, TBH).

-edit- Side panel. The panel is too wide, probably a padding setting. I just widened it till the clock fit (60px, it should be 50) for this quicky scrot.

Note to self; remove tooltip border-roundness in tint2

hhh · 2018-08-05 06:59:17

Yes, that was it. The clock has 8px horizontal padding by default. Set it to zero and you can narrow the panel to 50px instantly.

openbox + tint2 + jgmenu

Having fun working on some new jgmenu features - a taster for the next release

@hhh
Many thanks for the smooches and puppy kisses

ArchLabs (mainline kernel 4.18.0-rc7-mainline installed by yours truly)...all OK so far...but comes with a health warning;

@bronto, that's a nice scrot man

@malm, I like what you have there.

that's some solid journalism there; i didn't realise theregister were doing that also.

check out the comments. completely derailed with the first one
...though if you care to read on, there's also this:
"Fu@#ing Impressed
Torvalds managed that whole post without swearing..."

^ Perhaps he realized that he is sort of a role model.

Still working on that 'noise' script

Lol! X-Files, I see what you did there.

Just booted my old ThinkPad T30 that hasn't been booted in 7 years. Has an install of statler on it.

I’m thinking about putting netbsd 8 or openbsd stable on it next since the Linux KPT patches are really hard on enemic x86 hardware.

^That black terminal look was what first brought me to CrunchBang.
Maybe @hhh could be induced to write a "Statler" theme for Lithium.

Before you overwrite it, please, please, PLEASE upload the Openbox theme and default wallpapers!!!

@johnraff, I could get close very easily...

I'd need to update the GTK3 folder of my Hydrogen #! theme and color-tweak it. Statler icons can be found here...

Getting RAM down to Statler levels I'd leave up to the user.
