I made this topic, because in the general forum you can only show desktops with DS,
so for those who dont have DS installed, here's a SUYD (Show us your desktop) thread, where you can show off your cool desks without DS, of course , you can also show your desktops here with DS, but that's the official forum for.

So, here's mine:

Watch out, GoMa will kill you.

I Know
But isnt this off topic as well?

I mean the without DS desktops??

Dunno, just seems kinda of odd posting a desktop capture w/o Desktop Sidebar and posting the image on the Desktop Sidebar forums.

Hey I_M, if you dont like it delete it i dont mind i was thinking it was a good idea ...

BTW, the name of your WA skin?
ah, I'm back guys...

The Skin's name is iChange ... dunno where i got it ... but i uploaded it for you.
iChange Winamp Skin

thx!

Since GoMa hasn't bit anyone yet, I'm in!

And I finally found a decent replacement for DS - just look at the top.

Prism, what kind of program is that? ... i've used ubuntu for a while, but i didn't find anything like that ....

Great destop!

As a matter of fact, it's just GNOME's panel. You can add many applets to it, some of them are included as a default, an some of them can be downloaded via Synaptic.

There are, from left to right, shortcuts for my most used apps, a DeskBar applet (like the command line panel for DS), a weather applet, a network meter, the notification area, an automated mail checker and the CPU usage meter. Basically almost anything I need, and the open source nature of Linux ensures that if it doesn't exists, I can program it easily - for example, on the bottom right corner of the screen there's an applet I've developed which shows what's on TV now, based on the Israeli XMLTV script. I'm planning to release it after cleaning it up and making it more feature-rich.

Currently Reinstalling everything. Still got a few Visual Tweaks to do. But I'm running FreeBSD 6.0 w/Gnome 2.14, running gDesklets (w/weather forcast widget), gaim, termnial and thunderbird. The Open Office Icon is a icon set i found off the internet, and the firfox icons, are the Firefox Crystal set. the font on the whole computer, is one of the fonts from Mac OSX, Lucida Grande

Lookin' good

What made you choose thunderbird over evolution, BTW?

Well i haven't really choose defentally as of yet, i'm acctually switching between the two of them to see which i like better. I'm not leaning to either side as of yet.

Heres my desktop ... its a fresh install so no big deal ...
Hope you like it

Seems like Gnome is definitely the winner here...

BTW, WindowsKiller, is it dapper or breezy?

Its 5.10, breezy , i wanted to upgrade it to drapper 6.06 but i dont know how to ... you see im a linux newbie

This is just a minor update to my previous desktop , only some new desktop icons and a new wallpaper.

Nice WindowsKiller.

I guess it's time to post a minor update to mine.

The background is from gnome-look.org, the icon in the top corner i made from the main freebsd.org sites top logo, before i found this desktop background.

DemonBob, great desktop, what kind of icon theme are you using? Whats it called?
I know its tango but dunno where do DL it

I downloaded mine from http://art.gnome.org

Here's my win desktop ....
My Ubuntu is now in K.O. state, so i'll be using Win for some time

@ windowdkiller: nice desktop, what skin(s) are u using?

I'm using Lemon Vista WB Skin.

My minor contribution.

For something a bit more interesting, save the .wav file and change the themed sound in control panel for 'new mail notification'.

Scott

I dont use DesktopX, OD whatever, because it slows my pc down .. i only use Iconpackager.

So, here's mine:

Wallpaper: A Dreamy World 41th by grafixeye (deviantART: grafixeye.deviantART.com)
Icons: ClearXP_IP by CycoCed

Nothing too fancy, just the windows Royale theme with matching DS; I mixed a couple of existing Royale DS themes because none suited me completely. DS is hidden but when I get the replacement Samsung 214T monitor (RMA because of dead pixels) it will be set to visible again; 1600x1200 is soo much better for sidebars

Edit; sorry for the small pic, the forum won't let me upload it as a file attachment and imageshack isn't what it used to be

Edit 2; fixed it by using jpeg.

@mike_b1954; Paint jpeg looks so crappy, that's why I prefer png. Downside is the filesize, that's why imageshack gave me a smaller pic.

@Kapitein Prozac :

I usually save my screenshots as a jpeg ~

Click browse, add this attachment , then add into post .. finally ADD REPLY !

that usually works ..

ps .. Nice pic ! who is it ?

It's Lauren Graham (actress), a real cutie

Hey Guys! Sorry for not being here for a long time, but i needed to finish a project in school .... read about @
THIS LINK , yeah i know, it sound stupid ... but what can i do, my teacher said, that i must complete it .....

WindowsKiller- great looking desktop- good to have you back again.

As a builder I did not find the project to be stupid. Actually cool. Many climates have a moisture problem that will cause deterioration of the structure. Seeing alternative solutions to this problem is great. Here in the Northeast of the US we have basements that are underground level and they can pose moisture problems if not sealed correctly.

~ Thanks to WindowsKiller for bringing this thread back to life !
