I’ve created my own theme for IceWM. Well actually I just edited someone elses… but I think it looks pretty nice. Here’s a screenshot:
You can download this theme for yourself by clicking on this link.

Time for another screenshot… I haven’t done one of these for a while and the
other day I was browsing through my collection and found this:
Previous to taking this screenshot I had wasted about 2 days compiling KDE 3.3 from source,
which at the time was about 2 years out of date, because I though that it [...]

I just had a quick look to find a nicer theme for Thunderbird and maybe an add-on to minimise to tray. I was quite annoyed to find, as I have in the past with certain themes and that, this:
“MinimizeToTray is not available for Linux.”
I’ve seen Firefox/Thunderbird criticised in the past because although it’s an open [...]

I’ve been playing a lot with virtual machines lately. Its something I’ve been curious about for a while but due to limited power on my older computers I couldn’t play with it properly. Now that I’ve got my new laptop I can, and works pretty nicely. I opted to use VirtualBox to run the [...]

Just to keep things ticking over… I’ve got about 5 long posts that are about half-written so in the mean time here is another old screenshot I took, probably from 2006. The intention behind this desktop setup was to configure KDE to mimic the default appearance of GNOME, and it looks quite pretty.

This is a recent screenshot from my laptop. It is KDE 3.5.9 running on Debian Sid. I’m always trying to mix and match themes, window decorations and wallpapers to try and achieve a minimal, efficient and slightly retro look without making it ugly.

Here’s a screenshot that was sent to me by my friend HUMPY, who is from Holland. I met HUMPY playing ET-F on the Kindergarten server back in 2006. In my geeky way I correctly guessed that he’s running SuSE 10.0…. In my defence I recognise it because I used it for a while. SuSE 10.0 [...]

I’m in the process of writing some longer posts about the stuff I’ve been playing with lately so for now you’re getting another old screenshot to keep you entertained. This shot is from November 2006, it is of KDE with a dark blue theme. The style and window decorations are called “Domino”. In the bottom [...]

This is my screen as it is today. So far I haven’t added a large desktop environment to my Arch Linux system, mainly for political reasons (And partly because I’m trying to cut down on bulk, both in terms of hard disk space and use of RAM). I found the wallpaper on an image archive [...]
