that is very nice, I am curious as to your site however (the screenshots link in your sig). Do you have some managed hosting or are you just on a really nice connection? All of your screenshot thumbnails loaded immedietly, so i was just a bit curious as to your secret. |
Thanks I'm actually on a shared hosting package with a newish (c. 3 years old) UK company (hosted on a dual opteron w. 2GB ram as far as I can make out - been some upgrades recently, though not sure what the connection speed is - usually seems pretty speedy ). |

That's pretty sleek man, when I get my laptop back I'm going to experiment with GNOME, KDE and Fluxbox to try to make a great UI.
Props on that again. Nice font for date, etc....

Thanks, I had to do some editing to the kbf theme to make it fit better which is the vista theme available from kdelook.org. About the font, I was just searchin through which fonts looked cool and that one caught my eye, not sure which font package it comes from but its in portage. |

Yup, if you get the latest version of kbfx thats what your menu will look like by default but it will have a different theme. You can install or make your own themes for it, some nice themes are available from http://kdelook.org.
As for the folders not showing, I'm not sure. I couldnt get the kbfx in portage to work so I used the cvs version off the kbfx site: http://www.kbfx.org/staticpages/index.php?page=20060224122953187#cvs. I saw somewhere on the forums some people had problems with their menu not showing up, but I think using the latest cvs version fixes it. |

Here's a little preview of my new compiz theme based off Gilouche. This is compiz, not metacity meaning you can get all the wobbly windows and scaler plugin goodness. I'll put up a link to it once I get everything fixed.
Click me!
Gilouche compiz theme
You need gcompizthemer and most likely need to be using Quinn's compiz. _________________ Ubuntu Linux Dapper Drake running Gnome-2.14.1

it's made white or whot's the diference with the original?
maybe we should be writing a theme loader instead of hacking on the source itself to change themes no... |

There is a theme loader out there. It's called gcompizthemer. The difference between this theme and the default compiz is huge. It's like comparing a fluxbox look to the default Clearlooks metacity theme.
