Well , im curious how everyone customize their Linux or Ubuntu other than Windows and Mac

Here's how i customize :



Customize using Ambience Theme + Faenza Variance + Covergloobus 1.7.4 + Banshee + Docky (Deep Docky 3D theme) (for desktop edition)

And a beautiful Ayumi Hamasaki Wallpaper

Rules :

1.For big size screenshots , please include a spoiler for them

2.If spoiler is not an option , try resizing your screenshots before posting them

Here are some links contributed by our LYN members for the breathtaking desktop customization links .

Hw bout urs

@cocooh
There's already a desktop screenshot thread here:
http://forum.lowyat.net/DesktopCustomization

About your screenie;
Why do you have both Unity and Docky installed? Don't both do the same thing?
Sorry for the ignorance, as I don't use docks/launchers.

Unity = for testing purposes , not a fan as it still uses old engine instead of Compiz . I posted here coz @@ maybe alot of Linux users will c it here rather than Desktop Customization area - packed with Windows users @@

Sorry if i posted at a wrong place

^No, no .. you don't have to apologize (I'm not an admin/mod)
Just wanted to let you know, that's all.

I'd be happy if you started a Linux desktop screenshot thread, but you might want to change the thread title to something a bit more catchy, and you might want to ask a mod to pin/sticky the thread on top.

BTW, if you do start a Linux screenshot thread here, will I be allowed to post BSD screenies?

Not to siding anyone but, Mac have their own "Show Off Your Desktop - MacOS X only" thread, so I think we could also have one dedicate just for Linux desktop~
Just IMO..

If I am not mistaken we do have our own desktop screenie thread created few months back by someone... hard to flip back as my connection currently slow. But if we already started here, then just let it be lah... mine currently on windows xp la beb, reaching house sooner this evening I'll post my opensuse and mint, nothing much to show off as everything just default.

In that case, I'll post one for now. Lets hope a mod pins this thread.

Not at home, so only my netbook shot this time.

Free-BSD, ScrotWM, Urxvt + apps

I don't exactly know how to customise my Ubuntu. Any guides would be good

How to install Covergloobus :

Download these deb's , found them in covergloobus ppa , though its only available for Lucid and Karmic through PPA , Maverick users can still use it =) 100% safe , no crashes on it

x32 deb

x64 deb

Themes can be obtained from Deviantart =)

Do post your desktops screenie ya

Lookin foward to see it

Mine of my opensuse desktop. Owell, nothing much to show off. Just an ordinary Gnome and make it up with avant window navigator.

Yours too much advanced I think.. Very minimal..
Nice job~

o.o Opensuse looks as same as Ubuntu too ?

The interface not much different nia, its Gnome.. What dya expect??
But OpenSUSE taskbar only single by default(placed lower side) while Ubuntu/ any other distro I believe shall has 2(upper & lower)

Gnome is all the same, but you'll see some alteration been made into menu position as the default start button supposed to be at the below but I have to make it to the top just to make way to avant window navigator occupied at the bottom. I am using the famous faenza icons combined with opensuse's sonar theme.

wah...tq....
