QUOTE(G-17 @ Aug 21 2011, 07:45 PM) Now that's sexy!! I've been considering a fullscreen conky layout for my EvilWM setup, but since I prefer small pixel/bitmap fonts (Terminus, MonteCarlo, Artwiz...etc), I have to think of a LOT of variables for them to cover the whole screen, which is where I'm stuck right now. Don't really want to waste resources on LUA/Cairo animations and stuff. >_< @G-17  Wanna ask sumting bout subtle Which variable in the subtle config controls the top bar width  ? EDIT : got everything settled , was forced to stay small bcoz of some wrong value FIXED This post has been edited by cocooh: Aug 21 2011, 08:40 PM

^LOL I'm rather tempted : http://www.jfc.org.uk/software/lwm.htmlIntroduction: QUOTE lwm is a window manager for X that tries to keep out of your face. There are no icons, no button bars, no icon docks, no root menus, no nothing: if you want all that, then other programs can provide it. There's no configurability either: if you want that, you want a different window manager; one that helps your operating system in its evil conquest of your disc space and its annexation of your physical memory. Now that's hardcore!! This post has been edited by G-17: Aug 21 2011, 09:46 PM

For the last friggin time, use THUMBNAILS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Life lesson 1: Anything above 320x240 is NOT a thumbnail, regardless of what the foogin forum rule is.
It's not fun viewing broken forum layouts on netbooks and smartphones. >_<

@Cocooh That's because the Pragmata most of you use is not the real one. You have to pay a LOT of money for the real Pragmata, juts not worth it, especially when free fonts like Terminus and MonteCarlo still beat the shit out of it for sharpness and readability.
I like Artwiz anorexia, but can't use it for more than a couple of hours. It's a bit too square-ish for me.

^LOL I stopped piping dzen2-conky for scrotwm. Looks nice and all, but feels a bit ... uhm.... dirty >_< ... Like you're adding unnecessary nonsense on top of simple clean code. Just press Mod + B and you'll see what I mean.  Now I just stick to a standard conky or baraction.sh
