On dual monitors, here's a little playing around in gimp with backgrounds for KLV-spectrwm, and some gtkdialogue scirpts with realtime cpu and mem monitors, as well as some hotkey lists showing just how well you can operate KLV-spectr without a mouse.

New desktop with the new image I just finished (practicing my graphic design). Have to remember though, it's "simple - fast - free" instead of "fast - simple - free"
If you like the image, you can download it here: https://ibb.co/86pJQPn - You might have to edit the image and make it brighter. Depends on your monitor. The desktop monitor I'm using displays the image just fine but a bit dark on my laptop.

Current daily driver - Xenialpup64 : highly-modified, heavily-upgraded & hugely-customized.

Kernel k6.9.1, glibc 2.31. Usual "Infocenter" on the right - gKrellM + pWidgets.......and a cleaned-up, streamlined, re-coloured, smoother "take" on the wallpaper I've been using for my equally highly-modded Slacko 5.6.0.

Same old, same old, really.....!! Image

[Click to enlarge:-]

Image

Populated with the usual host of 'portable' browsers/apps, along with a smattering of Windows applications running under WINE v9.8 ATM.....

Spending time with the family and a question was brought up, "who doesn't like a puppy?", and it gave me an idea.

Wallpaper and a few others can be found here: viewtopic.php?p=123928#p123928

Starting with EasyOs 6.0

Barry Kauler project, what else?

Surprised with the way it works, its speed and possibilities of use.

As I said at EasyOs subforum, I am starting working with it.... this summer I haven't got a lot of time, but I think It will satisfy my needs.

More or less, this is the default easyos desktop.

Congrats, Barry, CHEERS

The things you do not tell us, are usually the clue to fixing the problem.
When I was a kid, I wanted to be older.
This is not what I expected :o

Is this something like a @mikewalsh approach?

Not exactly sure what is the mikewalsh approach.

It is a Star Trek style lcars wallpaper, a neon style icon set, deleted some desktop icons, and moved what was left around, changed location of the tray to top.
Adjusted location of the drive icons (Puppy Event Manager->Rox icons), and location of Conky (edit conkyrc), with some color changes to Conky (Conky Settings).

The @mikewalsh approach is to build and use a wallpaper with sections that look like windows and place the icons in those wallpaper "windows"

That's how yours looks, so I'd say yes, you're kind of doing the same thing.

@bigpup / @geo_c :-

I can see what @geo_c means.

I use "docks".......but those 'docks' are NOT applied by a piece of software. Rather, I modify, then draw my 'docks' directly onto the background wallpaper in the locations where I want them. This allows me to group certain classes/types of application together in the same place so that I always know where to find them.

I got into this habit many years ago, before I'd even heard of Puppy.....way back in my Windows XP days. This was when I first began using MooiTech's 'PhotoScape' (extremely good for this kind of thing, and I've used it ever since). I've always enjoyed graphic design - dates all the way back to my senior years at secondary school, encouraged by a very progressive art teacher we had - and during my last few years with XP I was part of a discussion group at DeviantArt on "human interface design cues" (long since disbanded, I'm afraid). 'Twas here that I evolved the early seeds of what would eventually develop into my Puppy 'look'.

I've always liked a 'busy' desktop, with stuff going on all the time. I intensely dislike digging down through multi-level menus to find what I want.....I frequently can't remember quite what IS installed, there's so much of it! :D My Pups have always been general workhorses, so they have to be able to cope with everything I throw at them.....

(*shrug...*)

Mike. ;)

EasyOs ScarthGap 6.0.2

Post by pp4mnklinux »

I like this OS a lot.

It gives me "emotion" again.

It takes a little bit to be used to it... but it is what I like (speed) although I miss some "beauty" :)

Give it a try. Recomended.
