Desktop Screenshot Thread

Postby Chibirobo on Tue Jul 20, 2010 5:16 pm

Ive taken this idea from another forum but its pretty simple.
Like the title says you post a picture of the screenshot of your computer.
And for our bandwidths sake, post it in as a link.

First I'll start out with mine

I've been meaning to slap ubuntu on my machine for a while now. What's making your GUI so pretty? Or is that how GNOME comes these days?

Nope but it seems to be a popular thing in a lot of forums.

The dock is a program called Docky, I didn't use the one in the repos but instead just their own PPA. The theme is the actually the default theme in 10.04, I've not bothered changing it this it looks pretty decent at default. GNOME hasn't really changed much but I think GNOME 3 is getting released for 10.10.

Thats what I use for my vista, you just have to install it. Then you can make it pop up when your computer starts up and change where you put it and everything.
(I revamped mt vista so it looks like a mac os x so I should know this :P )
