My minimalist work desktop so far. wmx as my window manager, idesk for all the decorations & static icons, & xcal, xload, xclock, & xbiff as undecorated windows. My load avg peaked above 1.0, & I got new mail while taking screenshots (using xbiff icons I drew today).

I like chakats, just in case it's not obvious. I'm a furry, what can I say. :3c

Also, it looks cool to me & isn't as hard as it looks to maintain if I need to add or remove icons that do things, but I'd like to hear if it looks cool to you, too.

When I finish, I'll write up a huge post of what I did, how I did it, and why I did it this way.

More progress with my desktop theme. There's still some work left, but it's mostly usable & somewhat presentable.

4 xbiff mail boxes beside 3 mail action icons (read mail, write mail, use webmail), above "Netscape" (Firefox), Xpdf, Gimp (rockin' the Deluxe Paint I brush), canfield solitaire, & a drawer for pcmanfm. I still need a volume mixer & frequent Web bookmarks.

@arielmt i wish i could make things like this :(

@squirrel You can. You just need motivation, patience, & that most precious of resources, time.

More encouragingly, when I'm done, I'm going to write up & show what I was thinking along the way. All of these are small & haphazard pieces, & it's almost accidental how I decided on this style.
