Every couple of weeks I get sick of my desktop look and decide to got with a new one.
This was my desktop 15 minutes ago…
Now the only thing I kept the same besides the font and the panel transparency are the Faenza Icons. What makes me like them is that their squared shape gives them the feeling of good organization.
Now this is my new desktop.
I am using the new Ubuntu wallpaper. I know a lot of people don’t like it but IMHO if you give it time its kinda takes you in. It has some depth to it if you give it enough space. Thus I changed Docky to be 3D and removed the side dock. The top panel is semi transparent. This is my personal opinion about my desktop so please no offensive comments.
Here is another picture of a modified elegant gnome theme…
Hope you like it…

my eyes!!
Nice desktop! I understand how you feel, after about 2-4 weeks themes and designed start to feel old, and run down. A new theme is a HUGE difference!
Looks good! Keep it up!!

Do you have any kind of release scheduled for the OMG! Desktop award system?
The woodpanel wallpaper is amazing.
Where can I download it?
Nice, except for the diseased-looking new Maverick default wallpaper…
I approve, sir! ..but I’ll see your 3d dock and global menu bar and raise you ARGB translucency.

Cory,
OMG Desktop awarding system is nearly over. Just need to implement 2 wishlist
https://bugs.launchpad.net/omg
and update the documentation
BTW now we have lua bindings for OMG too
https://launchpad.net/luomg
Probably after fixing two bugs marked as wishlist and a bit of testing, we can come out with an alpha
The problem with a transparent panel is that it looks odd, if you maximize a window.
there aren’t many things as annoying as the macification of Linux desktops
Faenza icons are gorgeous, thank you !
I like the wood panel background, would you please share the link or give a hint where the wallpaper could be downloaded?
Thank you
The purple background was perfect, before the orange blotches. I even cropped and scaled a version to use on my Prē for the wallpaper. But when I upgraded and saw a giant orange blotch, the first thing I thought was “great, broken video drivers again.”
It’s indeed a nice looking desktop. It looks like you’re using awn. How do you get two panels? I’ve been trying to add another one for a couple of weeks now.
Looks great, though I think I prefer the former. It’s a shame that the Faenza Dark icons are so ugly in the panel.
Hm, or you might be using Docky. Don’t know for sure.
Anyway, I figured it out already.
The dark themes of Ubuntu make me ill.
Yes please – I would like the wooden background, if it is CC licensed. Thanks!
I like it
Which file manager are you using? Is it nautilus with some special configuration?
Neat blog layout! Very easy on the eyes.. i like the colors you picked out
Nice desktop. I’ve not found a good source of tri-screen backgrounds to span my 3 monitor setup. But I’d settle for one good background like these.
