Show off your TCB desktop!

There are some nice looking desktops in the gallery w/o much evidence of how they were achieved.

I thought that was what this thread was for.

Thanks  curaga,  and looks like I just needed more patience as all images showed up eventually


I'd be all over providing more info, but the gallery doesn't provide for another link from the image to where more info could be presented, though have added some additional meta data to the images

My conky is just a few lines long and made an extension of it.  Actually made several each with varying colored text which only requires a change to the onboot.lst  I removed the conf file from conky itself making a modded conky extension out of it, because sometimes it takes precedence over a custom conf file.  The custom conf file when loaded by it's own extension simply resides in place of the original, simple and effective.

  Does not having a .conkyrc file in your home directory work?

I luv the conky app/extension but I found no other method reliable enough.  Complete removal of default conf files which is ultimately replaced with my custom conf  (via a second small extension)  proved 100% successful on every boot, so I've stuck with this method ever since.
