November desktop

First little bit about my desktop in general. What I have there almost all the time. (In parenthesis the application I’m using atm.)

  • IM (Pidgin)
  • RSS reader (Liferea)
  • More than one terminal window (urxvt)
  • Audio player (mpd/ncmpc++)
  • IRC client (Irssi)
  • µ-blogging client (Gwibber)
  • Browser (Firefox 3.5.5.)
  • Clock / System related information / updates / weather / bling bling (Conky)

I generally prefer dark and simple looking themes, but of course there are exceptions making the rule. My choice of wallpaper, well… Colours vary mostly in grey, green and turquoise shades. I like abstract and architectural wallpapers, nature and especially grass, ladybugs etc… I usually don’t have humans on my desktop and you definitely won’t catch me staring at your average bikini girl wallpaper nor oily hunk. Rather something like what I had in September (although it’s pleasure to look at/listen to David Gahan… did I mention I’m going to go Depeche Mode gig in February). Well it’s just matter of what different people find aesthetic. I’m pretty picky about this wallpaper stuff… Anyway.

To give little idea what I like. I change wallpapers pretty often and I’m always checking Customize.org for new ones. Vladstudio, ether, Miriam Moshinsky, iuneWind, jugga-lizzle for example are good too, to name few.

    Very nice. I like the greyish theme and the colour in the terminal.

    I like also your very clean conky. But what are the 6 (5 black + 1 blue) rectangular boxes on the right?

    @Nico: They are showing which desktop I am using. Blue one is obviously the active one. More about it in Conky blog.

    @Samae: Thank you, nice that I was able to help. :)
