IceWM, themes

[GuestToo]

Icewm 1.2.20 Full for Puppy 1.0.1

edit: 24/08/2006 attachment deleted to save space

Full means i compiled in just about everything except xinerama support

this a a basic package (just about identical to my basic Unleashed package)

this will install to /root/.icewm and /root/my-applications/bin
it does not install to /usr

there is a readme.txt file in /root/.icewm

if you already have a /root/.icewm dir, it should be backed up to /root/.icewm-101

i included just a few small and light themes

if you have MtPaint 0.95, you should be able to take a screenshot by pressing the PrintScrn key ... or ctrl+alt+P

if you have problems, you should be able to kill X by pressing ctrl+alt+backspace, then run fvwm95 by typing:
startx fvwm95

Hi, just googled for some icewm themes

I found a great looking XP like theme (hope we don't get a letter from Bill now )
The problem is the size of about 800KB

You install it after you have installed the icewm*.pup file:

(I assume you downloaded the/any theme to /root )

1.)
cd /root/.icewm/themes

2.)
tar zxvf $HOME/Berry*gz

3.)
Now the theme should be displayed under the themes entry...

Would be nice to have some themes with a screen copy on the wiki..?

Have fun,

PS

Hi. found 2 great looking themes for icewm:

* armitageIII
* deedlit

both app. <200KB because of the wallpaper. Without it only a couples of KB!

(google for them...)

Since Wallpaper are not included (copyright?)

1.)
download theme.tgz to $HOME (/root)

2.)
cd /root/.icewm/themes

3.)
tar zxvf $HOME/theme.tgz

4.)
cd <themedir>
vi default.theme
#put in the folling lines with vi i
DesktopBackgroundImage="<imagename.jpg>"
DesktopBackgroundCenter=0
DesktopBackgroundScaled=1

deedlit-Aqua theme for Icewm

G2-Aqua theme must be installed

This is a theme that I came up with by stealing bits and pieces from other themes. Did a little Gimping too as well for some of it. I call it Abby (the name of the dog in my avatar). Screen shot. Desktop icons not included.

simple-tri IceWM theme

it has 3 colors (see the taskbar in the screenshot)

yellow - active window and active menu item
seagreen - normal window (not minimized) and desktop
lightgreen - minimized window and taskbar


IceWM tip:

if you don't like Alt+Tab switching to minimized windows you can change the line #QuickSwitchToMinimized=1 to QuickSwitchToMinimized=0 in the preferences file

yet another IceWM theme for the curious

it was based on Icedesert and the wallpaper and some colors are from the WindowMaker theme "Sticks1"

If you want to use the themes from MU icewm ultra without the extras, I have zipped them up and mirrored them here

just unzip to /root/.icewm

Enjoy
