I found a really nice site for Icewm themes and other eye candy. http://box-look.org/. Never came across it before but I'm been very pleased with it and impressed by the icewm themes they have available. I've been packaging a few I really like and I'll try and post them here. Of course, feel free to go ahead and download the tars yourself if you'd like Smile

Today's one is Icewm-dust:

Edit: A few posts down is a stripped down version of this pet done by Ttuuxxx. Thanks man.

and finally if you mix the taskbar only with my small themes and make it gtk so you have animated buttons, you get something like this Smile

It went from 2400kb pet to 23kb pet, 100 times smaller. Smile

and here's a update of your icewm-dust theme, I made the taskbar better looking because the button was too large and was stretching the taskbar images, also fixed the default font sizes. removed the background, mad some system links, removed extra icons and went from 346kb ---> 57kb

Brilliant, thanks Ttuuxxx, I'll link the original posts to your stuff. I really should have tried to make 'em smaller, but I guess I was feeling lazy and wasn't quite sure what to remove to shrink it. Thanks Ttuuxxx Smile

I was reading a page where someone asked for an mplayer theme in the steampunk style. That motivated me to create something for IceWM in that vein. So here is my mod of Golden Mood, to a steampunk-ish style. This only the fifth or so theme I've made (first that I posted) so be kind.

Edit: I forgot to do a few images, I updated the tgz.

EDIT: Here's the pet: Steampunk-icewm.pet

thanks for making the pet. Just as with ARu, my schools network wont allow me to upload any .pet because it thinks its some sort of spyware. I cant even attach one to an email. its frustrating. Glad you like it.

@ Zake_ajl,

This is a standard glitch. Everyone has been having this problem in 4.3.1. At least that's what I'm assuming you're using. Just thought to let you know, you're not alone, and it's not your fault. Smile
