Hello, Puppus Dogfellow.

Yep, "tok-tok" icons. Glad you enjoyed the little Penguin joke! TWYL

Sorry it took so long. I didn't forget!

It has apparently been too long to edit my post, so here it is, the conky configs for my previously posted neon goodness!

Requires a Conky 1.7 + to display the image and certain things correctly, the 1.6 didn't do it. http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=48725

And giving credit where credit is due, that wonderful neon puppy face was made by stevoomba. http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=83900&sid=f78ae4603cb94238e10f5e824f9edcba Best icon ever Very Happy

And the basic design/layout, and much of the actual positioning of things comes from PinguyOS.

I recently discovered Iguleder's GuyDog, and found it runs much better on my old Thinkpad X24 (256M RAM) than the Lupu 5.1 I had been using, even with GuyDog's better features (Openbox, tint2, wbar). A big thank you to Iguleder (also to dejan555 for the wallpaper concept).

These are thumbnails, click to view larger. The theme is Owl Light.

Faenza icons, and I replaced the stock GTK icons with Faenza action icons. Figured out how to autohide wbar (set unfocused alpha to 0).

OK, so it sounds like you take compton and add it to a lightweight WM/DE and then it can do fancy stuff that the WM/DE wouldn't ordinarily be able to do...

Neat!

What WM/DE are you using it in, in your screenshot?
