Some custom made icons in the wbar.

Able to run conky without borders and make it seem tranparant due to the uniform backround color.
Conky font is Eurostile Extended and Eurostile Bold extended. Better known as the Casio font.
JWM style based on the Darkilouche GTK theme.

Supports client Windows 7, 8, 8.1 and 10TP(9926), 32 and 64-bit natively.
just to avoid confusion.

At 80MB full install I don't thinks there's much that can be removed

for xp/2000 theres xplite, vorck fileset and nlite.

Mike, do you have an already-made lite version of Windows 7/8? If so make it available for download and ask Ally to mirror it as a derivative of Puppy.

@solo:

Very ugly.

Very ugly.

Except for the clock.

I think it looks nice, myself -- but, then, I'm a fool for the Microgramma fonts and their derivatives

They go very well with these times of rectangles and squares with bevelled edges. It almost seems they're designed to complement that.
I'm sure they would go very well next to the Faenza icon family.

Unfortunately, they quickly become unreadable at smaller sizes.

But for making stylish bold space age statements, excellent fonts.

Hello, all.

Version 8 of the wmx window manager is out!

In this picture, it is running on Puppy Precise 5.4.3.

From top to bottom
* conky one-liner
* ipager
* /root/.wmx folder
* puppy menu by click of middle mouse button (Graphics sub-menu
__ with layout lines)
* xclock with current day in sideways title bar
* bmpanel2 with transparent Light-T theme (customized).

The source is available from author Chris Cannam's site. I've given a little
more detail about the new features on the wmx thread.

BFN.

Mike, do you have an already-made lite version of Windows 7/8? If so make it available for download and ask Ally to mirror it as a derivative of Puppy. Very Happy

well at around 4GB I estimate about 12 hours to upload if the connection behaves... so might not rush into that.
Thats assuming I can zip up hard links....

Its sat in a corner waiting for a reason to co exist for now...

Nevermind, I was thinking lite versions

I was not offering...

By the way the original install of 7 professional was over 12GB.

Yep. Trashy thoughts, my friend.

Double post. Sorry.

My 17 year old PC running Slacko Puppy Linux 5.7 complete with full wired sound system with sub woofer, printer, LCD monitor and a boombox rebuilt and modded to be my pc's AM FM radio and casset drive via headphone patch cable plugged in to the line in port.

As simple as possible...

mikeb · #55 Post by **mikeb** » Thu 26 Mar 2015, 05:57

Simple too...must change that wallpaper

by the way is Lucid booting from menu in 17 seconds and idling at 0-1% acceptable on a pentium 3?

Hi, mike.

Is that the icewm wm in your pic ? (In spite of the xfce mouse icon
on the bar at bottom left)

BFN.

mikeb · #57 Post by **mikeb** » Thu 26 Mar 2015, 12:22

ey up... its (older) xfce4.....
but rox pinboard but I realised I don't use the icons on that one since there is wbar, menu and quick launchers.
Icons seem overkill plus surprisingly desktop icons cannot be accessed when programs are running.

My Puppy is on a laptop, so the surroundings change often.

Dell Inspiron, 1GB ram, 1TB hard drive. Screenshot is Lucid 5.2.8 full install on sda1. I just finished creating the background image in Gimp and I'm kind of proud of it. Also currently have TahrPuppy frugal on sda2. sda3 is storage and there is a 1gb swap partition, too. wbar cleaned up the desktop nicely, though I may try some other docks. I've only been using puppy for about a month, so I'm still learning a lot. (by the way, is there some code I could add here to resize the image more appropriately? Or do I just have to reference a url of a smaller copy of the image?)

mtpaint can resize

That would do it

Thanks. I just thought there might be a tag (like the html example below) that would specify the size that the image is displayed here, without me having to resize the image on my computer then re-upload it back to the web and change the link in my posting so it points to the newly resized image url.
