Very cool, Sigmund. You certainly could use red in the conky display including the calendar title. My problem with the red was in the menu highlight bar and icons, not on the desktop.zigbert wrote:
You mean my school was the only one that kept their clocks from back in the 50s? If you wanted to know how much longer it was until lunch, you had to read an analog clock just like your father did. In fact, it may have been the same clock.alienjeff wrote:The bigger question is who is going to teach users born after 1985 how to read an analog clock?
I think this is a great default scheme and hopefully we can swapcutting edge
Ah, much better IMHO. Well done, Sigmund!zigbert wrote:

I'll make up a dotpet of the set compatible with the desktop icon changer. Can't promise when but it will be in time for 4.2a1, I hope.dogone wrote:That optical drive icon looks great.

I don't know what you are "doing wrong", but it looks to me like each widget is being treated as a window and the false transparency is resizing the nominated background image to fit that window rather than picking up the location coordinates and filling only with that section of the background image.zigbert wrote:2. Look carefully at the picture. The 'Puppy Space' widget and the 'calender' is rendered by conky. With this wallpaper it is easy to see that the conky background doesn't match the wallpaper. It is somehow displaced. What am I doing wrong?
