The wallpaper is without a doubt superb and not just because it is a gorgeous face with unusual emphasis (the eyes) but wallpapers that feature a brighter section (up to 0.5 but usually better in the 0.3 - 0.4 area, like yours) and a darker section I find most pleasing to work with. However I wonder if you can modify or select a different mode for the icons where 80% of each one isn't indistinguishable from another and rather fuzzy and drab? It seems to me that color recognition assisting text differences would make it more intuitive and faster to find a selection (I HATE searching LOL) but then again some people have high sensitivity to location and order possibly more exclusive than color.
Whatever the case it is obvious that you have an eye for detail and seem willing to put in the work so it's just an idea for a little tweaking, even shades of grey (no innuendo intended).
Not much changes on the 686 slackbox. Light and minimal with fluxbox (check out the pstree).
Is your PC currently on LifeSupport? LOL. Not that I'm the minimalist fanatic that I used to be but how in blazes can you get anything done with only 13 parent processes. If I get below 20 my system is nearly useless... well, for being in X in the first place. Actually, just checked and I currently have 22 processes in Runlevel 3. WTF?
Heehee - Very low end! Atom N270, 1GB RAM and Intel graphics to a 1200x600 display. Hence the desire for a lightweight environment. For my modest needs on my daily commute it is, and has been, a marvelous unit.
