Yep, there are still some things to work out, but I like this setup. Not my primary desktop though.  But I've seen people using Twm as primary WM.

Nothing elaborate. Still fairly new to Slackware, so the stock XFCE DE is doing nicely for now.

Reason: Changed menu button to a more visible shade.

I have uploaded an "almost" same Flux theme here: http://box-look.org/content/show.php...content=148545
The GTK theme is a little modified Ambiance Dark, changed the color , buttons, scroll, and made it more "glassy".

Yeah. It's my own customization. It is just panel on left with icon-tasks plasmoid.

Plasma theme = Caledonia
Icon theme = Kfaenza

For the logo, I have a few Slackware icons stored in ~/.icons. You'll need to right click on the menu button and then hit Properties to change it. In the dialog box that pops up after you've clicked on the icon to edit, select Image Files from the drop-down menu and navigate to your icon. I'll attach a couple with this post, but they're easy to find if you want different sizes.
For Conky, navigate to Settings and select Session and Startup > Application Autostart. Then just add Conky and anything else you want autostarted.
Important! If you want transparency to look right, you'll need to add this line in ~/.conkyrc:
own_window_argb_visual yes
If you switch between Openbox and XFCE, you'll need to comment that line out before logging into Openbox or else the letters in Conky will jumble together and start looking messed up.
I hope this was helpful and your XFCE desktop is even more enjoyable!
