Alright guys I tweaked my desktop for days on end.

You may share how sublimely impressed you are.

Increased tiling capabilities for Fluxbox via PyTyle and with my extended vertical layout algorithm (simply inverted "HorizontalRows").

http://alexsson.hopto.me/wp-content/...creenshot1.png

You can try it out here: http://alexsson.hopto.me/owncloud/in...wares%2FPyTyle

pytylerc is a config-file read by PyTyle and is used for customization and you should put it in your ~/.config/pytyle/. It contains information such as the key bindings.

I really have high hopes for Enlightenment's tiling Desktop. I surely hope it's ready for prime time soon.

PS yes, JWJones, it is amazing that your desktop can look so utterly boring all the while realizing it is a T-Rex in sheep's clothing. Kinda reminds me of the fat little cute Bhudda baby miners in Galaxy Quest

Thumbs up That looks fantastic

I'm quite impressed with how that came out. I haven't used Fluxbox in a decade and now on mostly i3 and KDE (lazy mouse dragging days).
I might have to look in to this fluxbox/tiling...
Nice share

Installed Mate for the first time and in fairly short time got results which make great use of the limited screen space of the netbook and I think are very easy on the eyes. Thanks Pat, WillySR and gang!

I'm new to Slackware, and these are my first screenshots. (I'm loving it by the way. Thanks Pat and the rest of the developers!)

Congrats, montagdude, nice clean-looking functional desktop and I don't even have to qualify that with "for a new guy"

Thanks enorbet! I'm new to Slackware, but not Linux. I've been setting up KDE (and other) desktops for awhile.

Looks really nice. I like the theme you're using. Where did you get it from?
