Due to the fact that the wife is dragging me to her sister's this weekend for some bad food and in-law entertainment, I decided to mess with her a bit:

Not really sure what we were meant to be seeing there.


If you really want to mess with her, take a screen image of the desktop with all the desktop icons on it, remove the desktop icons and then set the image you took as the background. Sit back and wait for the "Arrrgh! none of my programs will start!"




P.S. Having switched to i3 recently, I no longer have any "desktop" as such to pimp

the perfect example of transparency coming in handy.

i fullscreen'd the visualizer, and transparencized the xchat, and BOOM i can enjoy both at the same time

Here's mine.

Theme is sort of custom made, I took a bunch of XFCE themes and molded them together into what I thought looked best.

Wallpaper is one of the stock XFCE ones, just with that rat thing GIMP'd out of it.

I'm kinda sad my /etc/slackware-version still says 13.1. D:

well, I hope when 13.37 is actually released, that'll change. \o/
