Thank you all for participating!
Would you like to show your desktop on the blog?
Requirements: GNU / Linux Operating System Send a detail of what is seen in the capture, desktop environment, theme, icons, desktop background, etc. (If you have a blog send the address to put it) Send me your captures to ubunblog [at] gmail.com , and the first monday of every month I will publish an entry with the desks that are arriving
beautiful my girlfriend kennie's desk, I love you baby.
definitely the most beautiful desks are Rastery's and mine 😳
Very good all, I am very pleased to see an XFCE environment between so much Gnome. And do not forget DWM and Awesome that together with XCFE gave more variety in terms of desktop environments. Congratulations to all, the catches were very good. I no longer sent mine because I could not decide to give some final touches to Openbox or XFCE, and in the meantime I arrived on Saturday. For the next day my capture is ready.
If it continues to grow like this, you will have to open a blog just for this section.
As for the desks, there is a clear trend towards minimalism, some few opt for the monstrosity XD the multiple desklets and menus, there are even fewer who opt for the old and beloved moderation. Must be childhood traumas, limited, for W $.
Health.
Thank you nenelinux, your background caught my attention and I loved the theme you use.
Congratulations to all, for all kinds of taste.
Well, much better now that you can see the desktops in high definition, I think it adds a lot to the section.
And it is true, every time there are more tendencies towards minimalism, but it is if you spend many hours a day in front of the pc the least you need a relaxing desktop.
As for the desks, the ones I liked the most are:
-Mine obviously: P, although I still want to make some adjustments since there are little things that do not close me.
-The one with very good rastery, what I didn't like was your apple style for the windows, nothing else.
-Maria's with XFCE, I just love it.
-Finally, the one from infection_s0n I quite like because it combines everything.
On the other hand, the best backgrounds are those with landscapes or things like that. The abstracts are very beautiful at first glance, but after 5 hours of having them they become too monotonous, in landscapes you can always look at the horizon, you can even forget that you are on a pc.
Greetings to all who sent their desktops, and say NO to overloading with panels and widgets in it 🙂
My favorite has been Diego's. Although I dislike GNOME (and Ubuntu not to mention it), but I liked it just for not having a useless dock and because SimpleDesktops is simply cool!
Thank you all for your comments and participation, the section is already a classic on the blog for your invaluable contribution.
@Ramon this month you have not complained about the resolution of the captures so I imagine that everything has been in order, right? 😉
Greetings to all
hahahaha I preferred not to comment on that point.
The maximum resolution that you have put in Flickr is not the real one, but go ahead, don't worry.
By the way, rare changes that these Flickr have made to its interface. Yesterday was still the same.
It is true, it is not the real one, but it is not something that I have changed on flickr, do you know if that can be changed? I was looking and I did not find anything ...
