Time is up to participate in our competition of the month. It was really very difficult to decide because they have sent us excellent screenshots of their desktops.
However, after a long time, I was finally able to choose which ones are for me top 10 desks. There is a very interesting variety of distros, environments, icons, etc. To learn, imitate and enjoy! Will yours be on the list? |

It would be great if you also explain each one how you made your OS look like this
Can someone leave a tutorial for us newbies?
BSoD… -_-
You long for the times when you worked on something very important and the blue screen appeared ...
Conky configurations, I would appreciate a post of a whole conky configuration. As I understand it, it works with any desktop, right?
Yes, although I am not an expert on the subject, the use of the conky is not really difficult, you just have to play with the script a bit and leave it to your liking
I got the icons from Gnome-Look 🙂
I will never stay in the top 10 🙁
Why not? Is it ever going to happen ... Cheer up!
Cheers! Paul.
Excellent all the alternatives, I think they should include a manual to leave our desk looking the same.
Voyager is XFCE (Xuuntu) ^^
I can't believe it was featured in number two, it's the first time I've participated. hehehe. Greetings to all.
Congratulations!
Very good all, but I would like to highlight how we have 2 Chakras on the podium, yes sir !!!
I would love to be able to cheat my Chakra with a Conky like the ones shown ...
That's right ... this was chackra month.
I do not stay why? and of the winners I liked the number 8 well congratulations to those who won I will prepare for the next one
It will be the next! 🙂
Oleee! 😀 First time I participate and finish the 5th ^^ A pleasure to have contributed 🙂
Congratulations!
If you look at the conky in the Kernel part it says: fc18 = Fedora 18
you're right it's fedora 18, what a good observer you are. Cheers
What distro number 2 is it? The minimalist style looks great
: Or a large part uses KDE
P / D: This page is really inspiring !!!
I really like the 4th and 9th
Wow, really difficult! I'm glad mine is in the ranking. Many desktops are totally pretty and deadly. Long live linux ...
How do I do it if I want to enter next month's contest?
How did you customize eLuna like this? oO
Someone pass it to me 🙂
It is not that complex, you just have to know a little about your environment, see what would make it look good, now if the limit is your imagination, since you know that it is more or less what you want, look for alternatives, for example to dock style mac many use docky or awn, which are quite customizable for this conky meters, search for info in google, or in deviantArt there are many too, for that you have two options, one is to download the files and just put it to work as you see it in sample images, or two you can make your own scripts, which despite what it seems is not so complex, you just have to spend a while moving to a script and you will take pleasure.
I leave you some links, some are in English.

I hope they serve you, greetings.
You have to replace plank with Cairo Dock http://ubunlog.com/elementary-os-cambiar-plank-por-cairo-dock/, You install ubuntu tweak and the themes from the downloads of: http://www.noobslab.com/2011/11/themes-collection-for-ubuntu-1110-unity.html Icons and themes, you have a lot of variety to choose from!
How do I do if I want a desk like this?

just the theme, the icons, the wallpaper, the dock and the conky
