MX-19 KDE Screenshot

[eselma]

Googling for 'MX19 KDE' I saw that there is still my screenshot for... MX-14! So we have to update this.
Here comes my recent screenshot for MX-19 KDE in a classic 'Mepis Style' (as usual on my computers).
The actual screen is 1920 x 1080, but this screenshot has been resized to 1280 x 800, so it becomes lighter.
Enjoy!

Nice!

You see, the legacy Mepis Style but with a grain of pepper: MX on its purest state.
The antiX Conky is one of the best, and very useful for me.

Nice to chat with you also, Jerry!

One of the DEs I've used recently and really enjoyed using is Crunchbang Plus Plus. I just love the simple greyscale elegance and minimal design. So, I decided yesterday to install MX-KDE to metal and see what I could come up with in terms of replicating the aesthetics of #!++ and the utilities of KDE. It's still very much a work in progress but in about 30-40 mins I got this far:

I'm not 100% happy with the choice of Conky but I'm not an advanced enough user to come up with my own. The shortcuts I copied and pasted from a Bunsenlabs .config file I found online and at the moment isn't accurate in regards to my actual shortcuts. The top panel is Tint2.

I'm a big fan of Krusader file manager, the Excalibur menu, Oxygen window decorations and the Waterleaf icons. I made the bottom Plasma panel autohide but here's the effect with everything visible:

There'll be a bit more tinkering to come but I'm very happy with the results thus far. And very happy with MX-KDE which allows me to actually run Conky on Plamsa

Very minimalist. Very utilitarian. I like it.

I used Crunchbang from version 9 to 11, and I used to love their minimalist overall look as well as their wallpapers.

I still have the crunchbang 9 WP collection, and some time ago I asked Auro to make an MX version of their "architectural drawing " WP.

Ha - nice. Thanks for sharing!

With thanks to Auro: that's his wallpaper and he introduced me to the Simple Menu plugin, which is reminiscent of Whisker menu, except Favourites (and all categories of apps) are displayed as icons instead of as program names.

Nice Conky. Is it from MX Linux or is it your own creation?
