MX Fluxbox Screenshots

Nice color combo's! You could consider changing color of the folders to green too, using the 'papirus-folder' script

Good advice!
Probably I'll try it in the final version. In beta I don't customize too much. I'm rather focused on testing it as it is and doing changes only to do testing more comfortable.
The main purpose of this one was rather having tint2 that matches the Fluxbox style (one of preinstalled styles in MXFB) and GTK theme (also one of the preinstalled in MX21) and having some launchers that are very usable for testing purposes. In MX19 i use "Obsidian mint" icon theme. I didn't import all of the icon sets or styles I use in MX19, because I know that this beta will be replaced with another installation after a couple of days or weeks.

I wanted to try my hand out with conky so I loaded up MX-MyConky but couldn't make heads or tails of how it was written. So I looked at MX-ManyRoads and liked what I saw (for the most part). It was fairly easy to re-configure following the various conky wiki pages I read. I didn't care for the date and time at the top (breaks the look of the rest of the conky) so I removed it. I changed out the user and uptime section (at the top) and replaced it with date and time instead. I also didn't care for running 5 instances of conky (all the files in the folder), so I created a new folder titled MX-ManyRoadsTwo and copied over the allcombined.lua file along with the fonts and img folders and created a new config file combining all the code from the other 5 files. Did some tweaking of colors and entries and am pleased with how it came out. Now to figure out how to add weather to it.

There are some good customizable ones, for me it's 80% a combination of MX-KoO, MX-ManyRoads, and single lines from others. And a lot of copy&paste, because there are hardly any concys with more than 8Cores in the display.

Gorgeous colors! Just wish the wolf would smile...

not a wolf, this is Sir Archibald vom Steinataler Rudel, my black German Shepherd. I have several of him as wallpapers, one of them was one of the first of me in User contributed wallpapers.

There are some good customizable ones, for me it's 80% a combination of MX-KoO, MX-ManyRoads, and single lines from others. And a lot of copy&paste, because there are hardly any concys with more than 8Cores in the display.

Nice. I was just looking at the code for MX-Koo and it's very clean (compared to some of the others). East to understand from a newbies POV. Just curious how you were able to get the up/down arrows to show in the Network section? This is what it looks like to me when I load it.

I assume this has something to do with the font used, because you have these typical bracket boxes when the OS doesn't know the font.
Unfortunately I don't know which one it was. Fontawsome? Conkysymbols or ConkyWind?
