    Don't get too excited!
    WM: fvwm 2.6.2, custom theme and config
    DE: none
    Xfce Terminal 0.4.8
    GKrellM 2.3.5

    The distro is gentoo but that doesn't make any visible difference -- it looks exactly the same when I use Fedora or Debian. The art is Gusti Boucher (background) and Vlad Studio (in the terminal).

    I wanted to have a little xsnow going but it's not installed on my laptop currently. Actually it's probably not on my desktop either, lol.

    Notice there's <400mb of mem used with 9 desktops, FF10, gvim, gimp, slypheed, midnight commander x2, and a few terminals and little things runnning.

    C programming resources:
    GNU C Function and Macro Index -- glibc reference manual
    The C Book -- nice online learner guide
    Current ISO draft standard
    CCAN -- new CPAN like open source library repository
    3 (different) GNU debugger tutorials: #1 -- #2 -- #3
    cpwiki -- our wiki on sourceforge

    You call it customized just because you added a fancy background?! I can do that too!

    That's pretty. Is that Zelda Skyward Sword fan art?

    No, I call it customized because it is lol I started off with just a tty login and built up the desktop. I chose and built my own WM, login screen, background, and installed cairo-dock. Arch doesn't automatically come with a UI like ubuntu. Everything must be built by the user.

    Not as cool as MK's but I think it's pretty cool looking!

    I'd post mine, but it is extremely "minimalist". It is just the background image until you hit a key or click the mouse.

    @whiteflags: Do you know the artist for that? It is gorgeous. I'd like to see more.

    I guess not, but the cleaner the interface, the better for me. Must be something to do with age!

    Yes I do. More of the artist's things can be found here. He also has a page on pixiv, but pixiv is a walled garden anyway.

    Here's mine.
    Not too much customized on the surface, though...as the standard KDE 4.8.3 interface works very well for me.
