Have I got some stuff to show you
>>52108803
They come default with gnome
>>52108803
I got mine on wallheaven.cc
>>52108803
I have been collecting tiles and wallpapers from areas all over the internet (both archive.org and current websites) over the span of the past five years. It's been an organic product that has taken time and energy.

Everyone posts at the same time when there's a new thread.

If you're going to learn horse riding, make sure you have good tack and don't spook the horse. Approach quietly and don't yell at it. Bribery works, get yourself some rock salt, an apple, or a carrot.

where did you get this wallpaper? it's godlike.
After reading the wiki, collecting as many faded wallpapers as possible, and acquiring dotfiles, I think I am ready to join your ranks and install arch.
...once I get home, at least
>>52110869
thanks
>>52110936
why does everyone like this wallpaper so much? it's mediocre at best
>>52110936
I've had it for a while. I like it, but I don't know why so many people are so hyped about it. I'm working on replacing it already.

>>52111227
Is it a diffrence of tastes between me and the rest of /g/ or almost every riced Linux out there has shitty fonts?

bitmap fonts are not shitty, anon
>>52111297
>ask bae out
you will never do it will you
>>52111286
What's your preferred font?
>>52111297
Sorry anon but the polka dot wallpaper makes me feel like I have measles.
>>52111334
How about stripes?
>>52110608
most interesting post ive seen in this threads. thanks for all that sauce.
how the fuck your desktops are so beautiful and when I try to install any distro I need to get back to windows because my eyes burn?
also, you guys use a vm for windows? or you don't use it at all?
>>52111274
not anon but
>>52111315
They have their uses but most of the time they do
Like >>52111166 for example, his fonts can look great but he chooses to use upscaled bitmaps instead
>>52111372
thanks !
>>52111351
I like it.
>>52111388
upscaled bitmaps do look shitty
Im back, dont worry guys!
>>52111363
Heavy customization.
>when I try to install any distro I need to get back to windows because my eyes burn?
Post your windows desktop. Let's see your idea of a desktop that doesn't burn the eyes.
>>52111315
I know bitmap fonts have their niche, but I wouldn't want to use them on a 1920x1080 desktop, for any purpose.
>>52111334
Pic related. Using Mactype with grayscale smoothing instead of RGB rainbow.
>>52111419
What font do you recommend then?
>>52111388
>>52111419
good to see you guys are back <3
here's a present just for you guys
>>52111196
>>52111250
>>52111286
Thanks friends, I can't find the wallpaper, but I have a screenshot of when I tiled it on my computer.
>>52111465
Bitmap fonts are reliable for being monospaced.
>>52111491
This looks so much better, I don't see why you don't use those fonts instead
I started using arch with bspwm the other day
What's the fastest way to create a nice colour scheme?
do I have to change each window/package individually?
>>52111527
personal preference. bitmap fonts (and any fonts) look really crisp on my screen since it's 3200x1800 @ 13.3in
>>52111504
Right, but it's not even a problem with my font sizes. I can do all my stupid experiments with Firefox's CSS and XUL in full comfort.
nothing fancy but its clean and i like it.
>>52111684
Too clean. Almost empty. Don't you want to fill the available space with some buttons?
>>52111684
I bet your music taste is STILL shit though
>>52111684
Font colors don't work with the background. Something just feels off.
>>52111452
I don't have my computer with me, but this is my usual xubuntu desktop, the pretiest I got was elementary os
>heavy customization
hmm, I'm n00b as hell with linux, that can explain it

>>52111799
Always Windows
>>52111991
Bblean for the bar but the rest is just windows with a nice visual style and icon set
I'm still working on some rice. Certain things are already broken, some I didn't get to break just yet. Anyways, I recently found some scripts for Stylish and I want to see what can be done with Firefox's UI. I always wanted to merge the url bar with the list of tabs, but it's bugged in full screen mode, so I'm working on a proper CSS that combines these bars and doesn't look like utter shit in full screen mode.
Already broke Firefox three times attempting to do that, hehe.
>>52112000
I like Foobar. The problem is that the "next playlist" and "prev playlist" hotkeys will not make it actually play the playlist you just switched to. So sad. Had to return to AIMP3.
