Shifting Gears – Fluxbox

I made a quick fluxbox theme last night to go with thayer’s colors. Since I seldom use gui apps, except for firefox, my theming ideas are always inspired by the terminal colors. And since I am very much used to fluxbox, throwing a theme together quickly is not so difficult. I haven’t released this theme yet, and I haven’t even named it. But if there are some requests, I will certainly make this theme available. But please note, this theme is meant to be based on the Xdefaults, and not on the gtk theme for instance. Here is a screenshot of the theme in action on my Lunar Linux powered office desk. Feel free to post your critique. Click on the image for full view.

    This is very nice setup, colors are going very well together.
    Can I kindly ask for the fluxbox theme? I like it.
    Thank you very much.
    BTW why did you decide use Lunar Linux?

      I just uploaded the theme over at box-look mate. Will post the link in a new post here as well. Anyway, as far as Lunar Linux goes, I fee more comfy with source based distros and I am not a fan of Gentoo, though I used it a lot a few years back. So I started using Lunar, and it is my favorite Linux distro.

    Yes, please upload this theme(and wallpaper!). You’ve been making some of the most amazing fluxbox themes in a while. I been still using your modified Pilsner fluxbox theme + wall. Very much liking the minimal look especially the borders, excellent job. By the way, great post about colorwrapper I been looking for just that. Keep up the good work. :)

      Thanks witz. I have uploaded the theme over at box-look. Will link it right here as well. Colorwrapper is one nifty tool. Glad that you found my posts useful. And thanks again for the visit mate.
