#GuidesByVS

NEW TAG: #GuidesByVS.

This is mainly for peeps to find guides I'll be making/have made so it can reach more people...hopefully. No idea how this will go, but hey, why not try something new?

DISCLAIMER: All credit for anything I've learned going into this will be mentioned/attributed towards their rightful owners in the guides I'm writing. I am not claiming anything as inherently mine, just named this tag as such to make it short and simple.

5. Download this theme: store.kde.org/p/1288327, extract it, and take the panel.xpm file from wherever you saved it: Nano-Blu-Xfce/panel/panel.xpm, and set it as the top panel's background. For the lower one, I cropped and flipped it via online image editor.

The rest, like icon layout, separators, and other utilities you choose to put on your taskbar, is up to you. Good luck!

Also HOLY HECK did not expect this to max the character limit.

XFCE look guide:

1. Extract and copy this theme into /home/USER/.themes/:
gnome-look.org/p/1173113 {green.tar.gz}

2. Extract and copy these icons to /home/USER/.icons:
store.kde.org/p/1333807 [AD-Kiwi-Suru_1.7.1.zip]

3. If it doesn't exist already, create a file in /home/USER/.config/gtk-3.0/ named 'gtk.css' and paste the following into it:
#launcher-arrow { color: #00cb66; }

This will ensure that if you put multiple apps in one launcher that the arrow will turn into a matching color, so long as you set 'Arrow button position: Inside Button' in Advanced.

4. Create two panels, one for the top and bottom. Set the row size for the top panel as 24 pixels. Lock the panel, tick 'Automatically hide the panel: Never' & 'Reserve space on screen edges for the panel', 'Length (pixels): 1600', tick 'automatically increase the length', make opacity Entering and Leaving 100 and tick Dark Mode, tick 'adjust size automatically', AND FINALLY...

Am I the oddball for still using XFCE and LXDM on Void?

#xfce #desktop #gui #layout #voidlinux #linux #epicmickey #GuidesByVS

A graphical user interface or GUI/desktop layout with binary green icons on the bottom left-hand corner and stock icons neatly separated on the right-hand corner with a logout button on the top-right corner and a workspace switching button on the top-left. The background is a standoff/fight between Mickey, holding a paintbrush while ink drips off of them and a giant blob monster with big claws, named The Blot, while the world crumbles around them, wailing spirits drifting beyond in a giant storm, tearing buildings and patches of land out of the ground as thunder strikes a giant castle behind the Blot. This scene is the concept art for a Wii game by the name of Epic Mickey. 

I wish I could shorten and type out the plot and story without reaching the character limit, but I am not too good at summarizing/paraphrasing yet.
