Some random desktop eye candy for ya’ll. Got my system running XGL, the latest and greatest in Linux eye candy, allowing all sorts of funky effects. Tonight I found a nice icon set, background, and compiz theme which I thought I’d show off. Yes, for ironic content I used the Vista theme (though it does look good!).

Things to note would be the subtle glow around the windows, the subtle transparency in the titlebars, dropshadow on the panel, and sexy icons. Oh, and the unnaturally busy/visible state of my desktop in general 🙂 The image I have open is from the Dragon Boat festival in Harrison last week where I hung out with Dana for a bit.
In case anyone is wondering… inspiration, wallpaper, icon set (Gi?n), gcompiz theme is Vista-ish and the gtk theme is plain old clearlooks.
