I just wanted to share a beautiful and colorful conky with all of you (I wasn't sure where to post it.)

He went through a bit of work on that obviously. Very nice use of colour and font.

I saw this earlier on Lifehacker. Really is one of the nicest conky setups I have ever seen.

That's wild how he blended the different conkys with the desktop image. Very creative.

Very nice work indeed, must be retired or unemployed to devote that much time! Seriously, a really unusual approach with a beautiful result.

cheers,

LOL! That's what I thought too."I wonder how long it took him to do it?"
Lifehacker has been showing really beautiful or unusual desktops for awhile now, and they show Win, Mac, and Linux. The first article they did on conky and what all of you posted here is what helped me to do my conky. If I had more time, I'd make mine that cool too, but I still have to find a block of time to convert my desktop to Mepis 8, so that won't happen for awhile.

If this is Conky, it's very well set too:
