I have been working on a couple new Fluxbox styles[1] for Debian and
hopefully be added the the Debian packaged version of Fluxbox and one
to maybe come the default style (if no style is chosen that the
'LibStick Light' be good choice) for a Debian release like squeeze, or
the next Debian release.

The 3 styles I have done are called:
* Debian_LibStick Light
* Debian_LibStick Dark High Contrast
* Debian_LibStick Dark

If anyone knows the author(s) of the said wallpaper images used in the
screen shots, could you please let me know so I can add credit to them
in the style source(s), As the images are included in the current
version of Fluxbox 1.1.1+dfsg2-1.

Dale

Hi,
good job!
thank you for your styles.
But they seems to be almost the same of the current default theme in squeeze,
aren't they?
Why don't work on it directly? its open :)

about the background, the author is Thomas Guillot <gtom[at]gtom[dot]eu>

If you had problems why don't fix it with the current theme?
create another themes don't fix it...
I'm the author of the debian_squeeze_dark and patch are welcome :)

I agree with that. (and for some old laptops also)

only the author of the dark Fluxbox background.


best regards

I still trying to fixer out what is causing the problem, ie like some
windows not fully open up till you move it around and the other is
graphics of a window left on the desktop after you used the maximized
button to reduce the size of the window app.  and the 3 machines I
have tested it on are very much identical apps wise, the 2 desktops
are the ones that have problems with the style, but my laptop it ok.
Hence why I have not been able to send you a patch yet.

It was your style that inspired me to create what I have.

I have to agree too, but I am currently using my 'LibStick Dark High
Contrast' on my laptop at the moment.

Thanks for clarifying the background info

Hi,

I have done some minor fixes to the LibStick styles[1]:

    * Added credit to the style sources of the wallpaper(s) author and
above in the wallpaper section.
    * Changed the wallpaper image for the 'Debian LibStick Light Style'.
    * Credited Denis Briand for the inspiration of the 'Debian
LibStick Dark' styles.

Dale
