[deleted] Do you know if the transparency works fine with Qogir theme?

I have not tried it with transparency. It is available in the repos if you want to give it a try.

Just a few changes (Gnome). Switched to Dash to Panel. Switched WM Theme to ZorinGrey-Dark. I found the Zorin Themes look a lot more refined on my 4k display.

I'm just a little curious (and envious) about how you can post full-frame images to the forum. The couple of times I've tried that, it always fails with a javascript error. How do you and others here manage to do it?

    WetGeek I usually upload it to imgur (or some other service; to save bandwidth and disk space on the forum server), then copy the image link and embed it in my post with
    ![](link-to-image)

      Thanks, I should have thought of that. I've used Microsoft One Drive for that brfore.

      I get the screenshot ("png"), reduce to 50% (that is, 1920x1080 > 960x540), then save as "jpg" to cut file size (png is wasteful, jpg more efficient). The end result is a file about 10-15% of the original size (that is, 150-175kb rather than 1.2mb). At that point, I copy it in. I resize, as noted, but simple conversion from png to jpg without resizing drops file size to about 30% of the original png screenshot, and allows it to load.

        not exactly - PNG is more optimal for images with a small colour palette, and JPEG is better for more complicated images e.g. photos. if your desktop wallpaper is just a solid colour or some kind of pixel art, and there are no drop shadows or whatever, then PNG might actually be smaller for some desktop screenshots! I guess it depends on a variety of factors, though.

        Got back into a tiling wm with bspwm, and then discovered pywal and went a little crazy. Art is by Henry Ossawa Tanner.

        sangheeta Hi! What is that vertical monitor in the left side of your screen? I'm new to Solus, and I don't feel comfortable without some system monitoring app on the screen. I also use Debian and Manjaro in other two laptops, and both run gkrellm on KDE. But I just can't find any gkrellm package for Solus. Can you help me with some advice, please?

          This was just some fun with conky, trying to mix a conky with a budgie panel.

          I did this styling last year, before I had Windows 11. Feels kind of similar in styling with the rounded corners! It's not exactly W11 nor like the Mac, but feels closer to Windows, because of Plasma defaults. I like it that way.
