new look

New look. Scan of a picture taken by a film camera, then generated the color scheme with pywal. Budgie is great, despite what recent headlines might lead you to believe 🙂. Just replaced Nautilus with Caja.

DE: Budgie 10.6.4
Theme: Plata-Noir
Icons: Papirus
I've been using solus for 2 years and I don't miss Windows like I thought I would, 😄

    alec685 I see this as the intended Solus Classic (circa 2018) look: crisp, elegant, simple, dark. Nice.

    when I took my leap of faith and cut the cord I kept it around but I didn't miss it.

        *I have to rewrite parts of .conf code to get day 12hr time, seconds, year. I have to teach myself clock.
        *Mate desktop panel is, let's say, unworkable---I ripped panel out of Mate (hid).
        *Super key for app menu and turned the rest over to Plank.

        unclemez "super okay" sounds a bit sarcastic almost ^^
        (P.S. I've taken the liberty of changing the image link in your post to a ![](image-link) format so it looks nicer)

          @1371#58298 really wish I could get the red Papirus icons like this again. I have no idea where I got it

            Staudey YES that was it, I recall using one of the papirus-folders scripts to get it working on Solus, thanks a million
            I also notice I was using a red variant of plata in that photo, completely forgot about that.
            If Budgie had some sort of accent color option, these colored folders would be a perfect fit IMO

              brent i actually added bibata cursor and it is eye candy and really changing

                So my laptop became unbootable. Boot rescue didn't work and I was feeling really bummed. But, it gave me a chance to reinstall and spend a day playing with the visuals for my system.

                  Brucehankins never saw the Tela's before. Way cool. I used to dread fresh installs, now I look forward to them! Nice bruce
