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
