nice!
btw,
What system(desktop) are you using? Do you mind sharing these theme files? I'm quite interested in your dock theme(if it's a dock... a Cairo Dock?)
thx a lot.

Thanks man!
I'm using Gnome 2x as the Desktop Environment. I'll share the theme when it's complete, it needs some kinks ironed out 
The dock is AWN (Avant Window Navigator) with a transparent background and the dock icons i'm using are called 'Push' from Neodesktop [link]

you're welcome.
another noob question if you don't mind:
if you're using awn with a transparent background, then the background image below the dock is actually part of the wallpaper, am i right?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Don't worry, you can ask anything and everything
Yes, the image below the dock is part of the wallpaper itself. AWN does have the option to 'expand' the dock background to fill the entire bottom part just like the image is currently doing, but it's just my own preference that I integrate it onto the wallpaper itself

confused ( file browser ) : you have two widgets where you can select the view,
you seem to have somekinda coverflow imitation active, yet both those widgets
show you have "icon" view active...... makes no sense. Looks cool tho! Window
widgets?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
The other widget is a superflous extra, just something I was experimenting on. If you look below the CoverFlow, in the window, you'll notice the items are indeed in 'icon view'.. makes perfect sense
The CoverFlow is within an embedded window of it's own.

Oh, right! "I didn't know"... what still
don't make any sense is the obvious coverflow
button there.... if you activate that,
do u then get 2 coverflows instead of a view+
coverflow? Are gnome developers really this dumb?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
That CoverFlow button is currently active, it's just unfinished (the button that shows the 'active' state) You wouldn't get 2 CoverFlows, that's the height of stupidity.

Ic, doesn't look active tho.... well, however,
it's not my problem anyways 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It's unfinished as I told you, by default there's no 'CoverFlow' button because this is a patched Nautilus
I've yet to create some buttons.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh Ic... so you've written that thing on
the toolbar yourself.... that explains it
Good luck with it! I'm sure it will be more
sane in the next screen.

Haha thanks, hopefully its going to be better, I'm not much of a coder
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
what are you writing in then? vala?
...from what I've hear the gnome apps
are nowadays written in that weird language. :-S
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes, I have some familarity with C# (was a subject in my college semester
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh ic... C# is windows only right? I didn't
know vala had any resemblance to C#.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
C# is windows only, Vala is similar syntax wise... so if one is familiar with C# then the learning curve is less steep.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah... it's weird, it has some built-in compiler
of some sort that generates C code via the
GObject system somehow.... Well, I hope you
enjoy coding in it
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thanks.. and yepp, it's binary compatible with C too
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
well as that's actually what it produces so sure

cool setup man, still looks amazing ..
May I ask one thing, how do you get the dolphin can display cover flow?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thanks man
This is Nautilus Elementary though, not Dolphin and it can display CoverFlow (Clutter) with a few simple tweaks.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
your'e welcome my friend.
it's just too bad. because Nautilus Elementary can't installed on ubuntu 12.10...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah
That's what I call change for the sake of change. There's no reason really as to why it can't be installed, just that the powers to be decided you wouldn't be needing a patched Nautilus anymore. This is just one example, there are tons of others...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Indeed, I just hope there's a way somehow. I'll be installing 12.10 soon, then I'll take a look
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
well...for now I can't find a way to installed it on 12.10. Hope you can find it...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
They must've not updated it for 12.10.... if you're comfortable, you can even compile from source
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I am trying to compile it from source, but I found some error messages when compiling. It seems there are some packages have to be installed, and I hope I don't crashed my computer
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, there may be some dependencies you need to install. Install it via Synaptic so that you'll get to see if there are any clashes or whether it breaks anything.

nice, I'm sorry I do not really understand, but you have this theme GTK?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah I'm modding one theme to look like this.
