Considering using my Star Wars font for Conky headers

Some nice screens there, and I like that 043 icon set.

Is there such a thing as a "real objects" icon set?
It seems to me the choice is between an "illustrated" style, as in ubuntu gnome or Mist styles, or a "logo" style like 043 above, ubuntu HighContrastInverse, etc.
I'd quite like a set that are photos of real objects - eg a "system tools" icon could be a picture of a real sprocket.  Even in small size, I think it would look qualitatively different to the usual sets.

illumin8 - I like the barcode in your conky config - is it a grphic, or by a barcode font of some kind?

I always thought Ed Tufte's sparklines would be a good fit for conky; sparklines are single-line graphs designed to be used in-line with text -  the conky cpu_graph, diskio_graph could be described as sparklines, but the idea is you could have all kinds of different graphs, tailored to showing fdifferent data - eg a daiily chart of a share price, football team match results, etc - google turns up some interesting ideas.

I was reading through the wiki entry.

You are on to something there...
Ive had a couple of my non-linux friends show some strong interest just because of Conky
I dont think the surface of its appllication possibilities are even being scratched.

I'm going to grab the conky code and have a sniff around.  Conky seems to be great in being quick to put something together and fairly lightweight, etc, and it's surprising how much you can get out of it despite the rough and ready display "language".  I'm sure more structure/modularity in the display functionaility could open it up to more uses though.

LOL, very #!, but also a very good idea, they'd probably be much easier to decipher at small size.

I think this would make a good wallpaper :

Some work required on the colours, etc, and it's not high res, although scaling up gives a nice grainy texture.  I love the way the focus is on "made in england"

Thanks again!

I like it, looks clean and free from clutter (except the bottom panel).

Oh I love that! Sometimes a light, airy theme is what you need!
