Just installed elementary-os. Suggest customization? |
|
So I have been using ubuntu for a past couple of weeks but recently decided to switch to elementary-os since I came to know that it is one of the most simple and beautiful distros.
So I'm looking forward to customize it and give it a nice appeal and look. Suggest me themes/icon-packs/cool stuff. Thanks 🤝 
Check out https://numixproject.org/ for some cool icons

I do not know what DE ElementaryOS uses but if it has a DE using gtk you should be able to find some nice themes around the place. I've always found customizing desktop environments disappointing though. 
That's one of they reasons I was dissapointed in EOS. There's just not many themes that work for it out there. The only one I've encountered was arc.

The only one I've encountered was arc. Nice theme. I like it. Thanks :D I heard EOS was good just because of its light weight and simplicity. Arc is difficult to use I guess. Its fully command-line.🤨 (Jul 26, 2015 11:16 AM)irrationalByte Wrote: Nice theme. I like it. Thanks :D Not really, man. Install elementary tweek and you can select the theme from there.

Just install all the dependencies that they mention. sudo apt-get install autoconf automake libgtk-3-dev git git clone https://github.com/horst3180/arc-theme --depth 1 && cd arc-theme ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr sudo make install It should work after that. In arch, you can get it from the AUR. |
