Today I styled my notebook to look “pirate”. This is my tribute to the upcoming party convention of our local section of the German Pirate Party. I currently use Arch Linux with LXDE as desktop environment. The wallpaper is a merge of the Clarity wallpaper and the pirate flag of Jack Rackham. Since the wallpaper is GPL licensed and the Jolly Roger is Creative Commons licensed, I cannot offer the wallpaper for download, but it's quite easily reproduced: Just take GIMP, load the wallpaper, import the Jolly Roger into a new image, remove every bit of black (using the magic wand), copy the Jolly Roger onto a new layer above the wallpaper and set its layer mode to “overlay”. Together with slim, this image can also be used to create a nice login screen :-) !
