Felt like putting back pwidgets on my desktop again and immidietly had to make a new clockskin

Another try of mine to make a darkish clock, plus I attach .xcf file, consider it a "source"

you can easily make your own clockskin if you have any GIMP knowledge by tweaking colors/ modifying layers etc... Just change mode to rgb first. I did a quick green variant instead grayscale one, here are the skins:

XCF: black-smooth.png.xcf.gz

Looking for the "Greyscale" theme for pwidgets that I believe debuted in Deep Thought. Anyone know where I can get it?

Thanks in advance!

If you have Pwidgets installed, and the Puppyname looks lame, here is something I did after checking /tmp/xerrs.log.

Open /usr/local/pwidgets/widgets/scripts.
Copy "Puppylinux" to "PuppyName".

I did this in lucid 520 and instead of it showing "520" when I would select the Puppylinux widget, it now shows "Lucid Puppy 5.2.0".
So evidently the Pwidgets script is looking for "PuppyName" and that file does not exist.
By doing the fix I suggested, it now finds the script it is looking for and all works.

If this has been brought up before, I apologize for the interruption.

Well, I answered my own question, and just created a couple of theme files that are close to the original greyscale theme. Just copy to text, and save in a folder with the filename "main" in usr/local/pwidgets/widgets/themes/yournameoftheme. I just call these Greyscale, and Grey 2 respectively.

Code: Select all

#COLORS --- 0:headings 1:base-info 2:extra-info 3:markers 5:green 6:red
color0 333333
color1 FFFFFF
color2 EBEBEB
color3 222222
color5 FCFCFC
color6 C8C8C8

#CLOCK HANDS COLORS
color-hour=0/0/0/255
color-minute=0/0/0/255

For the Greyscale theme. and

Code: Select all

#COLORS --- 0:headings 1:base-info 2:extra-info 3:markers 5:green 6:red
color0 F2F2F2
color1 F0F0F0
color2 EBEBEB
color3 222222
color5 FCFCFC
color6 C8C8C8

#CLOCK HANDS COLORS
color-hour=0/0/0/255
color-minute=0/0/0/255

for the Grey2 theme. They are quite similar, the latter just has white lettering for some widgets. I wish I could contribute more, but I'm not a developer unfortunately...
