From the screenshots thread, now posted in the testing area:

classic-bakgrounds.tar.gz
jwmThemes.tar.gz

Read the info file before using.

Thanks to Lucky13 for creating and sharing the new JWM color schemes.

Many combinations of classic backgrounds and the new JWM color schemes go very well together.

Plan for this week:
VLC does work on DSL already, but I am trying to improve the mini-GTK2 extension by using a version of GTK+ that uses Cairo. More and more apps nowadays seem to require Cairo.
I would like to call it 'gtk2.unc', or anything simple.
Possibly follow up with a 'gnome-libs.unc' or similar to cover the patchwork of GNOME-originated libraries needed by some apps.

I'll submit the multimedia extensions (ffmpeg, mencoder/mplayer, VLC) once I finish the GTK2 extension.

@Robert: does the backgrounds extension include the Fractal Movement backroungd from ~ 2.1b? I always kind of liked that. Also like the Saturn rings image from dsl-n.

@stupid_idiot: thx for your work on both. May I suggest perhaps putting something in the name of the the mini gtk2 extension to remind people that it is 'mini' eg mini-gtk2.unc, or core-gtk2-libs or something.

- I'd never heard of Cairo before I had a go at compiling conky-2 (hence the svn extension), but I got bogged down with the Cairo dependencies on freetype and fontconfig and trying to use what is already in dsl.

I'd be interested to know if you get Cairo to work with freetype/fontconfig in dsl.
