From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Let's be honest, the rankings of gnome-look are weird at best and there is no good resource to gauge what icons / cursors / themes people like to use in their everyday DE.

So please share what icon-pack / cursor theme / GTK|QT theme you use, and why.

Yes, and I am not against paying for the work of others, of course. Though I do find the theme a bit too expensive and am out of funds right now. Perhaps in the future. Though I have tried many themes in the past and ended up not liking theme. Paying for a theme and then not liking/using it is a bit.. Hard to swallow..

But yes, it is a one time payment. Can you imagine if even themes start being subscription based? 5usd/month to use a fucking theme.. We are not that far off hahah

yeah, that i understand. am there too hence why I havent bought it yet, it's hard to justify a color palette when there are more pressing uses for your money. If and when I do buy the pro theme it would be more to support the creator than for the pro color scheme [a thank you for the long years of use], that way cant be upset if i dont like it :D

RIGHT! that would be insane, with [traditional] subscriptions I could stomach it if creators were getting paid instead of some corporate jackoff buying another yatch.
