Enlightenment Desktop certainly has a lot of promise.
May be boring to some but it's perfect for me.

Your friendly neighborhood kitty.
Beautiful desktop, stay safe @4box
Thanks. We're close but not that close. It was towns about 30km from us that had to evacuate.

So this is a thing... the Elive Retrowave/Synthwave Edition!
I tried setting up Enlightenment in Zorin Lite live with persistence but it borked after the first few set-up steps (language, keyboard etc).
So for the hell of it, I decided to download Elive and found the website offering this strange beast! Being a product of the 80s myself, I couldn't resist.
Plenty of apps as well as eye candy (e.g. minimizing an app makes it spin away to a thumbnail on the desktop ), and it runs super fast and light.
And it makes me want to put on a pastel-coloured jacket with enormous shoulder pads over a T-shirt, hop into a Ferrari. (Not that I ever did that kind of thing for real in the 80s... except for the shoulder pads.)
As well as having the look of the 80s, it's got the window manager of the 90s, as it uses E16. (Although it turns out that even though E16 first came out in 1997 and Enlightenment is up version 25 now, the E16 branch of Enlightenment received its latest update in Nov 2022.)
Here are a couple videos (by others, not me) on this edition.
Trying a new look for Storm's Magma Orange icons ..... did some theme searching on my computer under my saved themes and found Aravisian's copperdeck 3 .... seems to be a good match and I also added Oxygen O2 Vibrant Orange for my Mouse Pointer .... kept the same background for now .....
I also changed the Window Borders from copperdeck 3 to silverdeck ...... another of Aravisian's themes because with the extra orange borders it was a little to much for me ..... but that is a personal choice .....
Point of Clarity:
CopperDeck theme was originally created by TreeTog - Copperdeck III is a remake I made for gtk3.
And I agree... the Silverdeck helps dilute some of the vibrancy. Sometimes, less is more.
Thanks for the correction to your name not sure just what happened I used the click and paste from the first one but something got screwed up ..... sorry and thanks again for the correction .....
LOL yeah... I am not Aravisiana...
This is for you @Frog as you're crazy with green colors. You could be called Crazy Frog! (Don't look it up on youtube :P)
Magma - Lime version coming soon.
Love the color contrast, very clean.
Green magma? I love it.
Actually when I saw the screenshot the first thing to come to mind was the movie "A Bug's Life". Maybe some inspiration for a future theme?
