At request of vastone, working on an openbox theme for VSIDO 2 -

Some minor changes to VSIDO aesthetics -
1. Added a clock to the top lxpanel, and this panel is no longer treated as a dock with reserved space to maximize vertical screen real estate.
2. Cleaned up the conky_ob_rc file - removed some double entries and balanced out the linear spacing with ${offset xx}; no changes to colour or system variables.
3. Using a comptonobx.conf - adds some shadows, fade effects, conky window and lxpanel are now excluded from compton effects.
Many additions to rc.xml file to provide window movement and resizing; key binding control to launch VSIDO apps.
thoughts -
Wow, best OB I've seen! Nice job!
Perfection IMO.... though I can be easily led when it comes to OpenBox. I would like to hear from those who do use OB and get their input
Thanks so much PackRat
muchas gracias. amigos
but this is linux after all so I tweaked it - changed the title bars to "raised splitvertical gradient" to bring it in line with the default SlicknessS gtk theme, standardized some 0bx font sizes -

Looking very good PackRat.
@PackRat
When you finalize it all, send it to me and it becomes VSIDO lore...
I appreciate this! ;D
@PackRat...
I do not want to pressure you :P ... but can you get the OB stuff to me today? After my tournament and later tonight I will be building new ISO's due to the release of kernel 3.11-1 to the SID repos and I want to include the new OB setup within it
Thanks!
Yes - they are done; two additional themes inspired by some extant raptors -
Peregrine - a bluish-gray openbox theme:

A dark with blue openbox theme to match the dorian gtk3 stock theme; bit of a hack because I don't mess with openbox too much. There is already a dorian openbox theme included with the gtk3 theme, but the color changes are in the windecs, not the title bars. This theme is more traditional change of titlebars:
