fvwm Look and Feel, icons and themes

I am liking fvwm more and more. Rather I went ahead to get the themes and icons for fvwm and am quite happy with the amount of customization I can do with the WM. So, I found the themes page for the fvwm which gives about 27 themes and all of them look quite cool.

You can choose to have the gnome and the KDE menu in your fvwm menu which is built dynamically. Decide on when the window should become active and things like Animation, Auto Raise, Banner and the list continues and you dont have to search anything to do any of those. The <a href="http://fvwm-themes.sourceforge.net/doc/FAQ" target="_blank">FAQ is a good resource to start.

Generate web thumbnails page (gallery) for free with convert command on linux

Here&#8217;s something for guys who want to generate html file with thumbnails of photos. I know sometimes it really gets messy. So sometime back I had found a search on the net for the same and found a script written by Samuel Hocevar.  Sorry I do not seem to have the link to the page, but since the script is GPL and name of the author is there in the script, I can put it for download from my web-blog also. So here is the script <a href="http://amit-agarwal.co.in/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/genthumb.sh">genthumb
