Congratulations, dmillerct, Winner of December’s CotM Competition!
Happy New Year, all!
I can finally announce that the winner of December 2009's Conky of the Month competition is...
(Drum roll, please!)
...dmillerct!
dmillerct won points for his simple and effective configuration, for using the Conky Rings to create colourful pie charts, and for excellent adherence to the "Winter Holidays" theme! Honourable mention goes to arzali, who only just missed out on the top spot.
The winning conky file is located here; the .zip file contains his .conkyrc, rings.lua file and a screenshot for your reference.
A short bio about the author: "I am a 31 year old IT professional. I was born in the US but I hold dual citizenship with the other being of Croatia. I go back there often as possible and plan to retire there. I currently live in southern Connecticut. I am not married but might as well be, I have an incredible girlfriend of 6 years and two cats (one of them is quite fat, like 15kilos fat). My hobbies include Conky and racing sailboats in long island sound. I also like farming, gardening and drinking copious amounts of alcohol with my mates."
He also notes: "I am running this on an EeePC so my resolution is only 1024x600."
Congratulations, dmillerct, and for the rest of you: don't forget to enter January's CotM Competition, Calendars!
The Lines are Now Closed!
Well, that's it! The closing date has passed for the very first Conky of the Month competition!
Thanks to everyone who entered, and the winner will be announced shortly.
In the meantime, I am pleased to announce the theme for next month's competition: CALENDARS! As it's a new year, I'd like to see everyone's take on a Conky calendar. (Thanks to Bruce, editor at Conky Hardcore!, for the suggestion.) The closing date, again, will be the 15th of January. Selection criteria are as in the original CotM post.
Get Conkying!
