I wanted to add some launcher icons, remove my clock panel and modify the tasks to look more like running tasks in other DE panels.  I wanted a bubble with the icon and text showing what’s going on in that application. Process is below the break.

First: Adding a launcher panel and removing the clock:

You need to let tint know what you want to show up and in what order you’d like to see them. You’ll use the “panel_items” entry for this.

# Panel
panel_monitor = all
panel_position = top left horizontal
panel_items = LTS
panel_size = 100% 32
panel_margin = 0 1
panel_padding = 3 3
panel_dock = 0
wm_menu = 1
panel_layer = bottom
panel_background_id = 1

L = launcher
T = tasks
S = systray
C = clock

So, I’ve told tint2 that I want to see launcher first, tasks second  and systray last, since I removed “c”. After designating the order, I need to populate the launcher list:

# Launcher
launcher_padding = 6
launcher_background_id = 5
launcher_icon_size = 20
launcher_icon_theme = Faenza-Dark-CrunchBang
launcher_item_app = /usr/share/applications/terminator.desktop
launcher_item_app = /usr/share/applications/exo-file-manager.desktop
launcher_item_app = /usr/share/applications/iceweasel.desktop
launcher_item_app = /usr/share/applications/geany.desktop

I placed my four most commonly used applications.  You can have as many or few as you’d like.

My clock is gone and I’ve got some application launcher icons.  Now I just need some more informative task icons for any running processes.

First, activate text for tasks, resize max width and set some new IDs for the tasks:

# Tasks
urgent_nb_of_blink = 20
task_icon = 1
task_text = 1
task_centered = 0
task_maximum_size = 150 20
task_padding = 0 0
task_background_id = 9
task_active_background_id = 10
task_urgent_background_id = 9
task_iconified_background_id = 9

I changed task_text to reflect 1,  modified task_maximum_size to 150 and defined two new ids (9 and 10) for the task_background entries.  Now I just needed to create those definitions.

In my IDs:

# ID 9 – task surround
rounded = 3
border_width = 1
background_color = #FF6501 30
border_color = #000000 30

# ID 10 – active task surround
rounded = 3
border_width = 1
background_color = #FF6501 100
border_color = #ffffff 30

For the inactive tasks, I set the color to an orange and set the transparency to 30.  For the active text, I just negated the transparency completely(1o0).

The last step required is to set the font colors for the tasks:

# Fonts
task_font = BankGothic Md BT 10
task_font_color = #000000 100
task_active_font_color = #0000ff 100
task_urgent_font_color = #ff0000 100
task_iconified_font_color = #696969 60
font_shadow = 0

I set active to blue with no transparency, inactive to black with no transparency, urgent to red with no transparency and minimized to a gray with a transparency of 60.

That resulted in this:

Here’s the full tint2 config:

#———————————————

# Background definitions

Subj: RE: Husaburg.com domain…

Hi there Lauren,

I can’t thank you enough for attempting to discreetly assist me in registering a premium, albeit misspelled domain.  I just couldn’t help but point out one small issue with your offer.

If I purchase this domain from you, I will pay $199.00.  If however, I simply visit GoDaddy… well, here.  I’ll let you see for yourself:

So, I can buy the domain from you or I can buy the domain for $11.99 elsewhere.  This is one of those times when maybe you didn’t fully think this plan through in it’s entirety.  Normally, to successfully run a domain hostage service, you have to actually be holding the domain hostage.  Simply misspelling domains and offering to buy them for people can’t possibly have that great or a return.

On the off chance, however, there are people stupid enough to fall for this, I can’t help but notice that you own the inbrokerage.com domain and would like to offer you a chance to purchase theresasmallchesspiecelodgedinmyrectum.com to help improve your SEO and solidify your branding.  Please contact me if you would like me to purchase this domain for you and then turn around and mark it up 3000% but be sure to hurry because I am also offering this domain to other businesses that also work within your area of expertise.

thanks,

Subj: HEAR ME OUT PLEASE (URGENT REPLY)

Apostolic Greetings

I am Sister mrs Angela Kadhy from Bahrain. I am married to Dr. Phillip Kadhy who worked with Bahrain embassy in cote d’ivoire for nine years before he died in the year 2007. We were married for eleven years without a child. He died after a brief illness that lasted for only four days. Before his death we were both born again Christians. Since his death I decided not to re-marry or get a child outside my matrimonial home which the Bible is against.

When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of (5.5 Million
U.S.Dollars) with A BANK in cote d’ ivoire. Presently, this money is still with the BANK. Recently, my Doctor told me that I would not last for the next three months due to cancer problem. Though what disturbs me most is my stroke, Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to church or better still a christian individual that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct here in. I want a church that will use this to fund churches, orphanages and widows propagating the word of God and to ensure that the house of God is maintained.

The Bible made us to understand that Blessed is the hand that giveth. I took this decision because I don’t have any child that will inherit this money and my husband relatives are not Christians and I don’t want my husband’s hard earned money to be misused by unbelievers.

I don’t want a situation where this money will be used in an ungodly manner. Hence the reason for taking this bold decision. I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am going. I know that I am going to be in the bossom of the Lord. Exodus 14 VS 14 says that the lord will fight my case and I shall hold my peace.

I don’t need any telephone communication in this regard because of my health and because of the presence of my husband’s relatives around me always. I don’t want them to know about this development. With God all things are possible. As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the BANK in ivory coast.

I will also issue you a letter of authority that will empower you as the original- beneficiary of this fund. I want you and the church to always pray for me because the lord is my shephard. My happiness is that I lived a life of a worthy Christian.

Who ever that wants to serve the Lord must serve him in spirit and truth.Please always be prayerful all through your life. any delay in your reply will give me a room in searching for a church or christian individual for this same purpose.

Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated here and i want you to fast and pray for God to take asbsolute controll of this fund untill it get to you.

Hoping to hear from you soon.

From Mrs Angela Kadhy

If anyone can overlook Sister Mrs., it’s me.
(P.S. Bonus points to me for the Weird Al lyric)

Monktastic greetings to you, Mrs. sister!

I feel as if the hand of God led your fingers as you wrote this email to me.  My name is Father Shamus Dandy, of the Holy Order of Pointy Hats.  I, along with my 11 wives, live and preach out of Apple Valley, Utah.  I am the pious guy the little the little Amalettes want to be like.  You can can trust that Gods work will be done through me with your funding.

I assure you that I will act according to your wishes.  I have also ordered my wives to stop eating for the duration of this transaction to ensure that God doesn’t get angry and light the money on fire while it’s in transit, as you seem worried might happen. I guess because your God is an angry God.

Please let me know what I need to do to begin Gods work with your money.

May the baby Jesus’ light shine upon you until you’re dead,

From: Christopher Catchpole <chriscatchpole191@yahoo.com.cn>
Subj: FROM  Christopher Catchpole

FROM  Christopher Catchpole
Email:

Good Day,
I am Mr.  Christopher Catchpole, I am contacting you concerning
a deceased customer and an investment he placed under our banks management
Seven years ago. I would respectfully request that you keep the contents of
this mail confidential and respect the integrity of the information you come by
as a result of this mail.I am contacting you independently of our investigation
and no one is informed of this communication. I would like to intimate you with
certain facts that I believe would be of interest to you. In the year 2002, the
subject matter; came to our bank to engage in business discussions with our
private banking division. He informed us that he had a financial portfolio of
Fifteen Million Dollars, which he wished to have us turn over (invest) on his
behalf.
I was the officer assigned to his case; I made numerous suggestions in line with
my duties as the de-facto chief operations officer of the private banking sector
then, especially given the volume of funds he wished to put into our bank. We
met on numerous occasions prior to any investments being placed. I encouraged
him to consider various growth funds with prime ratings. In mid 2004, he asked
that the money be liquidated because he needed to make an urgent investment
requiring cash payments in Helsinki- Finland. He directed that I liquidate the
funds and deposit it with a security firm. I informed him that my Bank would
have to make special arrangements to have this done and in order not to
circumvent due process. Cash movement across boarders has become especially
strict since the incidents of 9/11. I contacted my affiliate and made the funds
available to the security firm.

Due to the absolutely absurd length of his email, Click below to read the rest of the conversation:

I undertook all the processes and made sure I followed his precise instructions
to the letter and had the funds deposited with the security firm. The Security
Firm is a specialist private firm that accepts deposits from high net worth
individuals and blue chip corporations that handle valuable products or
undertake transactions that need immediate access to cash. This small and
highly private organization is familiar  especially to the highly placed and
well-connected organizations. In line with instructions, the money was
deposited with the security firm. The deceased told me he wanted the money
there in anticipation of his arrival from Norway later that week. This was the
last communication we had, this transpired around 25th of November 2004.In August
last year we got a call from the security firm informing us about the
inactivity of that particular portfolio. I made futile efforts to locate the
deceased. I immediately passed the task of locating him to the internal
investigations department of the Bank. Four days later, information
started to trickle in, apparently our client was dead. A person who suited his
description was declared dead of a heart attack in cannel, in Southern part of
France. We were soon enough to identify the body and cause of death was
confirmed.In his bio-data form, he listed no next of kin. In the field of private banking,
opening an account with us means no one will know of its existence, accounts are
rarely held under a name; depositors use numbers and codes to make the accounts
anonymous.

This investigation has for the past months been unfruitful; we’ve
used our private investigation affiliate companies to get to the root of the
problem. It is this investigation that resulted in my being furnished with your
details as a possible relative of the deceased. According to practice, The
Security Firm will by the end of this financial year broadcast a request for
statements of claim to Bank, failing to receive viable claims they
will most probably revert the deposit back to Bank. This will
result in the money entering the Bank accounting system and the
portfolio will be out of my hands and out of the private banking division. This
will not happen if I have my way. What I wish to relate to you will smack of
unethical practice but I want you to understand something. It is only an
outsider to the banking world who finds the internal politics of the banking
world aberrational. The world of private banking especially is fraught with
huge rewards for those that occupy certain offices and oversee certain
portfolios. You should have begun by now to put together the general direction
of what I propose. There is Fifteen Million Dollars deposited in a security firm, I
alone have the deposit details and they will release the deposit to no one
unless I instruct them to do so. I alone know of the existence of this deposit
for as far as my Bank is concerned.

My proposal: I now seek your permission to present you as a next of kin to the
deceased, as all documentations will be carefully worked to make you the
beneficiary to the funds US$15,000 000 00 (Fifteen Million Dollars); I am prepared
to place you in a position to instruct The security Firm to release the deposit
to you as the closest surviving relation. Upon receipt of the deposit, I am
prepared to share the money with you. That is: I will simply nominate you as
the next of kin and have them release the deposit to you. We share the proceeds
60/40.I would have gone ahead to ask that the funds be released to me, but that
would have drawn a straight line to me and my involvement in claiming the
deposit. We can fine-tune this based on our interactions am aware of the
consequences of this proposal. I ask that if you find no interest in this
project that you should discard this mail. I ask that you do not be vindictive
and destructive. If my offer is of no appeal to you, delete this message and
forget I ever contacted you.

Do not destroy my career because you do not approve of my proposal. I am not a
criminal and what I do, I do not find against good conscience, this may be hard
for you to understand, but the dynamics of my industry dictates that I make this
move. Such opportunities only come ones’ way once in a lifetime. I cannot let
this chance pass me by, for once I find myself in total control of my destiny.
These chances won’t pass me by. I ask that you do not destroy my chance, if
you will not work with me let me know and let me move on with my life but do
not destroy me. I am a family man and this is an opportunity to provide them
with new opportunities. There is a reward for this project and it is a task
well worth undertaking.

I have evaluated the risks and the only risk I have here is from you refusing to
work with me and alerting my bank. If you give me positive signals, I will
initiate this process towards a conclusion. I wish to inform you that should
you contact me via official channels; I will deny knowing you and about this
project. I repeat, I do not want you contacting me through my official phone
lines nor do I want you contacting me through my official email account.
Contact me only through the numbers I will provide for you and also through
this email address. I do not want any direct link between you and myself. My
official lines are not secured lines as they are periodically monitored to
assess our level of customer care in line with our Total Quality Management
policy. Please observe this instruction religiously.Please, again, note that I
am a family man, I have a wife and children. I send you this mail not without a
measure of fear as to what the consequences, but I know within me that nothing
ventured is nothing gained and that success and riches never come easy or on a
platter of gold. This is the one truth I have learned from my private banking
clients. Do not betray my confidence.

I await your response.

Mr. Christopher Catchpole

Holy fucking wall o’ text, Batman.

Hi there Mister Catchpole,

You have nothing to fear from me, as I am as much of a despicable and unscrupulous thief as you are.  Please let me know what I need to do to make a lot of money from this.  Be quick, as I’m entertaining offers from a USMC sergeant, a deposed prince and a family member of a dead airline pilot.

Mr. Swiger totally screwed me out of my consignment.  I allowed my mother to die and accidentally ran over a hooker all because of him.

Now I really need that money as they want $5,000.00 just to bury my mom.  I’ve been holding off on the burial in case Donald got back in touch with me, but to be completely frank, she’s beginning to stink.  It’s not pleasant being in the same house with her.

Go ahead and shoot me the money, if you would. My super-secure PIN is 77223.

From: Schwim Dandy
Subj: RE: WELCOME TO SANTANDER BANK

Hello Mr. Savage,

I want to thank you so much for providing me to the following information.  Logging in and seeing all those zeros made my mother’s death totally worth it.

I really feel safe just knowing that the money is being held at your bank so if it’s ok with you, I was just planning on leaving it there in the event of a rainy day and I need to buy a learjet or major league baseball field.  I’m sure being a really big bank with official login pages and all, you won’t mind me just keeping the money with you.  After all, That’s how you make your money, right?  From the interest?

Thanks so much for everything you’ve done.  It does my heart good to know that there are fine people such as yourself helping others, one new millionaire at a time.

It seems the Kieran feels that he hasn’t gotten the accolades due him. It seems at first that he’s so angry he forgets to draft an email.

Subj: RE: WELCOME TO SANTANDER BANK

Hi there Kieran,

You either sent me a blank email or one written in invisible ink.  I’ve smeared lemon juice across the monitor but it didn’t reveal anything, so I’m thinking it was a blank email.

Hi there Kieran,

Congratulations!

And to show you how appreciative I am:

2, 4, 6, 8,
Who do we appreciate?
Kieran!  Kieran!
Yaaaaaaaaay Kieran!

Thanks very much for all you’ve done.  I’m unable to call out on my phone due to the fact that someone broke in last week and stole every third digit off of the face of the phone, but just know that I’m incredibly grateful for all you’ve done, even though it was your job and all.  If you need someone to hug you, I’m your guy.

thanks,

Are You Desperately in need of a loan help? or do you have bad credit contact us via: :dannywhite2010@aol.com with Amount needed and Loan Duration.

Why, as a mater of fact, Kadrilik-Katherine-Danny Petrarca-Naomi-White, I am desperately in need of a loan!

Hello Katherine,

I’m in the process of creating the world’s largest alpaca farm.  I am raising them, then killing and stuffing them for use on those cute quarter rides that you find at the grocery store.  I’ve raised them and killed them but now need the funds to hire a taxidermist to handle the stuffing portion of my plan.  I can’t find a taxidermist locally that can handle the large number of stuffings that I have, but I did find a used car salesman two towns over willing to handle the job.  He wants $125.00 per alpaca, $215.00 if I go for the optional protective undercoat.

I currently have 18,941 dead alpacas stored in the second floor of my house.  By my math, that means I’m going to need a loan of $4,072,315.00.  The gentleman explained that I can’t really afford to go without the undercoat as some of the alpacas will be installed in grocery stores located in extreme cold climates, where corrosive anti-freezing measures are used in the parking lots.

I plan on this taking off very quickly, therefore being able to pay you back in very short order.  Without trying to seem overly optimistic about how long this will take, I would set the duration of the loan for 45 minutes.

I very much look forward to your reply, as it’s begun to smell very badly in my house.

thanks,

Subj: [Ann] Letter from a U.S. Marine- 3/26/2011

Good Day,

I am SGT Steven D. Spencer, a US Marine Sergeant serving in the 3rd Battalion, 25th Marine Regiment that Patrols the Anbar Province,Iraq. I am desperately in need of assistance and have summoned up courage to contact you. I am presently in Iraq and I got your contact particulars from a data mining company based back home in the states.

Your assistance is needed to evacuate the sum of $18 million (eighteen Million U.S Dollars) to a safe country; as far as I can be assured that it will be safe in your care until my service completion on 11th September, 2011.

Your help requires a private arrangement and with the help of a British contact working with the UN here (his office enjoys some immunity),you will receive these funds and invest them on our behalf. I am willing to part with generous management fees as well as show my utmost appreciation for fewer questions asked. I have waited for 7 years to allow the dust to settle and its clear no one is raising any issues on this.

A gentle reminder as the story was on BBC World News(link below):

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/2988455.stm

I look forward to getting a straight answer from you in order to let us work out the modalities involved. This fund is currently located in Iraq and awaits your urgent response. Please reply to my personal email address contained in my signature below.

Respectfully,
SGT Steven D. Spencer

Holy shit, it’s a real-live Marine!

Ooh rah, my motherfucking devil dog!  How the hell are you?

My name is PVT. Schwim Dandy of Weapons Co. 2/2 and a life-long jar head.  Why only  a private?  Because I’m a hard-charging, motherfucking Marine and I love to party, that’s why.  That and I crashed the base commander’s humvee into the PX…..while he was in the back.

Fuck that shit though.  Let’s make us some money! I don’t think we should deal with your British contact.  Number one, he’s British.  Number 2, he’s not American. I’ve got some ideas of my own about how we can get this money back to the states:

1) Kill some fucking ragheads, hollow their corpses with an ice-cream scoop, fill their skins with money and use them as carry-on luggage on the flight back to the states.

2) I will fly over and eat the motherfucking money.  When we get back, I will shit you out exact change.

3) You fold all the bills into paper airplanes and throw them towards the U.S.  I’m not an aerospace engineer, but surely some of that shit will make it across.  I’ll hang out at the beach waiting for when they do.

Of course, you may have a better idea, but seeing as how you’re a Marine, I doubt it.  We’re bred to kill, not to think!  You might want to ask a corpsman though, they seem too smart for their own good.

Fuck Yeah!

Subj: hi there

hi

I saw your profile on facebook and decided to write you
Let me know if you do not mind. If you want I can send you some pictures of me.
I am a nice pretty girl, email me directly at swiemboilla@hotmail.com

Quite the feat Elisabeth, seeing as how I don’t have a facebook profile.

Hi Elisabeth,

I think it’s a fantastic idea that you send me some pictures of yourself! I would especially love it if you sent one of you kissing a porpoise. That would be just too cute! If you can’t do that, then one of you fighting a ninja would suffice.

thanks,

I got this from a person that’s either proud of being able to abbreviate or has so many people that they want to insult, time constraints don’t allow for verbosity:

Good day How are you currently doing? I enjoy most of your page.

Want to check out my exclusive photos?

Email me at remepikisteybol@hotmail.com and i am going to answer back with my private photographs.

I wasn’t going to write this one back, but to be completely honest, I’m as proud of my boobs as she is of hers.

Hello there,

I can’t thank you enough for showing me parts of your boobs.  I find them entrancing and thought it was only fair that I return the favor.
