Conky Goodness
I uploaded a new screenshot:
The conky with weather pictures in it is stolen from RAMC's conkyrc which you can find on the Gentoo MB and also apparently here. There's a python script there to fetch and display weather info.
Whoever thought up the idea of making a font that consists of little weather pictures was pretty clever. Whoever thought up making a font that consists of Linux distro emblems has a bit too much time on his hands.
Oddly enough, Unicode itself includes glyphs for weather symbols. e.g. this is Unicode character 2603:
☃
If your font supports it, it should show up as a snowman. If your font doesn't support it, it may show up as an ice cube.

Unicode is so cool! Too bad most of the characters are quite hard to find :\
BTW, I love your background ? where did you get it from? :D
I think Brian creates his own backgrounds.
Also, what's up with 1 GB of boot partition?
You can get the wallpaper here. I wish I'd drawn it though.
I've run out of space on /boot before because I keep all my old kernels. But then I decided to mask the new kernels and keep the same one for a year. Oops.
Great, but don't you have something better to do than mess with fonts? ;) Oh yeah, KDE.
Need to mention too, thanks for the Vimrc.
A snowman with a little hat. Junicode is by far my favorite fully (or nearly-fully) UNICODE compliant font. It includes darn near everything, including the esoteric runic symbols I needed at the time.
Cool font, thanks.
I like your icons :Q__ (link? :P)
The icons are Buuf.
