My release for the Conky & Emerald featured in this shot: [link]
A minimal and aesthetic emerald & conky theme Works well with any GTK theme with a dark gray bg color. In the screenshot linked above, I used "Spacedust". I used [link] as a "template" for the emerald theme.
rename it to a .tar.gz file and extract. double click the .emerald file. place the remove the underscore in front of the conkyrc file and put it in ~. you do have conky and emerald, i presume.
