You're welcome. About the icons, right click on the icon for each application in AWN and select "change icon". I searched for the icons using image search in Google and I altered some of them using Gimp, to match my desktop. I also got some of the icons from this website.

Hello again. Don't worry, it's a lot easier to install Avant Window Navigator using repositories than by building from sources.
Follow this guide:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=385981
Don't forget that Avant Window Navigator and AWN are the same thing.
If you run into any problems, send us a reply and I'll try to help you getting this software properly installed. |

Thanks for the comment. To completely hide the gnome-bar, go to system tools -> configuration editor (if it's not there, enable it in system->preferences->main menu) -> apps -> panel -> toplevels -> top_panel_screen0 (or any other panel available). Then, enable auto-hide and set the "auto_hide_size" value to 1.
This way the gnome-bar won't show up and you can still use it by putting the mouse cursor on the screen edge.
If you run into any problems doing this, post a reply for further help. |

Thanks for the comment, man. I really appreciate it. It's not difficult to have a desktop with those effects. What you need to get the icons and the panels installed is to install "gDesklets" and "Avant Window Navigator".
gDesklets will provide the panels on the side (or wherever you want to locate them). To install it, type in a commmand line:
sudo apt-get install gdesklets gdesklets-data
After this, you only need to install and activate the applets you prefer.
Avant Window Navigator is slightly more tricky, but also relatively simple. Just look on the internet for a "how to" on installing AWN. To run AWN you also need to be running a composite manager, like compiz-fusion, enabled by default in ubuntu gutsy.
If you have any problems installing this software leave a comment here and I will provide you with a detailed explanation on how to install it.
Good luck.
