Hi.
I'm basically an Apple user for my entire life. Now I'm 55 years old and I started using computers when I was 15 years. Macs are safe computers and not chaotic all, very boring is the right attribute.
Last winter, I decided to build my first PC. One thing I had in mind, it would not be boring as a Mac. I started to look every PC configurations videos on YT to know what I had to buy, and boy, endless choice is the rule in PC building.
Here is what my PC build has:
Motherboard Asus TUF Gaming Pro Wi-Fi, Ryzen 7 5800X, 2x8GB 3600MHz RAM, 2 TB Sabrent Rocket PCIe 4x NVMe M.2 SSD, 1TB Samsung SSD, Sapphire Nitro+ 570x 8GB RAM.
I paid US$ 175,00 for this graphic card, brand new, sealed in the box. After I bought that the Graphic Cards prices went way up.
In the build I didn't want that frigged look Macs also have. The cabinet is all black and has a space grey brushed metal front plate. Inside only leds are the SAPPHIRE logo on the graphic board and on the Asus Motherboard.
When I was looking the PC building videos, I saw on project that this guy used a small screen and a Raspberry PI to create a computer status display without using cables. What a fantastic idea, I thought.
I bought all the parts and installed on my PC. You can look for yourself.
Here is a closer look at my Default customized theme.
Here is the background image I made.
I hope it can help some of you.
I also hope, the MoBros team can make it easier to make themes with a theme editor or something like that.
Best regards,
Keep working hard!
PS: I use an ELECROW 5 Inch Raspberry Pi Monitor Touchscreen Capacitive IPS Display 800x480 USB Powered HDMI Monitor with Built-in Speaker & Stand for Raspberry Pi 4 3 2 Model B Win PC. I bought at Amazon but look carefully because they have other 5 inch display from this same ELECROW, I paid U$60.00.
Unfortunately, I can't give how I have the widgets setup, not because I don't want, but because I could not find a way to export it.
But if I manage to configure it, also you can do too.
Found a way to share my config.
On your drive window, go to this location C:\Users\typeyouruserhere\AppData\Local\MoBro_Local\layout\default
There you will see a predefined file that you can open with Nope Pad.
Make a backup copy of it to your desktop. If something goes wrong you can restore this file back.
Now open the original file on Note Pad and copy over the content bellow:

------------------------------------------
Now save the file and restart your computer.
Later you can use a background image I made or another one that you wish to do.
Hi @Zillomab, thanks for sharing that, looks pretty nice! We are actually working on enabling sharing layouts to make that easier.
Really nice layout and background!
I'm looking forward to the sharing feature so more people can share their Layouts (Dashboards).
Thank you @Dave and @GhosTz for your kind words. But your work is far superior and more important, keep up the great job.
I'm using ModBros since 6 months ago, and I had this theme for some time.
I have some new ideas and now that I learned that Dubbadhar is open for change and MoBro V10 is here, it is a piece of cake to make new themes.
Is there a way to add a clock? It doesn´t need to be a fancy one, just a one line clock is enough.
@Zillomab Thanks for sharing the backgrounds! I hope you don't mind but I used the red one for my build.
thank you, i have create my own based on your config, thanks
@AcidBurn63 I enjoy that you enjoyed. LOL
