I see a whole bunch of cool screenshots out there and sometimes find myself becoming envious.

So I spend some time thinking of and figuring out a rarely-if-ever seen look and layout. I have finally come up with this:
http://64.15.147.55/~tridel08/supremeove…shot24OCT08.png

This is my primary system, which runs Debian Lenny (with a twist of Etch and Sid in aptitude).
My desktop environment is KDE 3.5.6.
I have a main panel with 20 desktops total, so I will never worry about screen real estate.
The shading color isn't the images, it's KDE's shade function.
Top 6 used programs directly on the panel (the 5 top used are programs that failed to start automatically).
The only analog clock in the house is on the main panel.
Extended window management buttons (yes, i do use them).
And finally a tray panel of sorts on the lower right.

*(what's unseen is a third panel on the bottom that is just a 'run' entry box)

Well, what do you die-hard KDE enthusiasts think? Is my UI among the cooler ones? Could you envision mimicking part or all of it?

(yes i'm open to criticism and flaming too)

ah, so far everyone who has voted thinks my UI is awesome; COOL!
