8 Thanks for this, I re-installed Arch and decided with LXQt as my desktop environment since I need all the resources possible for my machine and I was wondering how I could make it at least look good without compromising too much resources and I looked up a Win2k theme for LXQt and this first popped up, is recently updated and looks great. It's not perfect but looks great, fitting for an old(ish) machine too.
