How to replace Activities word with any image in Gnome Shell
For this tutorial I will use Gnome Shell 3.4 and its default theme, but this will work also on 3.2 and pretty much on any theme that doesn’t already use an
image for Activities. You will need user-theme extension, gnome-tweak-tool, an image and of course GNOME 3.2+.
.
.
First we copy default shell theme to our local themes folder.
Shell theme lies on
/usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/*
and we copy these files to
~/.themes/mydefault/gnome-shell/
We run gnome-tweak-tool and we choose “mydefault” theme. Then we open gnome-shell.css inside. ~/.themes/mydefault/gnome-shell/
On line ~331 we will find the css responsible for the panel. We modify it to look like this:
….....
/* Panel */
#panelActivities {
border: none;
background-image: url("gnome.png");
background-position: 5px 4px;
width: 63px;
height: 24px;
color: rgba(0,0,0,0.0);
}
#panelActivities:hover {
transition-duration: 300;
background-image: url("gnome.png");
}
#panelActivities:active,
#panelActivities:overview {
background-image: url("gnome.png");
}
#panel {
background-color: black;
font-weight: bold;
height: 1.86em;
}
…......
gnome.png is our example image (you can replace it with whatever) and you should put it inside gnome-shell directory.
If you will use another image don’t forget to change the dimensions on
#panelActivities width: 63px; height: 24px;
to match your image dimensions. If you need to adjust the height of the panel change the
#panel {
….
height: 1.86em;
}
As you see above, we can use 3 different images for the 3 different states
of shell activities.
That’s all, Hit
Alt+F2 "rt"
Enter
Well quite simple :)

it can be used to talk or chat through the internet,
it is using strong encryption.
but for example TOR is using some obfuscation because some countrys try to block all outgoing connections which can not be scanned with DPI
And the TOR Project is facing an arms race in obfuscation and encryption detection.

please have a look at this link. it is a FAQ, QuickTip, HowTo, etc etc etc …
If you want to make friends, please use the Chatservers.
#1 https://www.f2f-fr.net/w2c/en/
#2 http://retrosharechatserver.no-ip.org/w2c/en/
if you enter your certificate, the chatserver adds you as his friend and shows his certificate too add him to your friends.
After the connection to the chatservers is established, you can join a few chatrooms where the chatserver is lurking.
in this rooms are other people too help you and make first friends and get into the network.
add friends only with wisdom. if you friend some policeman, it will be problematic like in real life.
best is to add only people you trust in real life or trust from other communitys too. and not to add random unkown strangers.
If you have questions, ask them in the chatlobbys, there is always someone to answer them.
please read http://redd.it/18vsq5
or question me here :)
