Hello everyone, long time no see, but I'm back as I'm looking at changing my distro again.

At the moment I use Mint 9, however it isn't the most reliable distro. It is rather nice, clean and sleek, but I'm thinking of dare I say, more eye candy.

I don't like Unity to be honest, so that rules out Ubuntu 11. Mint 9 is an exception for me as I usually don't like KDE or Gnome and find XFCE distros 'nicer'.

I used to use dreamlinux back in the days before they made it bloated with the desktop editions. However I did enjoy it. I used to love Vixta, before it became Xange.


So I'm looking for a change, so far Vectorlinux looks nice.

I've looked at Mint, Ubuntu/xubuntu, opensuse, dreamlinux, thunar, pclinuxos, centos and vectorlinux while helping out someone else on making the jump to linux.

Are there any distros you would all recommend for me to look at? Screenshots would be nice.




Thanks in advance ...
