Oh dear...before I saw this, I got rid of that wallpaper and replaced it with another one that I made. The new one looks very similar, but I used a different font for CROWZ
Thanks! Very nice you used the font from CROWZ obmenu header! 
Hmmm...gives me idea for the next release! 
Thanks again, nice work and for a guy like myself that had issues with drawing stick figures really admire you artisticr abilities! : )
cheers

@ Nili: STAR and CROWZ both use the JWM setup similar to Manjaro, where the configuration files are in usr/.config/jwm.
Not sure if this was what you were describing as your attempt.

Thank you for doing a test drive of CROWZ ob.
How do you pack so much stuff into such a small .iso?
Use squashfs for compression during the build to reduce the size, exact percentage not sure perhaps between 12-18%
...and how do you get things like Synaptic to open with pkexec?
Use gksudo to open Synaptic, however pkexec is a graphical frontend of PolicyKit. Use...
/usr/lib/policykit-1-gnome/polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1 &to help facilitate mounting other drives on my machine, primarily with Thunar although it may work with others. Also requires gvfs to work as needed.
..and how do you get a 64bit with the items running at start-up to boot up at +/- 125 MBs of RAM?
This is where Devuan takes all the glory, wasn't that way with Debian. Just a layman's view but think systemd has a lot of bloat and consume resources. Also, an approach in using smaller, simpler applications that just get the job done.
Most of all is having a mentor like Ozi as a good advisor and keeping FOSS as a compass.
Thank you for your kind and thoughtful words, we all do what we do for our users. Besides, Dan you are the one who has Devuan's only Awesome Wm release!

@ dxrobertson: Kris has a unique voice and singing style which I like when first heard him on the radio, enjoyed him as an actor as well.
Really liked FarmAid and what they were trying to achieve, Neil Young also one of my favorites.

Thanks to ivanovnegro for bringing the " blown-away" advert image for Maxwell recording tapes forward from the 1970's, has always been one of my most admired ads from those years.
Pianobar running and URxvt.
@ Miyo, the cubes wallpaper is an attractive wallpaper, not to busy and to me eye pleasing. Use the gray on another install (Miyo awesome). : )
By the way folks, it was me who won the MiyoLinux desktop T-shirt contest! : )
Didn't know until I saw the video...no way I thought but happy we all had a chance to participate and support Devuan!

Blame that last purpy theme update, that happened with Jessie right before the final release...on a hunch looked and yes ASCII 2.0 was there in Downloads!
