3. The SpinThemeDarkPeach6 package with kvantum theme and matching gtk theme in one package.
4. The grub and login screen use the same wallpaper and themes as the desktop.
5. The release is up to date as of 8/2/2024.
6. An optional Firefox/Waterfox theme, SbK Dark Peach6, is available here, just click on the image in Firefox to install it.
7. Conky isnt sinstalled by default because the desktop is aimed at visually impaired users, and the screen reader cant read it.

My wife came home from the hospital late last nite. I have to take care or her, so this release and Cinnamon were/are delayed. Her name is Sherry Bielefeldt, if you are a person of faith like me, please say a prayer for her recovery.
