Who wants to write a basic About box for Linux Lite?

Jerry:
Can you get rid of the maximize and minimise buttons on the title bar, and make the window non-resizeable please.

Jerry:
In it's current state it looks damn good! We can collab more on this on the weekend if that suits you. Excellent job!

I was not able to find this banner on my computer, so I borrowed it from the main website and edited it in GIMP to make it smaller.
As you can see it is not top quality resolution  image like the main site, if this is the banner wanted I would need the image in better quality resolution, or a location of one on the hard drive, so I can add the Path to it in the code.
The banner can be bigger or it can be centred better.

I was unsure of how you want the Version text placement or wording ?
Do you want the Copyright line moved to centre in width or left aligned as it is.
I need to center the bottom three buttons in the next version, as they look slightly to the right.
Here is the updated code.

Here is the code for as it is above.
I will look in to how to link to the icon.

Jerry:
That's excellent bitsnpcs, we are on the right track :)

You can point to an existing logo icon location in your code. If you could embed your code into this thread each time you make a change, that would be great.
