Xfce theme - tish
Icons - Numix-Circle-Light
Font - Droid Sans 10
Conky - Green Apple Desktop Widget
Wallpaper - from Wallhaven 235412.jpg

Compositing is turned on and I fiddled with transparency to make things feel lighter/modern. The bottom is not a launcher, but just a modified panel.  I centered it and added a transparent background with 64 pix icons.  Whisker at the top left and Applications and Directory down low on the "launcher".

I just installed Linux Lite and I am quite impressed.
Only thing I miss is the Cinnamon Desktop. Is it possible to install it additionally?

We don't support other DE's. Of course you are welcome to try but you must very familiar with linux systems, login managers etc. We can't help you if you break your system with untried, unsupported DE's so be sure to do a Systemback backup first. Then you can easily revert if it turns to jelly.

No updates for 9-1/2 years now... That worries me the most to be honest.

Yeah, usually I don't use older stuff, but I've had zero issues with this and I've seen users fanning it up until this year.  It affects very little and I'm willing to take the chance.
