Hi, like you superkaramba theme. What I would like is to have a full size LP, i.e. the centre part where the lable is displayed should be much smaller, with a tiny hole in the centre where it fits on the turntable.

What I mean is, I normally play full cd's, not just singles, so therefore I would like to have something that displays a full LP playing.

I would try and change your theme to my needs, but I'm not too good with python & IM. - Apr 15 2008

Would it be possible for you to release a livecd/dvd of your Mac-like PCLinuxOS? I could host it for you, and maybe there's others that would also want to download it. - Jan 03 2008

Could you please provide more details on how you've got your KDE to look like this?

Maybe a step-by-step guide, with links to all the resources you've used.

Although I'm not a Debian user, I must say that your logo looks very nice. I like the font you've used for it. Maybe Debian should be thinking of updating their default logo to the one you've created. - May 08 2007

I'm trying to change your theme a little, but would like some help.

I like to change the blue-ish line (that's on the right & bottom of the window) to white (like it's on the top & left of the window). But I don't know which line(s) to change. I've tried searching for the HEX colour value of the blue-ish line, but I can't seem to find it.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. - Feb 02 2007

At first all the Vista themes looked good, but your's is so much better. I really like the black glass effects. - Jan 10 2007

Hi, I would like to suggest that there's an option in the config of KBFX to change whether the right-click menu opens upon right-click OR left-click.

This way you could create a nice right-click menu, and it will open when you left-click on kbfx, sort of to replace the current kmenu. - Aug 01 2005

Man, this looks awesome. I like your colours, layout, the scrollbar, everything. I just wish this can become a reality.

Or better still if the whole kmenu could become skinable/theme-able, for those who wish to have different style kmenu's. - Jun 24 2005

It would be nice if you could make a download available so we could also test your new window decoration. Can't wait for it to be released! - Feb 17 2005

It looks great! I like the round corners, and the buttons are cool. I also like your colour scheme (the orange title bars on the active windows).

Like to see more like these. - Feb 16 2005

Transparency looks nice, but the way I would like to use it is by making all the background windows transparent (like you've did - I think) and only have the active window opaque. Is this how you're setup works?

I've seen screenshots of people that have transparency over all windows, and that isn't really practical.

I like your screenshots. This should be the future for KDE, and the way it should work with a default KDE setup. - Feb 15 2005

I really like what you've done to the desktop, and the way you've customized it. You've really did a great job & by describing all that you've done - Excellent!

Some suggestions: please could we have some of your SuperKaramba themes. Would you consider posting some here on KDE-Look? I'm interested in your Clock (top right) and all those weather themes (at the bottom) and the way you've did the scanlines, etc. Also another great theme would be those icon scroller (at the right).

Once again, great work. - Sep 22 2004

Will there be any updates for WinBar in the future? I'm not programmer, but would like to see this being developed further to be more XP like.

You've got a great theme started here for all newbies, why not take it a little further. Update the taskbar a little (doesn't show all the windows opened) or if possible make it so that it could group similar windows together.

Looking forward to see any further developments. - Oct 22 2003
