Frosted glass or wax paper. Etched glass doesn't seem to be the right name. - Jul 19 2005

Phase

QtCurve by Brandybuck 34 comments

I really like this style and I was wondering ...

There is a long-standing complaint of kde style saying that the menu entry spacing is too close. I'm not sure if your style can override that but one should conscious of this for usabilty reasons.

I was thinking that the colored-inside-diamond's border of the radiobox/checkbox could be of an even more contrasting color which would stand out for colorblind and noncolorblind people alike

new font dialog

Various KDE 1.-4. Improvements by mikelima 13 comments

I personally don't like anti-aliased fonts in the 8 - 14 pt size range but the current font manager only works for programs that use the "size" entry the font config file. Konqueror uses "pixelsize" from the config file so the exclusion part from font editor program gets ignored. I would love to see this changed. I know how to do this manually but a little gui would be nice. - Jun 07 2003

Don't knock a idea just because it doen't suit your needs. Remember choice is what Gnu/Linux is all about. Some of us have been raised on other os's and get accustomed to things being one way. It's not wrong to want to make things like they were on other os's. Just look at all the mac/beos/windows look-a-like thems on this site. - May 21 2003

Fusion X Aqua

KDE 3.0-3.4 Themes by AquaFusion 22 comments

Your theme is a start but there is some highlighting problems. The scrollbar has the highlight on the rightside but the rest seems to have the light coming straight down. Most people don't notice this, but if a style is to be professional looking, it needs to be consistant with its shadows and highlights. - Mar 07 2003

Not only is this the best icon style imo but you have given us a non blue theme. (you themed your theme :) ) This is unbelievable. Just the amount of time it would take to do this is unbelievable. Keep up the good work. - Feb 08 2003

Noia for KDE 1.00

Icon Sub-Sets by Carlitus 258 comments

This theme is impressive because it is so original. That brings me to my only gripe which is the arrow buttons look out of place beside that awesome home button. I guess it is the round button look. Maybe if the arrows were more noia-ish without the round background.

I wouldn't worry about making the icons follow user interface guidlines because that is so subjective. An image that means web-browser to me doesn't necessary mean the same to everyone else. - Nov 23 2002
