files will be uploaded later.
A full revamp of KDE for Kubuntu.
All graphics will be re-done from scratch, including icons, menu, background, splash, ect... In the screen shot, everything that is not blured is my own work, done from scratch. The blurred parts are the elements that have not yet been themed.

Alpha files uploaded!
-Decided on crystal for default non-3D window border (I know not everyone has 3D-accel)
-Added more wallpapers (for variation)
-Polyester Style (using the menu effects, will upload ktheme soon)
- NEEDED: contributing artsists willing to commit to working on the KDM/Splash screens and assisting me with the icon theme.
-Dekorator preview 1 is finished. All coments and suggestions are welcome.

Look at the Windows XP palette for example -- while many of the people who visit KDE-Look.org hate Windows, it did do a few things right, and from the artistic viewpoint the variation, combined with consistency of its pallete helped to make it more appealing (e.g: by using brights and primaries -- green as the 'go' color, yellow (e.g. tabs) as the highlight color, blue for the scrollbar colors), giving it a friendly, accessible look.
Ubuntu even did many things right -- and while its pallete is consistent (shades of brown) it does vary somewhat by injecting color (bright orange) into important elements like icons and creating a high level of contrast and the occasional hue tweak -- (note the sharply outlined icons as well). Never does the color become the stale grey, medium-light grays are the color of interface elements that you would want to ignore (a good example of this is the color of the background in KDE-look.org)
Making things shinier does not make them friendlier necessarily, if you want to make something slick, try to make it friendly and appealing at the same time if possible.
Thx for reading!
