The disapearing effect that you have usually on the bottom of many icons.

See 2nd preview screenhot, 2 last rows, all of the icons (except maybe for console). - Dec 09 2003

Many of the new icons have an exagerated fade effect. I don't like it.

It is also pretty bad for accessibility issues. People with certain eyesight limitations will have problems with those for sure.

You're working quite fast :)
Great job overall - Dec 09 2003

Great work so far!

About the icons, they are great!
One observation, I think the icon of the KPanel should stand out, but the opposite happens... every icons stands out more than the K on.

Very nice indeed :)
Plastik and Alloy are now my favourit ones. Just couple of obeservations.

The left most tab seems kind of weird.
IMO the left side should be aligned to what it connects to. Check out other styles like .Net, B3KDE or even HighColor default.
Both Plastik and Allow seem to do it "wrong".

I find the colouring a little weird when compared to some other styles. Maybe lack of contrast, some things seem faded...

It doesn't feel that light.
Maybe it's my impression though.

Anyway I'm just pointing out some not so good stuff. Overall I love it! :)

Hi Carlitus!
First off all, I also think your icon themes are the best so far, they are complete, beautiful and consistent!

I'd like to ask you if you are planning to update your themes to work with KDE 3.2, since new apps are on the way (like Kgpg)?
I know that *many* users are hoping for it!

I'd also like to know if you are still planning to release the 3rd Noia theme.

Thanks for all your work! - Aug 17 2003

It is in my opinion, the best icon set available for KDE. It should be distributed in the official KDE packages.

Besides beautiful, it is consistent. That is something missing in the crystal theme.

I just hope you release another one with a different pallete in the future - kde is getting to blue... :)

The wallpaper itself looks great but it didn't really match my color scheme or icon set.
I tried a few combinations I thought that it might go well with Pumpkin color scheme and Noia Warm icon theme.

I uploaded a screenshot here:

I like it a lot! Simple but not boring.
I'd prefer the center not so bright to be easier on the eyes, but I think that is a problem of mine.

This style is great!!
I'm using it now instead of keramik, and even though I changed because I prefered the way Alloy looks, I was really glad to see that my system was more responsive and felt much nicer after the change! (I'm running KDE on a P2 350Mhz).

The only thing I don't really like is the way the menu entries look when you point to them... I've tried tweking color schemes but it usually looks kind of weird and hard to read...

"Please, tell me what I can't do with GPL'ed material besides selling it or not giving credit where credit is due."

You got to be kidding. There are even restrictions regarding linkage of GPLed software with other software with incompatible licences. Come on, instead of posting do your homework.
And I don't even claim I'm an expert in licencing issues. I don't know that much compared to many people, still I know enough to see that you don't have any idea what you're talking about.

As for the rest of your comment, just read what I wrote again if you want an answer, all of it it, don't ignore/snip the important parts and you'll understand. - Jun 30 2003

"This is taken from the GPL. I see two things in the bold text. Distributed weath (source code if I may) and freedom to do what I want whith it, as long as I give credit to original author. What does that sound like to you? Definatly not capitalism."

No, you can not do what you want with it.
That is nowhere in the text. Again, there are lots of things you cannot do with GPLed stuff.

Again, communism has nothing to do with this. First we are talking about software and related stuff, not material welth, when I share it I still get to keep it all to myself.
But more important than that, I share what I want to share, I use the GPL when I want to, there are things I won't share and it is my right not to. Don't mix things.

"Now the source of the picture would proably be all the layers used to put the picture together, assuming he did save a GIMP or PSD file without flattening it first. I would like to see people outting these Gimp or Phototshop files up if they really are GPL."

Exactly, so I don't have any idea what he used to make it, since it is very simple I thought he might have used some paintbrush clone or something, I think that in that case the picture and the source could be the same.
Like you say, that might not be the case, it may have been done in GIMP or Photoshop, and in that case by not distributing the sources he is violating the GPL. - Jun 27 2003

GPL:
I've been reading the GPL to see if I am wrong about this. My conclusion is that maybe I am as it may apply to non-software works.
One of my questions is, what is the source code... well depending on how you made the picture, the picture itself might or might not be the source. In your case I think it makes sense to say it is.

Still I didn't like your answer at all because you say:
"Just means I can take that wallpaper and do whatever I want to it".
Wrong! GPL is not just that. It states what one can and what one *cannot* do with GPL'ed work, and there are many things that cannot be done.
So once again, unless you really know what you're doing, sometimes the best option is to leave that field blank, and not just put GPL because "every linux stuff is GPL anyway"... (and in case you're wondering, that is exactly what I would do, leave it blank).

COMMUNISM:
No, one thing has nothing to do with the other.
Well even if I'm wrong about the GPL I'm still glad I voted bad. - Jun 26 2003

Well it is funny, on the other hand some guys might take that seriously... so that is a tie.
So lets look at the license, GPL. Does it make any sense? In my opinion NO, and it is current practice on this site.

So I'm voting it bad, sorry.

Ok, I've read more about GPL... I admit that maybe I was wrong, and if that is the case than I apologise.

What is the source code here? The picture itself is the source? - Jun 24 2003

Because I don't think "Licence: GPL" makes any sense in this case...

If you don't know what to put there leave it blank.
If you think I'm wrong please say so and explain why this licence applies here.

...Both, the voters and the "author".

IMO the 2nd and 3rd one from this series are/were trash, not because they had a naked girl on it, but because the wallpaper itself was cheap and ugly.

The 1st though, beeing far from amazing, wasn't that bad, still it was voted down along with the other ones pretty fast.
