I will try to respond to the last few posts.
I have in mind some changes.
First, a more advanced configuration options, this will require rewriting the configuration dialog making use of qt designer.
After that, things like menubar/toolbar emphasis, highlighed menu items and other things will be configurable (i hope i will be able to mantain the usability of the configuration dialog at a decent level).
And of course taking care of some graphical oddities (like the black border on the active tab and some other ugly things).

Unfortunately at the moment (and probably the next few months/year) i will have very little spare time for various reasons, so the developement will slow down a little bit, but it's not dead, i promise :-) - Jan 26 2006

KDE 3.5 Themes by mart 395 comments

the black border says you that the tabbar is selected, so if you press the left/right arrow key it will change the active tab.
i am not sure if removing it would be a good thing, maybe it has only an incorrect size... - Jan 26 2006

uhm, strange, it should be present both in kstyle config and windeco config.
two reasons that come in my mind:
-maybe breezy has kde3.5 beta and the themes have some incompatibility? (very strange)
-did you install it with the right prefix? (afaict kubuntu have kde installed in /usr) maybe configure fails to autodetect where kde is installed and so installs in the wrong place. try to add an explicit --prefix=/usr
if the reason is none of both itruly can't imagine what could be... - Sep 26 2005

Congrats, nice app :-)
I noticed kay can become a full featured automounter with very few lines of code.

It's sufficient adding also mimetypes for unmounted devices in actionhook.cpp line 317, and if the kded "kded media manager" is on (default in kde 3.4) it will mount the devices when accessed :-) - Jun 28 2005

Do you logged in as the same user that you used for installing? the theme is installed in the users's home.

I fear it's a Konqueror/qt problem (see http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54359#c1 and http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53101) kde looks for cursors with strange hash values as the name, but, some cursors i never found what's their real name ( for example almost on my system the DnD cursors in konqueror never worked), and i didn't found so hepful neither the output of a strace of a whole kde session(only the hash values that I knew already where present), but some cursors still refuses to change.
But maybe a future version of qt will resolve it. - Aug 04 2003

Cursors by mart 123 comments

Maybe I understood the problem...
At the moment the install script installs the cursors in the user's home, and when you have installed it as root you have placed the theme in /root/.icons/crystal, so you see the theme only in the applicatios that runs as root.
At the moment you must do the install scipt for every user, or if you want a system-wide configuration you must place the cursors in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/icons (almost in a Mandrake/redHat distribution) - Aug 04 2003

Maybe it's true that there is a little "incongruence" between the xkill, hand and the others, but i fear it will become some way "monotone".
If we look at the crystal icon theme evolution it started with an heavy blue dominance, and with the time it has become more various.
