this is a screenshot of a Windows XP theme, you can find more themes like that at the Window Blinds page What i wanted to say is that some of these themes look pretty good Why not make some KDE themes that look like that

If KDE looked like that, we'd be in a lot of trouble. KDE is a desktop environment that tries to target the lowest common denominator of users. However, it has tools available to power users that allow them to make it look like whatever they want (including like your example from WindowsXP). Regular users do not want a "31337 desktop", they want something clean and simple that they can understand. While that's a very pretty theme, it's still an artist's pipedream and will no doubt scare most users who are used to a vanilla interface. This is why M$ and Apple have always had relatively bland interfaces, and even took a step back to make them even more "childish".

Aside from the not good for general users... if my machine had that kind of a poorly designed and over engineered interface, I'd be upset. :)

Unfortunately if you're a weenie, Windows is your only option... give me your IP and I'll show you the power of Linux.

 themes for all

an xp theme on k-l.org!! One wonders whether it is legal at all! It is (of course), and it's also a good thing (tm), for the following reasons:

1. we need to know what the competition is up to. There are very talented people designing themes for windows, and we want to copy (yes, copy, let's call things with their name) the best things they do. And i, for one, having stopped using windoze in 95, would have never found such a theme.

2. It is not only perfectly OK to copy the interfaces of other OSes, we HAVE to do it! If someone wants an XP, OSX, Nextstep, Amiga etc. etc. look on their KDE, they have the right to have it and we must offer them. Open source is about choice, no?

As for this particularly theme, I like it a lot! I think it makes an excellent light gray, bright. theme!
Here on k-l.org, there is screenshot ("doug's desktop", I think) that is based on the same idea, and is actually better, IMHO.
The author promised to do a theme out of it, but it never cameout, sadly .. (hint)

i know that this theme looks a little bit too fancy but still ... it looks pretty good :-D and i'm sure that there are at least a few KDE users who would like to have the opportunity to download such a theme, that is why i am you guys out there (thos who know how to make themes, cause i don't) help the k-l.org community and try to make a KDE theme that looks like that

Once again - I've used winbloze blinds - yeah its a nice program for what it does and to what operating system it does it to, unfortunately KDE is much too powerful for the likes of Windows/Binds users...

FUCKING SHIT!!!

Almost all these themes here:
http://www.wincustomize.com/skins.asp?wp=1&sort=updatedate&searchtext=&order=&library=1
look at least as good as the ones we have here and most look a lot better. They have everything we do here and more. A lot more themes to chose from. They also have icons
http://www.wincustomize.com/skins.asp?wp=1&sort=updatedate&searchtext=&order=&library=1
and all kinds of things. NOOO PLEASE PORT HTESE! LINUX NOW LOST ONE OF THE COOLEST THINGS ABOUT IT! NOW XP LOOKS BETTER NOOO! That website i also as good as this one and window binds is good too. DAMN IT! Now I lsot my bragging rights that Linux looks better than XP. How can I convince my friends now. XP has some better programs like PS 7 it's also pretty stable and hardware always works with it because MS is a fucking monopoly. PLEASE TELL ME SOMETHING GREAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN TO LINUX! LIKE WINDOWBINDS BEING PORTED SO I CAN USE THE THEMES j/k!!! ARGGG!

sorry i am extremely pissed off

windowblinds = crap. yes, it looks nice, it also makes windows crash even more, and uses TONS of memory.

"NOW XP LOOKS BETTER NOOO!" that's not true, i don't find most xp themes to be pretty (personally). it's so cartoonish/childish. kde looks MUCH better, this is a screenshot of KDE3
0, can you honestly say that ANY of those windowblinds themes look better? http://www.jamsession.co.uk/screenshots/snapshot1.png

"That website i also as good as this one and window binds is good too." Nah, kde-look is nicer, and window blinds is crap.

"XP has some better programs like PS 7" PS7? Never heard of it, anyway there are quite some wonderful linux apps which don't exist in windows.

"hardware always works with it because MS is a fucking monopoly" I 've heard of quite some compability problems, with video cards etc for which there aren't any drivers in XP, unless you d/l them from m$.com

"PLEASE TELL ME SOMETHING GREAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN TO LINUX!" I really don't understand you, there's nothing wrong with linux - windowblinds is crap and most themes are ugly.

 windowblinds

i use both linux and winxp on my computer, its somewhat of a mood thing........but i use windowblinds 3.3 sometimes, and depending on what theme im using, it only uses 2-4 mb memory, doesnt make any noticable speed change (im on a 800mhz pIII laptop) and ive never had it crash. anyways if it makes a particular program crash, you can tell it to exclude it
