It's made with blender. The source (basically just the texture, which is the official crystal logo with the egdes un-rounded) is too big to post it here, but you can download it from here: http://hexbox.de/fred/wallpapers/k-brick/ There is also a 1600x1200 pix version of the wallpaper. |

I have seen the original wallpaper without transparency already and I really loved it! This version is great too, but the shadow could be a lot darker.
Yesterday I tried to do something similar myself (http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=28755), but I'm a absolute beginner with Blender and I don't know how to use raytracing or radiosity and still have a transparent background with Blender. So it uses the default renderer with no reflection and ugly shadows. How did you do the transpareny? |

- Drag'n'drop support. If I drag (not drop!) a file on the tray icon, kompose should pop up. Then it should raise the window over which the mouse pointers rests for a short time (1/2-1 second). Expose works like that AFAIK. And it would also be consistent with the behavior of the task bar.
- how about using opengl for scaling the images? Wouldn't this be much faster? At the moment the thumbnail appear on the screen one by one. What is the bottleneck here? Ok, maybe this isn't worth the effort, if Qt4's Arthur can use OpenGL as a backend.
- Assigning each window thumbnail a unique key would be nice. Either from a-z or (better) corresponding to the order of the keys on the keyboard. 0 would the the image in the first row of the left, q is the first of the second row etc. Different keyboard layout complicate this a little, and if there are too many windows you would still have to click the window or use the cursor.
Another idea would be to assign the shortcuts so that each window keeps it's shortcut as long as possible, even if the position in the layout changes. Hm, maybe this would be a nice addition for kwin's Alt-Tab, too :D |

Is there a version which compiles with KDE 3.3/3.4? Or does anybody know any other decorations with the title bar on the side? |

I stumbled over your window decoration after submitting http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=102607.
I asked for a way to embed the menu bar into the title bar of an application. Unlike your window decoration, this can't work without support by kdelibs, but on the other hand there is the mac os style menu alreay, so why not introduce another lavour, which is more pleasing for non-mac-users. Votes welcome ;)
Rearding your window decoration - is it possible to have no border at the top at all, so that I hit the menu bar automatically without this somewhat weird auto-jump feature? Because the way it is now, the click-drag-release method of using menus doesn't work.
The second think is the missing title. Without a title at all, it might be cleaner solution to put the window buttons on the right/left hand side of the window, like SideKap (http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=2050).
Maybe you could guess the amount of unused space in the menu bar by looking at the pixels right in the row right below to lower bound of our window buttons. Very often there might be enough room for the title - and with it a nice bar to move the window without using the keyboard. |
