Wow, that's pretty cool. How to apply that concept to my desktop, now there's a good question.

It's Karamba... or more specifically Super Karamba. Browse KDE-look.org's section about it and try some themes

heh.. I installed karamba with Debian apt-get. Just a simple apt-get install karamba, download a theme, and volia!

Now it's time to go visit some irc linux channels and congratulate myself, just so a bunch of jerks can ridicule me for some small thing and act like I dont know crap.

Thanks for looking at my LQ theme!!! I spent a while working on that.

If you want the rest of my themes you have to go to my website. http://www.calpoly.edu/~rmartine/screenshots.html

I didn't post them to kdelook.org, also they've been updated since crystal .9 has been released.

Right now I'm trying to work on coding the Extreme Bar Karamba theme from kdelook.org. If the designer ever e-mails me the .png files I can get on that soon.

When you're using one of the Karamba task bars, can you kill the Kicker process? Or, will that screw something up?

KDE is a huge memory hog, and I'd just as soon not have kicker running if I don't have to.

You can kill the kicker. I do know you lose all the taskbars and the K start function. I'm pretty sure the start menu can be returned easily.

The problem I had with killing kicker was that when I minized an app, it wold dissapear and I couldn't get it back without using a terminal. It was kind of inconvenient.

ps -aux | grep kicker
