Well i've think of starting coding visual applications on Linux.I am running KDE right now, but kde get's boring after a few months.I find GNOME good eye looking but a lot of guys suggest WindowMaker(for kde is qt,for gnome gtk, for windowmaker ...? )

Most applications with what are coded , Gtk or Qt ??
Isn' t there something unique to run in all x-enviroments ??
Btw, can gtk apps run in kde and reverse ?

Well, GTK and Qt are both greatand easy to use. You can find plenty of guide and tutorials to work on these.

I think that gtk apps are compatible with kde and the reverse is also true. gtk and qt are not desktop specific

If you have the gtk and qt libraries installed then the apps will run in KDE, GNOME or any other window manager

you can save yourself a lot of work when using qt

btw: there is a little difference between using plain QT and the KDE widget library...but I guess you'll find out ^^
