A block of black!

-
Yesterday and today I have been fighting with a film strip for the K3B icons and I have totally blocked, usually my answer is a bad movie and some junk food. And that usually works, or..... heee... not, either way I still get to eat a burger :).
But today I decided to try a different angle, do something black, as you all know I have a thing for black and bubbles.... so here it goes a blackish bluish thing that you can use as an wallpaper, or nothing :).

In case you are wondering if my icon block is gone .... Nope.... But I did not had a burger :) thats a good thing right?.... hummmm Right?..... I wonder :P.

@Neo heeee plain inkscape its a trivial thing, just do some lines make copies of them blur them and there you go ...the copies must have a bigurer with that the main one so the blur is visible under the main one also use radial gradients in the lines for fun....

This image became my wallpaper since you published it. It replaced the dark grey one (also yours) I had before.

But sometimes I have an impression of low colour resolution. As if my screen were set to 16 bits instead of 24 bit true colour.

Today I opened this one in Gimp and made some tests. The degrade is really not so smooth as it could be.

What do you use to create these images? Maybe it is a bug in the renderer of your editor or a post processing you do that causes some loss in colour precision.

@Aldo Nogueira its that 24 bits its not enough and inkscape could do a beter joob in making radial gradients and fuzing that efect...

Design done...

Hello again, so I believe I am 90% done with the base style direction and main UI components for O², and am currently struggling with my not so bright idea of dinamic QML colour pallets.  Still overall I'm happy with the general visual direction of the UI style, it's IMO clearly derivative of Oxygen but today.  Now having done 90% of the design and doing the serious work I know that the solemn work that will take far far more time is upon me and us..  So in the next week's I will be mostly focussing on the qml implementation that as already started and implementing a kinda Oxygen-demo UI showcase. After that I have to do something even more difficult... That is to find a a icon style that does the same that the UI style above did.. bring to today oxygen of yesterday. And fix any of its issues...

The air we see...

Today the great Marco Committed air into svn. Let me just tell you a bit about air, air is a direct descendant of the air wallpaper, I made the first sketch of it the same day I made the wallpaper, and it tries to make the people that found the Oxygen theme "to black" happy. There is no one fits all design, and hopefully with air we can make a wider spectrum of people love KDE. ( in the future I think we can still make a couple more themes) Its still we hope coherent, there are a lot of small details that are shared with oxygen both qt theme as plasma theme. That gives it a feeling of belonging as part of the same experience. We introduced a brand new element in plasma theming, a cropped background the is placed on the plasmoid canvas, (you will see this in the future taken to new heights as it opens a fantasist new set of opportunities to designers). Its transparent, people love transparent stuff :) (we did some effort to avoid contrast issues, but with certain wallp

Do you like code? do you like art? Do you love KDE?

Yeah do you want to help us create O². Most of the design concepts are done, but my C++ QtStyle foomagic is lower than zero ;) so muhhhh heee... do you want to help? Janet extraordinaire yesterday helped a bit and adjusted the old Oxygen painting to do a preliminary implementation of the noise O² needs for its background, but that is only the very beginning of what is needed. Also if you have experience in kirigami/plasma, styling. Designers are welcome as well...   If you do...... Just made this https://t.me/OxygenSquared for chatty chatty things.
