Here's a plug for your plug...Nice plug. ;) Hi my name is Paul, I'm a graphic designer in the US (Massachusetts). I just found out about the Plasma project, and it sounds very exciting. Please check out my blog at openartist.net and tell me what you think of some of my work. I'm working on a new portfolio site but it won't be up for a few weeks...I'm learning Flash, and the learning curve is steeper than anticipated. Adios mi amigo!

I'm curious if you know anything about a club or forum for open source designers...there are a few out there and I wonder if there is a centralized place where they(we) meet. I think that the future of open source rests heavily on the organization of talented designers to come together and work with open source developers on usability and "looks" to create something truly innovative and amazing. I think it's possible...Anyway, I could type for hours but nice to know there are designers out there working torward this end...Last question; is Plasma working with the people inolved with Topaz, the next-gen gnome desktop? I think it would be great if you did, they seem to have a lot of great ideas.

One last thing, a critical commment. I think that the shadow on the grey cord of your plug gives it a "kink", what in my office we call a "wow", when a curve appears to have irregular shape to it that disturbs the eye. I'd give it s curve that follows the contour of the cord and not a "wave" as you have it.

Just a thought.

Cheers,
Paul

What is raptor? Raptor is a an amazing project i have been working in the last few days. It trays to be a fresh new way of finding your desktop applications, and interacting with its users. It should be very easy to configure it to be in the way you want it to be. And it will display more info about the application, what does it do and what for. You can find more images here and the ground base document here . Join us at #raptor to know more about thsi wonderful project. DIGG

I have a question!

Hopefully in the next few days I should have a Usability test that I have been working on with Björn Balazs from apliki.de on the K3B icons in that study I will pose the same question I'm about to pose now. And hopefully a few more options, that will come from the feedback of this post. So the question is...... "Data cd" 1 or 2?.... 1 2 Don't think to hard, just fire the first thing that pops in your mind, that is the best way to judge a icon IMO..also if you have an better idea please share...I will try to include it in the usability test. P.S Ofcourse the numbers will have to be redone for each size and the document as well... Its one source file for each icon. meaning this one = 14 files 7 png's and 7 svgz's.

Air and KDE 4.3.

Air was the wallpaper we introduced in KDE 4.2, but that is just the beginning of something larger. Air is supposed to be different than what Oxygen is, something that tries to appeal to a user base looking for a more "sexy" experience than Oxygen (yeah I know you are out there :) ), but to still have the capability of merging nicely with what we have now. The first thing we started working on was a Plasma theme. Plasma, with it's immense plasticity and a fantastic coder team, allows us to try to push for new ideas. Another extremely cool thing about Plasma is it's ability to become anything you want it to be. So a user in KDE 4.3 might have a desktop that looks like this, if that is his wish, without having to use external software: (click for fullscreen mode) This is an example of how simple one can make a desktop in the 4.3 Plasma once we all manage to get all of our plans working. The new systray speck will help, the work being done on the task bar will allow you ...
