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 ...
KDE 4.0 was just released today, Congrats to us all :) (400 pixel banner version here for people with small blog's :P)

Raptor will definitely rock! ;)
The "Recently Used" icon is also a crap.
that's the only ones that i didn't like ant that i can remember now.
You have done a great work.
Second, the icons are awesome! The leave, recently used, logout and other icons I can´t remember now are even BETTER than before! For those who didn´t like it, open the svg and take a look.. it´s awesome! And the colours to make them visually diferen t is VERY VERY important.
Third, what about oxygen style Nuno? Aren´t you going to make any changes on that? (like some animation, bring back the old tab style that was REAAAALLY awesome).
Well, I only have to thank you and the other designs (and developers)
THANK YOU VERY MUCH! I will help KDE project in the future, now, I just can´t, but... it´s very exciting the work you´ve all been done!

That's not just me that didn't like that icons.
I really liked the ones used in beta versions.
Amazing work. You are an inspiration to me and to all of my students. Each of you, artists, developers, translators, is making a huge difference in the lives of thousands of our students and I want to thank you for it.
THANK YOU.
Please give some love to the awesome progress bars and the menus from your mocks, too!
Congrats, it's your big day
From screenshots, I notice the highlight color is blue again. What happened to the yellow idea, out of curiosity?
Icons are amazing and sound theme is calming. Thanks for your amazing work! Keep up!
