I won't miss the chance to be the first commenter :-) This looks really great.

Only one thing disturbs me a bit: The spacing between the words in the subtitle (The - social - semantic - desktop) seems a bit wide (Nepomuk is about *connecting* information, after all =) Maybe the subtitle font should just be a bit bigger.

These are just my two cents, everything else looks really awesome!

Actually I prefer the monochrome version - for some reason the colors (specially yellow/purple, I guess) doesn't appeal me.

I think a red orb would fit very well.

I’d vote for increasing the subtitle font size a TINY bit and increasing the inter-letter spacing a TINY bit, too. But then, I’m too lazy to test how that would look myself right now, so it might actually be horrible. :)

It would be really nice to have a plasmoid based on the logo - clicking one orb could make the rest recede, and more little orbs extend for, e.g., your favourite contacts. Is anyone planning anything like this?

Are svg files coming & under what license have these logos been released under?

I think they are very original and beautiful. The idea of the plasmoid is really good!

Thanks for your great job!

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 ...

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...
