The truth hurts.

Thats what I have discovered the last days over what wallpaper should we remove from KDE to make room for the new ones.
Nobody loves my vector sunset. Snif snif, don't get it it has no bubbles nor is it black it as a bit but ist not to much, and now its going away, and im going to cry :).... OO cruel cruel world.
And now I have to say goodbye to my all time favorite best wallpaper.

Vector sunset, we had some fun times didnt we ? :)
P.S. never fear all of the ones we remove will be just moved to KDE artwork ;)

we wont let you die my precious. nhaahahhahaha, my prechioussss :)

Don't worry!

Maybe the colours remember the Gnome Desktop.

Good job!

Well, I like that wallpaper... It's good that it'll be on kdeartwork.

A little bit offtopic but I'll ask anyway...:) I am using KDE trunk and I haven't seen those beautiful kmix icons you made on kmix yet , although they are on Oxygen... what happened? They must be there for 4.3 :)

Keep up the excellent work!

Agreed, it's the colors. Confirmation that Ubuntu's browness is indefensible.

Don't you have enough making all other icons sets and plasma themes look like poor noob attempts? ;-)

I've never used it because I stick to a few wallpapers I really love, but that's one of the KDE wallpapers that really stood out for me. Must be my zen side showing :)

I didn't see it before, and I really like it, but if I were going to put a sunset as my desktop wallpaper, probably I would choose a *real* one. In my opinion, vector graphics are good for many applications aimed at synthesizing (icons, cartoons...), but to express or transmit emotions nobody can beat the subtle nuances of a real image.

Thank you very much for your work!

I find real images more relaxing than computer-made ones.

To me the wallpaper should be a window to the real world, with lots of nature.
It's much the same thing as a worker putting photos of his wife/kids in the workplace. They help to lessen the pain of work.

Untrue! Vector Sunset is great, and one of the few KDE wallpapers that I was able to put up with for a longer time.

The Sunset is going away, a tear will be shed.

Could you post a full version of the wallpaper

This would be very cool

Good wallpaper, but yeah, probably doesn't fit in with KDE schema. Didn't see it in KDE 4.2 though, hmm.

Well, at least you are not being arrogant and a douchefag as Aaron Seigo was/is.

How many times did we told him to add the ability to hide the cashew and he replied that he wont, that just shows that he wont listen to the users, and it's really disrespectful.

You at least show that you hear the users and that's a good thing.

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 ...
