 I would use the black theme as default for the next suse release. Green +
 Black really looks slick, professional and original.
 I am new here but have experience with design and want to help out.
 I saw the black theme in SUSE on random sites. Is it one of the the KDE
 themes or did someone customly develop it?
 Can we use it as a template to work on for the upcoming KDE4 release?
