OK, this is the theme I was talking about... The dark shouldn't
conflict with documents and web-sites because only the panels and
window titles would be dark, the rest will be in bright tones slightly
modified.

I also like this concept look, maybe even better than the previous
one, but I am not sure what's the status of this theme.

you should post a screenshot so i know what you mean but i don't think the
default theme should use dark colors i find dark themes because i find dark
themes tend to clash with documents and websites
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?

I vote for that one too. Maybe changing to another KDE4-theme (black one)
so there is more contrast at the desktop. Let's not change too much now
openSUSE 11.0 seems to be a blast outside.
Maybe we can use the same 'theme-structure' in all decimals of a number.
So 11.0 - 11.3 have a bit of the same look. Another option is to switch
to some more photorealistic theme. I will never forget this one:

I really think we should stick with the SUSE green and Gray like
openSUSE 11.0, why ruin a good thing, lets just make it better. Maybe
add more contrasts to the colors so they are more eye poping, and the
same goes with KDE4 you could really see a difference using the sharpen
effect with Kwin4 effects turned on. ;) my .02 cent -Cameron

I do personally like the theme you created, I don't know how I would

Thanks! I somewhat agree that I'm not sure I'd use it everyday in
its current incarnation. The first picture I posted (concept.png)
doesn't necessarily match the openSUSE colors used on the wiki, the
installer, etc. Yet the pallet isn't as bright and jarring.
Personally I prefer the first one, but I've been trying to create
something that matches the branding of openSUSE better that is at the
same time livable.
Of the concepts, do people prefer the first one, or one of the latter
two? They represent very different directions to go in.
As far as minor details I've been waffling a bit with having the
highlighted/selected text as gold on green. I like gold as a
highlight color. In the concepts you can see me using gold as a
highlight, and in other places just using plain white. What do you
guys think about the use of a little spot gold for highlight?
Lastly, what do you guys think about the off-white selected
background color? Do you prefer just a plain white?
Thanks for your feedback and input!
