You obviously see the reason - scalability - but you seem to be making to erroneous assumptions:
- Because you yourself don't know how, there isn't a way
- You expect to use the same tools as before.
No, there are plenty of vector graphics tools. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Linux_vector_graphics_software I like Inkscape and Inkscape can import and display bitmap images,so if you can convert your PNG to BMP ...
Actually, you can import the png directly to inkscape, hit save, and voila - a vector graphic - (.svg) file. Probably best to adjust the background size before saving though, File -> Document Properties ->Fit Page to Selection. Save.
Saying that the KDE4 developers "don't care a fig" for users is not going to endear you to them.
True, for what it's worth, here's at least one vote that says kde4 is outstanding. Really looking forward to 4.5. Hope the balance of the quirks are worked out with the different mouse !
