Guys, I stumbled into creating 2 cool looking dark kde4 themes while tweaking an existing theme so I thought I would pass them along for any others that like dark themes. BlueGold color-theme: http://www.3111skyline.com/download/dt/kde4/color-schemes/DcrBlueGold.colors screenshot: http://www.3111skyline.com/download/ss/kde4/DcrBlueGold.jpg BlackGold color-theme: http://www.3111skyline.com/download/dt/kde4/color-schemes/DcrBlackGold.color... screenshot: http://www.3111skyline.com/download/ss/kde4/DcrBlackGold.jpg (note: the screenshots were from within E16) For the corresponding dark colors for all your kde4 editors (kwrite, kate, quanta), just add the following to your ~/.kde4/share/config/kateschemarc: [kate-kwrite-dark] Color Background=26,26,26 Color Highlighted Bracket=228,180,94 Color Highlighted Line=36,36,36 Color Icon Bar=113,113,112 Color Line Number=167,167,167 Color MarkType1=228,180,94 Color MarkType2=255,0,0 Color MarkType3=255,255,0 Color MarkType4=255,0,255 Color MarkType5=160,160,164 Color MarkType6=0,255,0 Color MarkType7=255,0,0 Color Selection=47,87,133 Color Tab Marker=115,115,115 Color Template Background=204,204,204 Color Template Editable Placeholder=204,255,204 Color Template Focused Editable Placeholder=102,255,102 Color Template Not Editable Placeholder=255,204,204 Color Word Wrap Marker=76,76,76 Font=DejaVu Sans Mono,8,-1,5,50,0,0,0,0,0 then in an editor, choose Settings -> Configure Editor -> Fonts & Colors and then change the "Schema:" (at the top) and the "Default schema for Kate/Kwrite:" (at the bottom) and the editor window color will not complement the dark theme.
