Re: Desktop look...

I'd agree with you, but I'd also like to have scalable icons in KDE. It's one of the things OSX has that I wish I had under kde. Hell, a scalable kicker would rock!

so please submit a patch.
i am busy makeing it possible to script KDE applications with any scripting language you chose. i think IBM/HP and compaq want that a little bit more than icons that grow and shrink. i think what tacket, qwertz and other provide is adiquate.

i would not trade dirk and davids work on KHTML for any eyecandy no matter what it does for me.

    Amen!

    So far as scaleable icons, when I have added new ones in manually (stuff only to show up on my desktop) I usually only make one big one (48x48). From what I'm seeing here, they scale quite nicely already. No, it's not the super spiffy kind of scaling you'd get with vectored graphics... so?

    As a user, I want rock solid KHTML, Javascript, improvements to the Address book, better Palm integration, performance boosts. I want, I want, I want! :) These are the make and break points of KDE. Besides, I happen to strongly prefer Liquid to Aqua after using both. KDE already looks very very sweet!

    As much as I'm looking forward to seeing KDE3, what I've got now is working pretty nicely. Take your time, miss some promised release dates, and do us all proud! You KDE developer types have gotten us all used to them kinds of things, especially the proud part.
