Hi all,
IMHO the theme it is not so bad.
Indeed there are other themes, but this one has to be installed.
By the way, what plasma the are you using in the screenshot?
Thank you for sharing your work.
Sorry, but Windows 8's flat, bland ugly colors are a huge step backward for the sake of consuming a fraction less CPU on limited tablets. Windows 8 looks like it was designed by Fisher-Price. No thank you. I like my textures, subtle shading, beautiful transparency and smoothe animations.
Yes, I know that. I personally prefer the default theme of KDE, but lots of sites are changing their layout to fit the Windows theme. I just wanted to try this way a little.

I like themes like these, that are clear and very defined lines for all the elements.
