ALERT Linux GUI's Steal visuals from SUN and CDE and MOTIF umm not native!!!! hello????? (oh wait those are only multimillion dollar BUSINESS oriented interfaces and that is ok--the consumer OS'S are off limits for visuals) *smacks forehead* now I get it!!!!
....OK you linux AB"users" make me ill all you do is bitch and moan if anything is derivative of microsoft...Do you stop to think for one second that you would not have a PC at all were it not for CrApple and Microslop? they CREATED a revolution! they made the PC easy to use (gui) not EVERYONE wants to be a commandline commander...hmm do you think that maybe that is why there are so many guis? HMMM oh wait you dont think first you just spout off your type exists in all every forum and YOU opinion is of course thet right one RIGHT F.O.A.D
you know why cars come in colors other that black since the first model T rolled off the assembly line because people wanted it---You use the WEB right well thgat is because there was a demand for graphics for internet users do YOU brouws the web with lynx???? I think not or you would not B here would U---it is a visual that appeals to people if you dont like it then be cordial and shut your pie whole if you dont have a helpful opinion it is a waste of everyone's time...BTW I think it looks OK but I already boot to XP/Win2k/NT4.0/98/ME/BeOS/RH 8.0/Mandrake 9.0/and slack SO I know of what I speak DO you?
BOTTOM LINE TO EACH HIS OWN I FOR ONE DONT WANT TO EAT MCDONALD'S EVERY DAY I LIKE BURGURKING ONCE IN A WHILE..............
Who cares a fucking GUI is a GUI and all GUI's look the same OMHO. If you got a problem with a GUI Dont use any of them cause they all look the same.They all have the PANEL the BACKGROUND the ICONS(on some).Who cares if it's based on windows or the MAC they're all the same.
Maybe it is also the fact that Linux is a better OS but some like the look of the two major platforms. Instead of breaking down every newcomer or playing the Linux elite role maybe some of these "converts" as you like to call them would feel allot more comfortable in the KDE community and start to break out new and original material. Not everyone is gooing to make a Keramik or a liquid on the first attempt.
Am i the only one who has noticed the
KDE Community's attempt the copy MacOS and Windows GUIs? WHY? BECAUSE LINUX HAS ONLY OUTDATED GUIS!!! KDE is pathetic compared to Windoze and OSX GUIs, something needs to be done fast, or we will fall so far behind that Linux will never be a viable desktop solution
Like the other poster it was lots of fun to read this comment by you.
But just like you i think we wave to many
Windows converts playing with the gimp.
The reason we see so many Windows and MacOS
clone themes for Linux is *not* because of
an inferior GUI system for Linux. It makes
the new (and not-so-new) converts from other
Operating Systems feel more at ease in their
new surroundings. And so what? If it helps you
get familiar with the KDE desktop, then is it
not a good thing? The important thing it that
KDE is safe, powerful, and stable. The look
is completely irrelevant when considering
the relative merits of the system.
Anyone who comes to kdelook.org should know
that the look of a theme (good or bad) doesn't
change how well KDE works. We are all here
(Windows wannabes and GNU zealots) for the
same reason. To support KDE!
Think that at Redmond and at Cupertino, Microsoft and Apple have people warking all the day on the GUI, or they pay some people for it. For example, think on the beautiful icon set of XP. It was done by the Iconfactory group, in mor then 4 months!!! (http://design.iconfactory.com/pages/winicon/windowxp.html)
Well, sometimes we have someone payed for the kde-GUI, like Everaldo, payed by Conectiva for creating his excellent Liquid set. But think that most of the people at kde-look are not professionals, they just do it for fun, and *not* alawys have great design skills!
So, maybe i future we're going to create something innovative, maybe it's wrong to just copy MacOSX and WindowsXP, but maybe that's a starting point.
Another thing: it's easy to say "nothing new here", but propose something new made by you!!!!
First off, most of the original DOS commands existed in Unix long before Bill Gates ever tinkered with a computer. Secondly, not only has M$ ripped off the Mac over the years, but Unix as well for the Windows GUI. Where do you think the idea of the taskbar came from? The Unix dock! Now, Mac has become a Unix based OS, and MS continues to rip others off, claiming that they innovate. What a joke! You deserve Windoze...

sorry its like 2 am here and I did not proofread it (that'll teach me not to type in the dark LOL)
thanks, i like this very much. so it looks like xp; big deal. i've got mandrake 9 and i can't get Qinx working so i am more than happy to use this :)

Good work in my opinion. I like it, clean and peaceful. Window decoration is really for my taste but otherwise good work. Style is clean and nice :-)
I mean window decoration is NOT really my taste :P

everaldo's work is called "crystal", not "liquid". you are mistaking him with mosfet.
