Description: Oxygen Blue Air KDM Theme PJ Singh, 2009-06-19
This is a theme for KDM that uses the Air background with the Oxygen widget/plasma style. The colors are standard KDE 4.2 blue colors, instead of the black Oxygen widget/plasma colors. This theme also allows you to set a properly scaled KDM background, instead of the standard KDM background that appears stretched (or squashed) on some resolutions.
This theme has been tested on Kubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Jackalope.
