SUPER Look and Feel

Current Look and Feel is SUSE 10.0 standard

We are planning to have the following in SLICK

• Baghira WIndow Style
• All animations on. Drop shadow and menu translucency on
• Background?
• Bitstream Free TT fonts as main fonts
• Fix up Firefox to use decent fonts
• Plastik Window decorations

Themes

KDE

+ kde window decorations + kde styles + gtk2 styles

baghira, plastik, mkultra are my personal favourite window decorations on KDE: ‑ ‑ http://linux01.gwdg.de/~pbleser/rpm-navigation.php?cat=Themes-KDE3/mkultra/ ‑ ‑ http://linux01.gwdg.de/~pbleser/rpm-navigation.php?cat=Themes-KDE3/baghira/

As for KDE styles, plastik is consistent, compact, nice on the eyes. But baghira's brushed metal is for that extra macosx‑ish look&feel. (and the whole (thin)keramik stuff is bloated and takes too much space for decorations)

Gnome

For GNOME/GTK2, clearlooks is the clear winner. Awesome. I'd use it for KDE if there was a port. ‑ ‑ http://clearlooks.sourceforge.net/ ‑ ‑ http://linux01.gwdg.de/~pbleser/rpm-navigation.php?cat=Themes-GTK2/gtk2-clearlooks/ ‑ ‑ part of the Clearlooks variants are already included in 10.0

I prefer this variant, clearlooks‑cleaneyes: http://gnomelook.org/content/show.php?content=23679

(Note: I think clearlooks is the default theme for GNOME 2.12)

On the last screenshot: that nifty transparent taskbar is "mtaskbar": http://linux01.gwdg.de/~pbleser/rpm-navigation.php?cat=Utilities/mtaskbar

Most backgrounds are from deviantart.com's minimalistic wallpaper section:

 http://browse.deviantart.com/wallpaper/minimalistic/
 (a lot of crap, but also some excellent wallpapers here and then)

or from Mandolux:

or from kde‑look.org (seldom):

 http://kde-look.org

or from gnome‑look.org (rare, a lot of ubuntu/debian/gnome wallpapers there):

 http://gnome-look.org

or from Spymac, where the wallpaper gallery is unfortunately down since a few months.

Especially for those who think that Linux is still text based.

Now I also give them the following links to show how textbase Linux is: http://www.rasterman.com/files/e17_movie-00.avi http://www.rasterman.com/files/e17_movie-01.avi http://www.rasterman.com/files/e17_movie-02.avi http://www.rasterman.com/files/e17_movie-03.avi
