Reminder: Using KNewStuff in Kstars for sharing links and photos

[Jeremy Whiting]

Vijay,

Sure, http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials#Get_Hot_New_Stuff
has a few tutorials about using it for download and upload.

Some applications that use it are, KAnagram, KHangman, Plasma
wallpaper containment settings, colors kcm, and many others.

BR,
Jeremy
