I oxygen-ified the colors.  The only one that isn't in the oxygen palette is

I didn't made it, and i know it is something hard to follow a palette color,
but this is a must to keep the harmony between apps. And even with a
palette, we must try to keep the original color saturation, hue, ...


I could create the proper beige using only the oxygen

no we musn't  create others colors by mixing ones, we must use the originals
one. I know theses rules are limiting the artistic's freedom (yours like
mine), but kmine is not a single app, it's only a part of a bigger project,
KDE,  and if every apps is using its own colors,  KDE will be a mess for the
eyes. This is the same things for lights and shaddows position (something to
fix too, i think i will do after). On Oxygen, light is comming from the
top-right.

Also, I like my blue better than the closest oxygen

maybe, but that not the point i fear ;)

Lol .

I'm not quite sure what you mean by this.  I made green squares for the

I mean green cubes.

They have certainly been around for a long time, though they are still being

I mean for computer. I'm not in the god's minds, but I think LCD type
letters will be removed everywhere on KDE (clock, ...). You could work for
nothing, even if i'd like to see what you have in mind.
