theme mixing

[Pedro Rosado]

Hi there,


I don't know if this is the right place, but I wanted to suggest something.

KDE is by far the most modern and efficient desktop I've came to know (not
dissing all the others), but regarding customization it's falling a little
behind. Compared to gnome-look org, KDE look feels abandoned and there
aren't many themes available at all, most are not even online anymore (host
site doesn't have the file anymore). Most themes work like a charm on
plasma 5, it's not like gnome that breaks a theme everytime it's updated.

So, could the kde development theme  give end users a tool to combine or
make their own themes with a user friendly interface? I've tried myself to
make a kwin theme - only found despair and wasted time looking inside svg
files (I'm an end user, not an IT guy :c  )
Also, it would be nice to have all those themes shared if you want to, so
that the whole community can use them. Instead of searching themes on the
settings (that most times doesn't work because the files aren't hosted
anymore at kde look.org), users could have this "customization" tool that
allows users to search and create themes and share them into a repo or
github so that anyone can find them and use them, independent of distro (as
long as you are using kde)

Summary:
- Easy tool to make kwin and desktop themes for kde
- Able to share and download the themes from the desktop app
- kde kicks ass
