Wallpapers KDE Plasma by VladUA 2 comments

The consistency of the coloring with both main elements really make this photo work :)

The LP (light painting) effect is very good.

I am at the early stage of experimenting with LP, but have drawn inspiration from this photo.

Hope to see more like this :)

Rose And Candle

Wallpaper Other by hostmaster2 2 comments

Thank you Vlad :)

It is one of my better candle compositions. I uploaded some others here, which are not so good in comparison.

And thank you for the links. Light Painting is something I have only just started venturing into.. it is interesting the results that can be achieved. When I do have something good, I will post them.

All the best. - Nov 05 2013

Showcase

Wallpaper Other by tasmaniandiablo 4 comments

This is excellent work.

Looking back to your very first upload here, the quality stands out.

I read one of your comments, dated April 22 2008. In that, you said "I'm not a professional. I buy a camera only a 3 month ago. I'm want to be a good photographer."

You succeeded 8))

Even though I am also a Photographer, I see your as great inspiration.

It will be good to see more 8)) - Oct 08 2013

Room for improvement... a lot of it!

You can start by dropping the PINK scroll bars, which seem to feature in your other themes.

Having renamed the folder inside the archive to correct name, I can say the theme looks very good.

I have sent you link to download the archive with the renamed folder contained.

Karamba & Superkaramba by hostmaster2 18 comments

Since I checked in on this page. Due to work commits elsewhere, I have not had much time to do any updates to this or even start work on the Plasma Widget version.

I have not forgotten... and will try to find time.

In the meantime, many thanks to those who downloaded. Almost 900 at the time of posting. I really did not think it would sell so well (joking) =)

Many Thanks - Feb 17 2010

Have been very busy with work and looking at other projects for future.

I will be making an update for this version soon. Also, a new version to compliment jmtodaro's latest theme, of the same name.

KplasMon - System Monitor

Karamba & Superkaramba by hostmaster2 18 comments

Sure, no problem =)

You can download the wallpaper from:

http://www.kde-look.org/CONTENT/content-files/97625-the_bay-1600x1200.jpg

However, as the file name indicates, it is only 1600x1200. I had a look elsewhere to see if could find a larger version for you, but no luck. - Sep 08 2009

KplasMon - System Monitor

Karamba & Superkaramba by hostmaster2 18 comments

You are correct in that, many do have problems with sensors. It was only a last minute decision to try and write in a CPU Temp monitor, prior to going public... maybe that was a bad move, given that the whole idea was to, make it compatible with a broader range of systems =(

Still, I will endeavour to solve the problem. Maybe you could PM me the spec of your system?. The reason I ask, is that its maybe down to how the monitor script calls on lm-sensors and the info being thrown back... for example, there are plus of ten ways I could call on lm-sensors from a script. And, the one being used currently, is not it =D

Again, thank you for your feedback =)

Plasma Color Schemes by niky45 6 comments

I have commented on a previous color theme, late August... liked it very much.

So, same again. I must say, that I also like the trend that your themes follow, in that they are not too bright... kind on the eyes =)

Keep up the great work. - Sep 06 2009

Plasma Color Schemes by niky45 2 comments

though, its likely premature to mention, given the posting date, but you seem to be getting down-voted already. Some have a habit of voting-down purely out of dislike for dark themes, rather than voting for the effort you put into the work. Thats very sad...

Personally, I like it =)

Been a while since I used Gkrellm, so I downloaded it, along with the many themes, and installed it...

Mmmm, well, I see what you mean.

KplasMon - System Monitor

Karamba & Superkaramba by hostmaster2 18 comments

Thank you... The Plasma is taking a while to write due to work commits, and trying to maintain other projects.

I also need to ensure that it will work on all variants of KDE4, before I release it problem free. An old habit of mine =)

BTW.. I thought Gkrellm was still available in the repositories... - Aug 10 2009

Tragedy Theme For deKorator

deKorator Themes by hostmaster2 3 comments

They sure do =)

Glad you like it. I hoped to capture your theme, as closely as possible. However, deciding the design of buttons was an issue, that is, until I looked at the pager =)

I have always loved this theme, and the idea of having windeco to match up exactly, had been eating away at me for a while...

Using deKorator, only came about due to a fairly recent version for KDE4 becoming available... plus, I noted elsewhere, that some users are having problems using the Aurorae Engine, for whatever reason.

Milky Suite (aka Milky Air)

QtCurve by Goamaus 24 comments

Above Post, should read (without the typos) :P

I agree with Kallube... you should release this in order to get, a true evaluation of usability, by a broad range of system set-ups.

It does look very good though. If I may suggest, that you try and recreate the window theme for use with other theme engines... deKorator for example, which is easy, and has a huge user base. Just an idea, as it will increase the amount of users of your theme... some users are not able, yet, to run Aurorae.

Look forward to seeing your theme go live =) - Aug 03 2009

KplasMon - System Monitor

Karamba & Superkaramba by hostmaster2 18 comments

You are right... there simply are not enough good plasmas around. And, as you know, to run a decent monitor can put further demand on the system, using karamba and Plasma Desktop. A trade off.

However, I am working on a plasma widget at the moment. With any luck, it should resemble the karamba widget, but without the demand :) - Jul 28 2009
