Is there guide so that I can customize KDE like this / Note : I am no KDE user so be gentle

I don't see anything special there. Just Compiz, KDE themes, amarok theme and the bottom panel is auto expand mode I think.

Tech_Wiz · 18-01-2008, 01:54 PM

y Nothing special in it. Main part is to get a good wall paper. Others just compiz and themes stuff.

As a matter of fact KDE is more configurable than GNOME. The MacMenu (top menu on panel) is available directly in KDE. The themes add to the overall look. Seems more like a good compilation of themes. Nothing special. Simplicity makes things good

theme looks fine

Can you tell me how to add Mac Menu and how to resize lower panel like thta .I am a KDE n00b

btw isn't these screenies have this http://kdemod.ath.cx/
Also is there a way to install KDe mod in any other distros

coolpcguy · 19-01-2008, 11:15 AM

^ Apparently not. Even the building from sources is aimed exclusively at Arch

infra_red_dude · 20-01-2008, 02:29 PM

I don't use KDE so you'd be better off seeking help elsewhere. However what I do know is that you don't need to hack anything to get the MacMenu bar. Its simple to get it.

Also the panel resize, just set it to auto resize.
