KDE look and feel

I think many people expect significant improvements in KDE4
look and
feel. I dont mean plasma or other base concepts of next KDE
generation, but simple graphic design of UI. If we'll look
some
mockups from kde-look.org (for example
http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php/Kde4+
Mockup?content=28476)
that we'll see significant differences in the best party
unlike
standart KDE3 design. Whether development of such UI design
is
planned? Maybe not for 4.0 but for other 4.x release? I
would like to
participate in developing of such UI design, considering,
that I have
some experience in C++/Qt development.

Well, there are several things on that screenshot. First, the upper bar, menu etc - that's plasma, allright. And the application could be dolphin. Third there's the theme. What is most imporant for you - you can work on that... You can create the menu thing for plasma, or work on dolphin for the filebrowser app. And of course the theme could use help
 
BTW lovely you want to help

I would like to work on style/theme and maybe additional
widgets which
are absent in a base Qt toolkit. In which mailing list
developing of
style and basic look and feel is discussing?

Have a look at kde-artists.org and kde-artistskde.org">kde-artistskde.org and ask there. They must know about the style

For new widgets, I think it's too late for adding new stuff for KDE 4 (we're almost in freeze), but those would normally be needed to prove themselves in apps first anyway. So if you have some cool ideas, find an application which could use the widget, and send a patch. As soon as several apps use the widget, bugs are found and shaken out, and the API has matured, it can be added to KDElibs (and in time, the Trolls might want to add it to Qt).

s/KDE 4/KDE 4.0/

please don't confuse those two. Its perfectly possible to
add new
classes and hence new widgets later on to kdelibs (for 4.x,
x>0)

Ok! Thanks! But now I would like to concentrate on
style/theme subject.
