Description: If you like dark themes, you may like this one. I find it easier to focus on the work at hand when the surrounding area is black and my workspace white. If you like the buttons, scroll bars, etc, they're from the Domino KDE theme style. The start menu is done with KBFX. The buttons in dolphin are standard in KDE, just normal multimedia play buttons. The whole theme, in general, was mostly inspired by the Kore suite. This theme may require tweaking depending on other themes such as your firefox theme or domino color scheme. Wallpaper can be found here: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=5OI6AG0H
My desktop is also inspired by Vista since I'm a new linux convert, it's more familiar and I find a long taskbar more efficient with work and screen real estate than a taller OSX-like dock. And also to show you, if you want it, KDE can look any bit like Vista and much better with a lot more customization for looks and efficiency to suit your taste and work habit.
Great looking theme, but all I get is this when I try to download the theme :-(

If right click save as won't work, you can copy all the stuff you just posted into a standard text file, save it, rename it blackened.kcsrc and then import it to kcontrol appearance&themes color schemes section.
You'll notice also, it will be named Kore in the menu, I forgot to rename it. I'll upload a new one. But as you can tell, this is a variation of the Kore color scheme but I didn't like the all black. With all black there is hardly any contrast. So I changed the background, text, highlight, etc to be more readable on a white background.

If that is the case, and you're using firefox, just go to 'File', 'Save Page As..." and it should auto name it as blackened.ksrc.
