I'm running KDE 3.1 ontop of Gentoo
The wallpaper was found here
Window decoration is Plastik
On the right is Liquid Weather and Glas-news (modified)
Above is Slickbar (heavily modified)
I switched clock fonts cuz I couldn't read the original. The XMMS panel has been chopped down and I wrote a function that scrolls the title. It's a pretty slow and choppy scroll because I had to do it by cutting out a letter at a time. Any idea how to do smooth scrolling?
The Stats panel next to XMMS was custom built and pulls its info form LM-Sensors.
There are two "QuickLaunch" panels because the first one isn't a QuickLaunch. I built another panel that would do custom popup menus. All you have to do is add a folder and fill it with desktop config files and the panel will create a custom popup menu that you can use to run whatever's in the folder it'll handle as many as you can create.
If anyone's interested I'll post the code for it.
I think that's it. I use a lot of shortcut keys so I don't need many controls. I also really like clean looks.. so sexy
)So that's it.. Lemme know what you think.

what is the news theme on the right? could you post a download for it...its great.
Posted as per your request here: http://kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=10495 enjoy :o)
nice... how did you get rid of kicker?
Slickbar has an option to hide the kicker.
What do you use shortcut keys for? If it's for applications.. can I suggest trying out iLaunch? It groups all your needed apps into a wheel mouse scrolling single icon. Still clean enough for you desktop.
Most of the keys are for XMMS control or opening apps that I use constantly (mozilla, e-mail, terminal, kate) I also try to keep my fingers on the keyboard as much as possible. It's my favorite way to navigate. Thanks for the suggestion though!
I use xmms, evolution, aterm, kate, and a few others.. and it works just great if you have a wheel mouse. Only one icon with all that access while you scroll your wheel. Plus drop files onto it and it launches them. -p0z3r
