Thing In Space

Wallpaper Other by leinir

Thank you very much :) It's a really old thing that i had, frankly, forgotten i'd done... Looking at it now, i remember doing it, just playing around, and having pretty much that same reaction - it was super simple, but something about it just seemed to work, so thought others might like it as well :) - Jan 08 2019

This is not a comic, though, this is an application... You might want to move this to a more suitable category, thank you :) - Jun 06 2018
Atheist Quote Plasmoid

Plasma 4 Extensions by patcito 31 comments

The plasmoid seems a little bit rough - it spawns at the wrong size (you have to resize it a bit so that the text box fits), and the bottom of it once resized ends up being empty space. It might be worth requesting a specific size, though i cannot remember how to do that of course - #plasma on freenode will surely help with that one :) Thanks for sharing, though, it is now sitting on my desktop looking all atheistish - nicely done :) - Jul 20 2009
QuickLauncher Applet

Plasma 4 Extensions by svenstorp 130 comments

Have you got this in KDE's playground svn yet? And if not, whyyy? Go go go, it's a very requested feature, after all, your contribution would be welcome i'm sure ;) - Apr 02 2008

plasma-runner

Plasma 4 Extensions by dos1 16 comments

That is *exactly* the right answer, well done! ;) i would suggest dropping by the plasma IRC channel on Freenode and talk your options over with the people there - as i understand it, you should find it extremely easy to implement krunner support into this :) - Feb 13 2008
Clean

KDM3 Themes by simoo 18 comments

It does indeed look very pretty :)

One might suggest you remove some of the borders, specifically the three edges around username, password and the userlist. As you've likely noticed, the move towards removing lines in KDE is proceeding at pace, and well... just a hint, really :) - Feb 11 2008
plasma-runner

Plasma 4 Extensions by dos1 16 comments

Well, if that is to happen, you'd likely want to do something about the name (or the featureset) as, unless i'm much mistaken, this isn't actually a mini-KRunner... :) You know the searchy-contexty-monster-launcher thing in KDE4 :) - Feb 11 2008
Amarok Black Transp Icon

Icon Sub-Sets by CLEARview 6 comments

Please try and go into Amarok, Settings -> Configure Amarok... -> Appearance. Click on Download Styles and go to Latest. Now select your item and click install. What happens? :) Please, this is not an Amarok Context Browser Theme, move it to some other category, if you would be so kind :) - Jan 17 2008
Hey, nifty concept *giggles* how 'bout an ArkLinux one? :) http://www.arklinux.org/content/en/Linking+To+Us - Oct 03 2007
K4 Theme Package

Various KDE 1.-4. Styles by Yaccin 41 comments

Oh no, it is much simpler than that - KDE 4 will have an entirely new and fresh look, and the thing is, the look is not solidified yet (as recent discussions and work on the look of the Oxygen style shows), because such interesting considerations as usability and accessibility are being taken... So it's simply an attempt at making sure that KDE 4 will /have/ a fresh, new look when it comes out ;)

There's also the small problem of language barrier - the "public relations" person in the oxygen team suffers greatly from not quite grasping some of the intricacies of the English language, and as such has managed to spark controversy and arguments simply by making a comment where he essentially agrees with everybody, but still manages to get it said in a way so that he comes across as being in opposition to everybody else (witness discussions on the kde core devel mailing list in the month of August).

Hope this has made the situation a little more clear :) - Sep 24 2007
Tasty Menu

Various KDE 1.-4. Improvements by mart 499 comments

Well, the trick with the menu system in KDE 4 is that it'll be all plasmaish - because of the simplicity of TastyMenu, it ought to be relatively simple to implement the features from Tasty into a neat, little package of a Plasmoid :) It'll need re-implementation, but... things should be much simpler wrt that in KDE 4 :) - Aug 23 2007

openSUSE KDE Tweaks

Various KDE 1.-4. Improvements by bico 16 comments

While most of these seem sensible and fine (even while i don't particularly like Kickoff), there is one thing that really got me stumped:

"- Removed the "Get New Wallpapers" button from the Desktop Configuration Dialog, because it provides unfiltered access to images that are more and more shameless :-("

So... Censorship? Seriously, what's going on here? - May 30 2007

Fedora wallpaper

Wallpaper Other by havok 2 comments

While i'm not normally one to go with distro specific wallpapers of any sort (and i'm a member of a distro team! ;) ) this is rather nicely done :) One suggestion though - to avoid ruining your own work with artifacts, don't render it to jpeg :) You can see at the bottom of the logo what i mean... - Mar 24 2007
Visualization Tab ( for AmaroK)

Various Stuff by XzakiX 3 comments

Thanks for the idea, but... there are some rather intricate plans regarding visualisations in Amarok 2.0, so... wait a bit, and check it out when we get a little closer :) Rest assured, you are going to love this one *giggles* we're aiming for highest common denominator here - we want people to be happy :) - Mar 24 2007
Autotorrent

Amarok 1.x Scripts by xpaulbettsx 23 comments

On top of that, KTorrent is being hailed at the µTorrent for KDE (or is it the other way around? can't remember). Another possibility would be to enable the user to set it as an option in the script? :) - Feb 19 2007

You need to use a macro lens, or the mode on a digital camera called macro mode (my stupid cheap samsung one has it, http://leinir.dk/temp/gardenpics/pages/bee_4.jpg.jpg.html as you can see not the best quality, but for GBP 90 three years ago, i'll survive ;) ) - Feb 03 2007
pencil icon theme

Icon Sub-Sets by BastianBalthazarreBux 2 comments

Chroma did a programatically created sketch version of my Reinhardt icon set, which i thought was pretty nifty (as did some of my fellow students i showed it to :) ), but your effort here is really quite nifty too... Proper pencil drawings, with nice quality as well :)

FALF Player

Audio Apps by amdfanatyk 118 comments

You do realise that amarok does drag'n'drop quite nicely, right? ;) You can load those streams just fine by dragging the item into your current playlist. However, you did spike a thought in my feeble mind - it would be quite a funky thing to be able to load a subfolder of for example Radio Streams (say... Cool Streams) as a playlist. It'd then load each sub-item of that folder and suddenly you would have basically what you asked for :) (now to see wether it's actually anything resembling a good idea in practice ;) ) - Oct 10 2006
AmaroK Splash Screen Blue & White

KDE 3.x Splash Screens by theyetiman 9 comments

You, Mr Genious, have obviously not realised that this category is used internally by Amarok as a source for installing context browser themes from through the GNHS powered theme fetcher. So, please, put this in the Other category, as it is NOT a context browser theme. (also, apachelogger is a part of the Amarok team, so he really knows what he's talking about. Investigate who you call idiots before doing so, makes you look smart) - Oct 01 2006
Color Folder

Dolphin Service Menus by HessiJames 72 comments

However, deleting that file is what it does - it doesn't reset the folder colour information to default, which is what a message like that would mean when in the context it exists in :) Those files are used for other things than just sticking icons on the directories ;) - Aug 29 2006

Karamba & Superkaramba by MastahhCookie 4 comments

This is, unless i'm very much mistaken, not an Amarok theme :) Could you please fix that, as it breaks Amarok's get new themes thing quite nastily ;) - Aug 13 2006
The Reinhardt Icon Set

Icon Sub-Sets by leinir 85 comments

Ark Linux now has a package of the Reinhardt icon set in its repositories, or rather two: The PNG version (default) and the SVG version (marked as such). In case anyone not using Ark Linux wants to use them (they're really just generic packages, ought to install on any RPM based distribution with KDE installed in /usr) here you go:

ftp://arklinux.oregonstate.edu/pub/arklinux/apt/arklinux/dockyard-devel/en/i586/RPMS.os/icons-reinhardt-0.10-1ark.noarch.rpm
ftp://arklinux.oregonstate.edu/pub/arklinux/apt/arklinux/dockyard-devel/en/i586/RPMS.os/icons-reinhardt-svg-0.10-1ark.noarch.rpm

and the srpms:

Various KDE 1.-4. Improvements by oever 126 comments

That is not entirely true - Tenor, Solid, Plasma and Phonon are backend technologies, to be used by developers for fancy things. That they're good marketing names has to do with how Apple does things, i suspect: Aqua(Extreme), Core(Audio/Image) and so on are all marketing-friendly names, and that's not a bad thing.

The names, however, are moving over to a more interesting take on the K word - not doing the silly thing of taking random word and sticking a K into it somewhere obnoxious. Like you said yourself, Okular and Amarok are two applications that've gone away from the capitalisation thing, but Krita is still a k-word, it is just a proper k-word, meaning drawing chalk in Swedish. Kopete is the same, and has been that way for a long time.

This said, i think some things would do well to keep their KSomething names - like the large collections of applications, KWebDev and KOffice come to mind. Maybe of course KWebDev needs a bit of work, but since it's a collection of applications, it makes sense (to me) to have them chained together like that.

All of the above is because of how the K is a large part of KDE's corporate identity - we need the K to identify outselves! As a last random mind-blurp type note - how is this any different than all the WinSomethings and iSomethings floating around? - Aug 08 2006

Just a url for you there - http://bugs.kde.org/ :) This could be classed as either a wishlist item or a bug, whichever works for you i guess. Reporting problems in the correct place is always a good thing to do - kde-look is NOT the right place ;) - Jul 11 2006
[Idea] amarok with tabs

Various KDE 1.-4. Improvements by yll 9 comments

Why are you blurring everything out? This is a mockup, you are simply providing random song names and such, noone will sue you for that (not even the RIAA or whomever). Please reconsider reuploading your work without the blur, because as it is now, you are greatly limiting the use of the mockup by blurring out vital information.

That said, do try and join the #amarok channel on freenode to discuss the idea. And please note - we have had people suggest this for a VERY long time, without being able to do it Just Right(TM), which is something we really want (to do it right, that is). - Jul 11 2006
amaroK Video Capable [MockUp]

Video Apps by menace1982 46 comments

Quite simple - Amarok's core functionality depends greatly on metadata, and most videos simply do not support meta data well enough for that sort of use :) Sure, Quicktime and Theora (by way of the ogg container with oggtag) both do, but most videos are either mpeg or avi files, neither of which to my knowledge support any kind of tagging.

On top of that, we would really rather do one thing Right(TM) (you know, the old UNIX way of doing things) and simply make the best immersive music file player out there, in stead of a mediocre DE ;)

(a recurring joke amongst the devs while discussing new features is Amarok OS, something we obviously want to avoid) - Jul 03 2006

That's a lot of bad voting... and not a single comment to describe why he's getting them - very nice work people :P
