It's a 256px^2 png meant to be used as a brushed metal background for a future windec. The screen shot shows an empty html file in konqueror that uses it as a background tile. In the background is a screenshot of a real iTunes window for your comparison. Enjoy!

0.2 - See the second screenshot. The dimensions of the tile are now 1024x64, which gives 65536 px total (exactly the same as 256^2) This allows me to simulate a lighting effect. Check out the included html file. I'm using CSS to make it so the background image is always centered, no matter how you resize the window. Is there a way to do this in KDE windecs, as well?

the baghira windeco allready has this.
set deco style to brushed metal (though the gradient is only 512px wide)

so obviously yes: it is possible

QT does (afaik) not allow to set functions as brush (the brush is used to paint the widgets backgrounds)
So the brush is static... sorry.

Have I understood correctly what is going on here - the image will be the window background?

2. translucent pixmaps would lead to a completely black area, as qt/xfree cannot (due to xfree) handle the alpha channel this way (you wouldn't get a translucent window by this anyway, as every widget would draw it and you'd partially loose translucency - but that's illusionary with x anyway)
but this brush will be an option in one of the next (ok, the next) baghira release
yes.
