Honestly, I think a GTK3 port would be truly wonderful, because having Oxygen as the only truly cross-platform theme is a bit limiting. QtCurve, on the other hand, is so customizable, that it helps to make up for the lack of other available KDE themes. - May 12 2012

For now, I have switched to using the much-faster QtCurve, which can be made to look quite beautiful with a little work. Here is my current QtCurve theme: http://kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=138886. - Feb 18 2011

Here are a couple screenshots of my respin:

The changes:
* Lighter background image
* Alternate progress bar
* Using menus from an older CurveDomina version
* Scrollbars have faint stripes
* Lighter drop shadows (active windows' shadows are darker than those of inactive windows)
* Removed button transparency in exchange for greater definition
* Disabled "force alternate colors" to fix color glitch under Thunderbird.
* Small tweaks here and there - Jan 21 2011

I have a request: Would it be possible to have the window decoration blend with the background gradient specified in the style, rather than just the background color? Along with that, having the "Blend titlebar color into background color" option blend into the top color of the background gradient would be most helpful.
Thank you for making this theme engine! - Aug 31 2010

1) Oxygen: 70% shading
2) Oxygen-Cold: 50% shading (same as Oxy-Molecule 3.2)
3) Oxygen-Cold: 70% shading (same as Oxy-Molecule 3.1)
I hope this will appease everyone :)
This will be the plan unless someone comes up with a better (and feasible) idea.

Anyway, I decided to change the shading to 50% shading partly because the more extreme shading exaggerated the color mismatches on some GTK apps, and it just made blending in general more difficult.
The change was also partly out of preference. The shading at 70% looked too extreme to my eyes. I actually quite dislike the "Oxygen" color scheme, and "Oxygen-Cold" matches the Kubuntu colors more closely. More importantly to me, using Oxygen-Cold also meant I would have to redo fewer pixmaps from my previous Oxygen-Molecule version.
Also, I don't know what is up with Firefox, but earlier versions didn't have the menubar text issue--seems to have been introduced with Firefox 3.6.
If it didn't take me so blasted long to redo all of the pixmaps, I would make new color schemes in a heartbeat, and then everybody would be happy. - Apr 10 2010

1) Icon transparency (there's at least two different modifications in this vein)
2) Prelight of tabs
3) Recolorable pixmaps (Craig Drummond hacked this together, but it needs modification. It even reads the colors from the KDE color settings!)
If someone wants to organize a modified pixbuf engine, I'd be willing to customize Oxygen-Molecule to the new changes. I can also provide a list of changes that would really help to make the GTK theme match KDE even more perfectly (gradient handling, etc.). - Apr 07 2010

I did recently tweak the shading amount in Oxygen-Molecule 3.2, which I think looks better, if you want to give it a look.
When I get some time, I'll be publishing my source graphics files so that others can make their own variants on the theme. - Apr 07 2010

I probably just need to adjust a padding setting somewhere to compensate. - Apr 07 2010

Here are my responses to your points:
1. The only way I know how to show the focused widget in all cases is to enable the pixbuf engine's focus line. This comes in handy when using the keyboard to navigate the widgets. With this option disabled, you can't always tell which widget has focus. So, my decision in this case was one of usability over beauty. If you want to disable the dotted focus line, simply find this line in the gtkrc file:
GtkWidget:: focus-line-width = 1
and change it to:
GtkWidget:: focus-line-width = 0
If anybody knows a better way to do this, I'm all ears.
2. I can't find a way to do tab prelight with the pixbuf engine.
3. This is a limitation of the pixbuf engine, but you can download a version of pixbuf that fixes this here: http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/gtk2-engine-pixbuf+%28Patched%29?content=77783
4. Another pixbuf engine limitation.
Again, if anyone knows other ways around these issues, I'd love to learn. The only way I've learned how to make this theme is by downloading other pixbuf themes and looking at the code. - Apr 07 2010

I'm amazed at the number of new features that you have been adding to QtCurve. I can't keep up with them all!
I have run into a problem, though. Sometimes the text over a progressbar is unreadable. See the following screenshot:

The theme in the screenshot is my recent creation, Tenuto-Light, which can be found here:

A couple of questions:
- What program is that pop-up menu from (or do all of your GTK apps have that problem)
- What OS and version are you running?
- What version of gtk2-engines-pixbuf do you have? I'm running 2.18.3
Thanks,
