Lightning Unified QtCurve
Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): Add the source-code for this project on opencode.net
This is a QtCurve Preset-file
-----------------------------------------
Installation:
- Install "kde-style-qtcurve" from package manager
- Open System Settings -> Application Appearance -> Style
- Change Widget Style to, QtCurve, and click configure
- Import the file qtcurve-file you downloaded here.
Save and Presto :-)
You might need to log out and back in again for all window decorations to be updated.
----------------------------------------------------
Take a look at the KDE Color Theme I shared I while back:
http://opendesktop.org/content/show.php/Lightning+Unified+Orange?content=153606
That KDE color theme is what I am using in the Screenshots :-)
----------------------------------------------------
Enjoy :-)

--------------- 16/12-12 ---------------
- Nicer Progressbars, also animated now.
- Menus are nicer now, lighter, more fresh, look.
- Nicer buttons
--------------- 27/04-13 ---------------
- Thinner scrollbars (nicer when using borderless windows)
- Things are more rounded
- New tab-look
- Color shade for sorted column
--------------- 12/05-13 ---------------
- Fixed QtCurve window decorations for those interested in using that with this preset.
-- This update is especially useful if you're using different color schemes between programs, like digikam. Window decorations follow color scheme.
Otherwise, well - It has some refreshing window buttons :-P
( for those interested, the digikam color scheme can be found here: http://opendesktop.org/content/show.php/Lightning+Unified+-+digiKam+%28Fullscreen%29?content=155968 )
--------------- 31/05-13 ---------------
- Tweaked tabs to be a bit more gentle and blend in with the rest of the window better.
--------------- 28/07-13 ---------------
- Adjusted shadows, deeper 3D-feeling.
--------------- 20/11-13 ---------------
- Been working on Shapes, Shadows, Shades and box-details.
--------------- 04/12-13 ---------------
- Work a bit on List-Views, Docked Windows and pop-up menus.
-- List-view headers are softer blending better into window for a more soothing feeling.
-- List-view selections/selected objects have a more toned down appearance. Trying to be more indicating than focus-stealing.
-- Docked windows appear more like normal windows when unlocked.
-- Pop-up menus are a bit more transparent but lighter to compensate up for the color-loss while making them transparent. The result is pretty sweet.
--------------- 22/04-14 ---------------
- Have gone through the theme from top to bottom. Widgets have a bit of a new look and so does toolbars. Also gave windows a bottom-border in order to make them round at all edges. I hope that if you liked the earlier versions of Lightning Unified, the you'll love this version.
Happy Easter!
--------------- 06/05-14 ---------------
- Update for window buttons. entire buttons become colored when mouse over, gray scale for background windows.
Hope you'll like it!
Cheers / hackan
--------------- 08/05-14 ---------------
- Added a light border on top of windows, gives better edged/3D feeling to the window.
- Fixed a weird ghost-border appearing between titlebar and window.
--------------- 27/06-14 ---------------
- Ubuntu One filesharing has stopped so this preset hasn't been downloadable for a little while now, sorry about that. I uploaded it directly to OpenDesktop so now you should be able to get a copy of it again.

thank you for sharing your really good work!! It will be my default theme.
Just a question, how to make docky trash work in KDE?

Hm, my docky-trash is actually not working perfectly, so I am handling my trash in Dolphin. But it does display when I have trash and when the trash is empty correctly.

By the way, how'd you get the resize handle in the bottom-right corner of the windows? I looked through all of QtCurve's options and couldn't find a setting for that.

The resize-thing in the corner happens automatically when the windows are set to be borderless. So if you would tweak the windows-setting to have a border you would be able to pull the windows from any corner/edge.
