Description:
Some SuSE-friendly kbfx-buttos with various text.

The base kbfx-buttons are from kde-look, but i can't find them any more.
The base chameleon is taken from "Suse Chameleon" (http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=3962. I modified it with big eyes and named it "SuSE-friendly" (http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=42677).
The Gimp-Multi-Layer-Files are included for your own creation.
Last changelog:

16.07.2006 Relaese
22.07.2006 Rebuild the buttons, nicer hover efect (i think...), added other color, added resolution of 48px height

hey i followed you suggestion of installing kbfx to use the Start image but kbfx does nothing on my system. I can see it in the control center, i can select the images i want but when i click on Apply, Save and Reload, it does nothing... any suggestions on how to fix it?

Please right-click on your panel, select "add ---miniprogram---" (don't know, cause I only see german text) and select the kbfx-miniprogram. Then drag the kbfx-button with the middle-mouse-button to the left side of the panel. Be shure, you select the right panel-height in the panel-configurator under "layout", for example "48" or "54" (it is recomented, because kbfx resizes the panel itself without changing that value). Thank you for your interest!

HI... Where is the directory containing the button???? I searched it but could only find the ,emu style buttons and all... PLease tell... is it /opt/kde3/share/apps/kbfx ? I dint get any button images there... tell me please....

I once installed kbfx v0.4.8. After a while it got a pixmap-error, that i can't fix, so i switched to v0.4.9.2 rc1. That version does not work very well for me, so i searched the internet and switched back to version 0.4.9.0. Now it's working fine! :-) There's a configuration-file in your home-dir at ~/.kde/share/config/kbfxrc with the paths of the buttons within. If you edit that file, you may get a positive result... I put my buttons in a ~/.kbfx - dir and got no problems.

Divilinux

usually are in /usr/share/apps/kbfx/spinx..

Divilinux

yes..you are right.. 2 weeks ago it happened to me..no button changed..-.-..even if reinstall kbfx i don't know why..but search for actually kbfx-button dir. to replace button simply put in that dir and rename with the same name of the old button you can find in the directory this works^^

No use:-( Please tell me how to install this theme.. i couldn find any help in kbfx website. ANy oneee?? Please....Am waitn

Hello RaKris, installing a new button-theme is easy. Just open your control-center an go to kbfx. On the first page of the configuration-window you see the browse-section. Here you can select the pixmaps for your buttons (you can also drag and drop them). After selection you must press the "Apply"-button and then the "Reload"-button on top of the page. If everything is ok, press the "Save"-button. Good luck! Chrischaan
