Oh man, imagine if XP had used the Royale or Embedded theme out of the box, instead of that plasticky Luna theme...
My favorite Windows XP theme is one that was sadly dropped when Windows XP left beta: the Watercolor theme. It was a like a more polished, slightly fancier Windows Classic, with a nifty grid doodad in the titlebar.
10Very cool. I don't like the Windows look, but the blue color makes the plasma theme look unique. We need more themes like this one, that aren't flat!

Thanks for the upvote. Flat themes bore me. There's only so many ways to color a rectangle ;)
You might try something more off the beaten path, like AmigaOS: https://www.amigaos.net :-)
KDE 2 looked a bit like that. That style really works because of the icons so not sure how successful a port to Plasma would be. Oxygen icons perhaps?
