Description: This theme basically involves a small modification in the systemtray.svg of kde's default Oxygen Plasma theme. The screenshot should make this difference obvious.
If you are not able to install this using the get themes interface. Then download the tarball and extract at the following location: ~/.kde/share/apps/desktoptheme
After that basically use the theme.
Known Issues: increasing the height of the taskbar too much breaks the system tray appearance. This change was done just for the sake of it and i do not intend to fix the issue as i am not really good at this.
I myself dislike the "roundiness" in KDE's default Plasma, the same goes for Air in 4.3. It's a big shame they have to mimic a regular push Oxygen push button in Plasma themes because the push button is probably the ugliest widget in Oxygen now that tabs are 'fixed'.
I think kde 4 is shaping really well over the course of time. Given that it is a complete rewrite, and the improvements between 4.1 to 4.2 to 4.3 are just worth appluading. We all know that kde is headed in the right direction and that is always a good thing for the user community.

I think, your version is much more better.
I like the original behavior more.
that really is the beauty of open source.
Yep it is... others will like it maybe... I didn't vote this time.
