Just the best icon set of all plasma themes I've ever seen. Thanks for this piece of beauty. I just love your other themes United and Amarakage too.

Hi! I love your theme, I've been using it since the old versions! :)

I just wanted to tell you that the file on SugarSync is no longer available and that there's a resizing problem for buttons, eg. put a small calculator on your desktop and restart plasma = you'll see that the buttons are bad sized and text is not aligned, but if you resize the widget it turns back to normal.

Bye!

Tu tema es bastante bueno, y lo he querido usar en mi Arch... pero, tal y como dicen, ya no esta en Sugar... ¿Por qué?? Por favor, no nos dejes esperando tu buen trabajo. Saludos, y sigue adelante.

bueno mi problema es este:
cuando modifico un archivo del tema en karbon 14 y despues lo guardo me dice que puede haber una perdida de informacion al guardarlo en svg y se le doy aceptar al probar el tema en las preferencias del sistema no se muestran correctamente las imagenes, o se muestran incompletas o no cambian :(

Thanks for reporting those errors which will try to correct for the next version which I have scheduled for early February.

I also have 1 more problem..

You know the red gradiant, when a window is flashing (window alert). Well, sometimes it gets stuck on that, and won't go away, no matter how many times I click on the window, minimize, bring back up, etc. I think that moving it to another desktop and back works though.

I LOVE this theme! Thank you so much for your work!

I do however have 1 problem which is really annoying me!

When I hover over an item in the taskbar, it turns yellow. This occurs only when I have a window minimized. I also have kwin effects turned off if that helps any.

Just installed Helium and love it. But I do get a black bar on the right side (see here: http://ompldr.org/vYmx4cA/blackbar.jpg ). Does anyone know what it is and how I can get rid of it. It does not appear when I have the taskbar on any of the other three sides of the screen (but the left is where I want it!). Thanks for any tips.

Hey! This theme is just great, only problem is that Lancelot, notifications and other plasma dialogs (for example network-manager and all the tooltips/widgets/dialogs activated from the system tray, or the Box Switch dialog or whatever they're called) are sometimes difficult to see due to high transparency, so it really depends too much on the back standing window or the desktop background.
Do you think anything can be done?

Thanks for the great work up to now!

have activated the blur effect??

Because Helium is made to work with the blur effect turned.
