Oh, one more suggestion for 0.2. Perhaps the edges of the tabs should be rounded at the corners. Also, maybe make rounded arrows for the scroll bar arrows.
Those are the only two things I can think of to improve the theme as of now. ;)
Well im a noob and i just wanted 2 know...How do you install this? When open the configure file this is what it says:
matt@linux:~/shinekeramik-0.1> ./configure
checking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu
checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu
checking target system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking for -p flag to install... yes
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for gawk... gawk
checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... no
checking for style of include used by make... none
checking for gcc... no
checking for cc... no
checking for cc... no
checking for cl... no
configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
See `config.log' for more details.

I dont like the no's. What should i do?
nice looking! really cool, man... esp the buttons!
but i do have some sugestions:
1. roud the tabs a bit more, top and bottom, makes it look more smooth.
2. the buttons are great, keep em :D
3. the containers (what's their name, the spaces surrounded by a line) look better in in baghira, rouded and with a darker colour. i think you could do that, too...
4. did i say i love the buttons? keep the subtle colouring, then...
5. round everyting a bit more, like the text-input-fields, and surround them with a colourish glow, like mac os X and baghira do. or sink them and keep the color inside, like with the buttons???
6. the tickboxes look cool, only the 'V' inside them is a bit dull. maybe, like in mac os X, let it come out of the box? and give the box a color if it is ticked?
and yeah, i'd love to see you working on a windec, but please finish the style first :D
thanx, this is already a great style, and i'm sure it can become even better!
Wow this style looks great. Only thing that I seem to be having trouble with is that the menu bar color is lighter then the window background color. Is there anyway to change the color of the menubar so that it isnt a lighter shade? But other then that this is an awsome look, great job!
I am very happy to hear somebody likes it.
It is not perfect, though. That's why I chose 0.1 for version number.
I've already started working on version 0.2. More than half of the widgets will be re-designed. ;)
No plan for windeco yet, sorry.

Very nice theme. I would like to add it to Kubuntu. I have just successfully configured/compiled it, but how do I add it to the theme manager? Thanks.
This is the way Keramik should have been looking. Some rough edges in 0.1 but already very good. :)
This is the best style I've come across!
It compiled no problem on Slackware 10.2 and worked in kde3.5rc and continued to work after I upgraded to kde3.5.0.
It goes well with the Polyester window decoration.
Are you planning your own window decoration?
Can I install it in kde 3.4.2?Thanks!!
sorry is not kde 3.2 is kde 3.3.2 :P

What distro are you using maybe I could help if I knew what you are running.
Do you have gcc installed?
Just one word. GREATES.......................

Ok, I can remove the lighter shade in the next version. But don't expect it will be released soon. :(
it's perfect. now if only you could spiff up the keramik windeco to look as nice :)
