Moved legacy (1.0) version due to issues with applying global themes https://www.pling.com/p/1972161/

8 8 great
Thanks ^w^
At this moment, blur don't work due to Plasma 5.25 update. I'm working on it. Sorry for the late, Manjaro really delays new versions

Thank you. I'll update it when Plasma 5.25 is release on Manjaro so i can test it
10 10 the best - thanks for maintaining skeumorphic themes!
Your welcome ^w^ Today, there's a lack of skeuomorphic themes, we really need more artists to make skeumorphic themes. I'm no theme artist or designer, i made this theme totally as novice based off from other theme. That's very nice we have a open-source community that lets us be creative and inspirational making forks of other projects and doing huge modifications to make stuff how we like, and share to show people that might like it too and also make other themes based on it. If i had more experience, i would surely make more and also try to integrate it with the color-changing systems, so users would be able to change colors easily. I hope more other people's skeuomorphic projects starts to appear and show artists that there's still people, like me, that really miss the details from their desktop.
I agree. Flat themes can be nice but those flat standards narrow down the possibilities terribly. I miss the creativity in current designs. My favorite non-flat creators: https://www.pling.com/u/phob1an https://www.pling.com/u/abgr Greybird is also a great theme: https://www.pling.com/p/1521795 You can also check out my profile to see a few attempts: https://www.pling.com/u/bunnymnemonic/
Thank you ^w^. Also, i feel like we could take advantage of this minimalist theming wave to finish the work applying details to them, or minimizing the phrase (lol), de-minimize them, using them as another empty paper or another template. Many flat themes and icons lack of creativity, but they're still different, so with some work and good artists we could make many themes with their own personality. It would be so much better and quicker than making from scratch. On our free software environment, themes can always be made out of other themes.
You may have found this window decoration and may be asking: "Well, ¿why not just change Glowglass's colors anyways?" Well, Glowglass-Cupertino breaks Window-Buttons plugin for some reason, crashing Plasma, so i mix it with Freeze and got it working, yay
I don't know if it's a plugin's issue or a theme's one
