Description
This is the finished zink theme from my screenshot a couple of days ago. I don't have a very large screen (1440x900) and usually have alot of apps running on top of each other (reference images if I'm drawing something in gimp, watching a movie while doing something else, etc.), so I wanted a theme that's very space efficient and uses non-distracting colors.Suite includes: Qtcurve config, aurorae window borders, colorscheme and amarok style
To install:
import zink.qtcurve in the qtcurve configuration window
import Zink.colors in the colorschemes settings
install the aurorae theme zink.tar.gz through the aurorae settings, or get it through GHNS
move default-theme-clean.svg to /usr/share/kde4/apps/amarok/images/
Install ALLGREY uniq ed. through GHNS at the icon settings, go to advanced and set gamma on all icons to about 70%
done

it's in default-theme-clean.svg, though I can't really remember which object... I think it's called "track"

First, install qtcurve and aurorae if you haven't already. Go to system settings>appearance>select qtcurve and press import and select the .qtc file, then press colors on the left and import the color scheme, I an't give precise instructions for the window border since I'm on kde4.5 but it's pretty much just select aurorae and import the archive
hope that helps

you can select it in system settings > appearance, it's not a separate application

i don't think it works =/ I have gone into appearances and selected qtcurve and gone into GTK themes and selected qtcurve, no idea why it doesn't work but i dont think it does.
If you are super kind you can email me instructions

see if you can find any official documentation (from kubuntu maybe). I made a installation guide for uniq (not sure how outdated it is now), some parts of that might be helpful. I will try to make a simple installer for my future suites (uniq 1.0 coming up next)

Popup menus seem to be too dark with that text color, I would change the "Shade Background by" Option from -35% to -5%.
Other than that very clean, attractive, usable. Fav'ed.

Ooh - definitely worth installing kde-desktop just to try this one out. Very nice balanced theme!
