@Derek,

Thanks for the suggestion. You’ll see an article on how to install custom ubuntu themes along with links to several popular ubuntu themes soon.

@Zubin,

I’ve added this (KDE article) on my lists of things to do. Thanks for your suggestion.

@Bryce, Derek,

I weep (happy tears) just reading your comments. Thanks a lot for your comments.

“I weep for the future of linux when guides are needed to do simply configure gnome. Basic graphically interface.”

I weep for the future of the English language. But I’m happy that Linux is reaching the mainstream where not everyone is a “techno-geek”.

I weep for the future of linux when guides are needed to do simply configure gnome. Basic graphically interface. Yes the appearance application lets you change the look of the interface.. What?? completely blown away by the basic intitutive structure that a 5 year old could discover.

nice to see many people changing the default ubuntu theme(i hate it). Maybe you should post an article on doing the same on KDE. Articles on configuring shortuts and other features on KDE would also be nice.

Cheers!!!
