New Theme: 240x320 - Contrast
lights0ut:
Just a preview of theme I'm working on; the goal is to have a clean and clear appearance by using a large font and only the most essential information. The blank area in the centre is meant for album art(150px), I am thinking of borrowing some of the arbox widgets to put alongside it (and show more widgets without album art). Please give me some feedback or pointers :P
EDIT: Now available on the themes site for testing! :D

looks pretty straight edge :) feels like a good replacement for the "4car" wps. i don't know about the widgets though. will you redesign them? Because i don't think the glass look of them wouldn't go too well with this theme.

Good point, I will see how they turn out, maybe it would be better to have the widgets follow the style of the theme and give them a 1px border and use black and white. On that note, maybe the play status icons are a bit too glassy? (they are from KDE oxygen/amarok2)
Chronon:
If you can find a more high-contrast (grayscale maybe?) iconset I think the theme would look more coherent. Currently, the icons in the menu look a bit colorful compared with the simple, high-contrast look in all other parts of the theme.

greyscale icons screenshot added!
Personally, I think the color set looks better, but it might be a good idea to go with a higher contrast iconset such as http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php/Monochrome?content=18317
