Description

This is a theme based on Elune

Special thanks to :iconminhtrimatrix: for the permission to make the theme for KDE4.

Icons [link]

Wallpaper [link]

Instructions:

Extract the theme to ~/.kde/share/apps/desktoptheme/

Select the theme in System Settings>Workspace Appearance>Desktop Theme>Theme

If the theme doesn't show right for some reason, delete the cache file ~/.kde/cache (machinename)/plasma_theme_Elune.kcache

Notes

If you are using a 2D desktop(not OpenGL accelerated with desktop effects on) you will find a folder named "light-panel". Copy the "icons" folder inside and overwrite the one in the theme directory and copy the "arrows.svgz" into the "widgets" folder, overwriting the file in there. These are dark assets for the opaque panel in 2D mode. Delete the cache file as said above if you have any problems and things don't change.

Elune style menu icons are in the "extra" folder(right click>Application Launcher Settings to change the menu icon).

Hey, I've noticed some bugs/problems/whatever that seem to be particular to this theme...
If the panel is higher than 24 pixels, there is a 1px completely transparent gap under it, and sometimes I can click through it and the regular desktop menu appears. Only happens if the panel is on the bottom.
Also, if the Outline desktop effects plugin is turned on, the outlines are a solid color, not transparent like they are supposed to be (?). Distro is openSUSE with KDE 4.10, if it matters.
