Linux Themes
Oxygen-Molecule for KDE 4.2/4.3
Linux applications are written using different “toolkits” to control their visual appearance and layout. The most common toolkits are GTK+ and Qt, designed to be used with the GNOME and KDE desktop environments respectively. You can run programs written in either toolkit under any Linux desktop environment. However, applications written with one toolkit often look out of place alongside applications written with another, since they don't share visual styles. In KDE 4, a user who wants to use a GTK+ application such as Firefox often has to put up with a theme and icon set that don't match the rest of the software on his or her system.
Oxygen-Molecule is a theme for GTK+ applications to provide a uniform look when used under the KDE 4 desktop environment.

Dust-BlueHaze is a modification of the original Ubuntu Dust 0.4 theme. The authors of the original Ubuntu Dust theme are Rico Sta. Cruz, Kido Mariano, and James Schriver.
This mod includes recolored gtkrc/pixmaps to give the grey dust colors more of a blue hue (rather than red) as well as a blue glow to the titlebar buttons. The hydroxygen iconset is used by default.
