The dekorator is in a source code form and need to be compiled as this untar it(uncompress it) cd into the folder director cd <package_name> ./configure make make install to uninstall, do make uninstall
The dekorator is like your plastic theme or lipstick theme with better effect and font end handling.
A theme for dekorator is crystal dekorator which has to be compiled too. this produce the transparent effect around windows and noticed in my window edges.

The vista-inspire icon can be downloaded from www.kde-look.orgI replace the default tool bar icons of the vista-inspire icon with the Gold icons. This can be done from your konqueror windows setting. Kbfx replaces the default klaunch

superkaramba is just used for the desktop time and date display. this theme can be gotten from kde-look.

I just upgraded KDE to 3.5.2 from 3.5.1and also did a dist-upgrade at the same time. When it was finished I noticed a new program don't know if its Kubuntu specific or KDE. Its Katapult and really wonderful. It launches by pressing 'alt'+'space' and then you type in a program and it launches it. I have not had to go to kmenu for some time and its really time saving. http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=33985

sh.i.t, niggy, where do you get these mesmerizing wallpaers? i must have died an gone to bitmap heaven (LOL).
How do you get ur apps for Gnome? all the developers out there (most of em, anyway) seem KDE-inclined, and i have to trawl the net to play mp3, wma, divx (these things are not part of the FC3 distro)
