From the other side qt has bulit-in clear look theme - gtk is not used to paint it.

Many Linux distros seem now to use GTK-QT theme for KDE, which is gtk theme that interfaces with Qt themes..

Besides I feel gtk is not painting speed daemon..

That is what image cache was designed for Wink

Personaly I think that is better to emulate default themes for both desktop though.

Maybe we will end with that. But I must say that I am quite happy with Chameleon in XP (just think about Vista and all troubles with creating new themes for it), so I think at least experiment is required here...

Frankly, after spending two days with Human, I would not want to repeat my ImageDes story - I spend 2 weeks fixing old ImageDes to work with new Image and 2 month later another 2 weeks with new ImageDes (rewritten from the scratch). I am afraid that story would repeate here, spending 2 weeks to recreate ClearLooks and Human and then another 2 weeks to get it working with GTK theming ...
