Anybody loving the original Bluecurve theme? misc

What I like in CentOS 4 is that it still offers the original Red Hat Bluecurve theme, which I find very comfortable to use:


To make my life easier when I must use KDE in some other distros (or in BSD flavors), I tried to find a KDE theme that looks exactly as the original Bluecurve Gtk+ theme, but I could find none on kde-look.org!

Some people told me that I shoud look for something like QtCurve. Nay, there is nothing looking like Red Hat's Bluecurve for GNOME. It's easy to "steal" the icons, but what I need is window decorations, and making Qt to look like this!

Any idea to make the KDE look like in the picture?

Isn't there anybody that likes Bluecurve?! (Apparently, there isn't any.)

Hi, here is one RedHat user that likes Bluecurve. It's a bit old (from RH 8?) but is very professional, polished-look.

Icons is not the same: its look very outdated if your compare with Oxygen or Tango.

Btw, Fedora Core 6 continues to include BlueCurve in Gnome Theme's program. For me it's better than the default one (Clearlooks).

Yep, Bluecurve theme is great!
That and Clearlooks are my favourite gnome themes.

You can find QtCurve @ http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=40492
It's a "generic" version.

This QtCurve has NOTHING IN COMMON with Bluecurve! There is no ressemblance at all between the two themes!!!
