Following up my [earlier post]({{ site.url }}/2012/10/whats-cooking-for-kde-in-opensuse-12-3-theming), the new openSUSE 12.3 theme has finally landed into the official openSUSE repositories  and will be part of the upcoming 12.3. A lot of work has gone into the new theme since I last posted about it, so this post will show how things look at the moment.


A few caveats:











	
  * The theme targets the 4.10 release of the KDE Workspaces, so it may be not be perfect under 4.9;

	
  * The default wallpaper has not been chosen yet.


Without further ado, let's get down to seeing what's improved.

Of course feedback is always appreciated: there's still time until openSUSE 12.3 ships, so be sure to let us know what can be changed so we can make this a truly awesome visual experience for openSUSE KDE users.
