I think crystal is the finest window decoration ever conceived. (just my
personal preference) It is one of the only ones that will do active transparency.

This is illustrated best in this screenshot. The desktop is reflections on water
with a black top and reflections in the center. Look at the window decoration
both on the control center and on the about dialog. Crystal is a must :)

For a look at the background:

I also have a kdm login screen that goes with it that is available for tde as well:

(I have tweaked the colors on the dialogs, but haven't created a new screenshot)

The kdm_theme named reflection_kdm is here:

I believe it is currently sized for 1920x1200, but with minor tweaks to the .xml
file it can fit any resolution.
