  I truly miss the icons and themes of the old KDE's. They were crisp and clean and
  not "muddied" as another poster said many of the new ones are (which I agree with).

  And I've been saying that other thing for years on other forums with other things
  (the pwc drivers for Philips webcam's is just one that comes to mind)...it seems
  though that folks becoming devs nowadays have never heard such sayings and
  oftentimes seem to not care.
