Hello,

after i updated the package KDEBase from 2.0.1 to 2.1.0, the icons in the window title-bar (close window, minimize, maximize etc.) were chzanged in an ugly way.

BTW there is one strange behaviour: when i start KDE (Base) 2.1.0 as root, the icons take space between each other. As normal user, the icons stand closed at each other.

Anyway, this should be only a feedback. I find this new icons in the window-title-bar so ugly that i downgraded to 2.0.1. (sorry ;-)

I found no way to "preference" the icons. It is for me a matter of taking KDEBase 2.0.1 or 2.1.0. (Am i right?)

I found the old style more nice and handy, and i think you should NOT imitate M$-Windows!! 

The "old style" in 2.0.1 was: 
* the 'close-window-cross' is left.
* 'min. and max. icons do NOT (!!)  look like windows-icons but more like arrows.

Above all- like everytime- my thanks for KDE and the incredible work within it.

regards
Kristian Schmees
