A decoration/button style where user could provide their own images instead of relying on the built-in ones?
So basically each style and window decoration has their own internal images to use as button backgrounds, title bar background, etc. How about developing one that could let user supply their own image overrides that would be loaded from the mass storage for fully skinnable environment.
Basically what I am asking for is something like Auroae/Kvantum, but actually performant and with ability to create custom themes visually. Such universal decorator/widget theming engine would make it possible to create new themes without writing any new code or even recompiling existing one.
And no, I don't have the skills (or time) to develop it myself, otherwise I wouldn't be making this post.
Greetings,
Take a look at DeKorator, it sounds a lot like what you are describing. You could also accomplish something similar with the IceWM engine, which is part of tdeartwork I think.

Do you have any links to DeKorator? It's surprisingly hard to google for. Also from what it seems, it only takes care of the title bar, I need also something that can let me make custom themes for widgets (buttons, checkboxes, etc.).
//edit: Also, Dekorator seems to not be a part of the TDE packages on openSuSE Tumbleweed, unless I've missed one.

I looked in the RPM package repository and I see:
Name : trinity-twin-style-dekorator Epoch : 2 Version : 1.0.5 Release : 14.1.5_1.osstw Architecture: x86_64 ...
so the package seems to be normally available in the repository.

Okay, looks decent enough, but I'd like something like Dekorator but for widgets too (buttons, checkboxes, radios, textboxes, etc.) Or an ability for TDE to interface with Kvantum (if it's even possible).
