Description:
I couldn't find an Emerald theme that matches my current color scheme and QtCurve settings, so I decided to make one myself. There are four variations on this theme (as pictured in screenshot #1), all of which are contained in the tarball.

NOTICE:
This is very much a work-in-progress, so please post any suggestions you might have, ESPECIALLY IF YOU VOTE BAD. Once this reaches a level of quality I'm satisfied with, I'll be doing some color variations, so your input is important. Thanks.

For a matching KDE 3 color scheme and QtCurve configuration, have a look here: http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php/Heart+of+Ice+%2B+Sharp+Glass+QtCurve?content=87032.

Credits:
As a starting point for the buttons, I used the Shiny Glass gradient from CraigD's QtCurve Qt engine (http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php/QtCurve+(KDE4%2C+KDE3%2C+%26+Gtk2+Theme)?content=40492. The general design of the buttons was inspired by Robert West's Kobalt Emerald theme (http://www.compiz-themes.org/content/show.php/Kobalt+Variation?content=68545).

Thanks for the kind words. It uses the pixmap engine, so it should be fairly easy to convert to a deKorator theme. I was actually wanting to do that, just haven't made time yet. You're more than welcome to have a go at it; I only request that you let me know once you post it. As for color variations, I'm really not too sure yet-- I know I want to do one that will match dark color schemes, along with maybe a light green and darker blue variation.
