Hi… anybody knows how to make the windows look like this:
Systemsettings - Appearance - Colors - Get new schemes - Pick it, done.
Or download it and import it.

in this case, i think “it” is a theme named “Emerald”…
but, to get the full effect of the image you posted, you will need to
learn Russian!!

What you need to make them look like that is qtcurve. It should be a fairly recent version, more recent than what is in the standard repositories. I currently use the following repository for qtcurve 1.3.x:
Index of /repositories/home:/pantsgolem:/qtcurve/openSUSE_11.2
What you will also need, is the qtcurve presets file that the person you link to uses. And if I am not entirely mistaken it is this qtcurve presets file:
Metal (qtcurve) KDE-Look.org
OK, once you have got the color scheme (see Knurpht’s post), qtcurve and qtcurve preset you can got to ‘Systemsettings > Appearance > Style’ and select “Qtcurve”. Now click “Configure” and import the “Metal” qtcurve preset. Here is a screenshot:

In ‘Systemsettings > Appearance > Colors’ you can import colors. (In the screenshot above I am already using the Monochrome color scheme; that is the one you linked to.)
In ‘Systemsettings > Appearance > GTK Styles and Fonts’ you need to set qtcurve as your gtk style. This will have the effect that not only QT application, but also GTK+ applications take the metal look.
And lastly you can pay ‘Systemsettings > Appearance > Windows’ a visit. You can select qtcurve here as your window decoration well, but without further tinkering the result will look like in my screenshot; totally unusable. Maybe you could pick “Oxygen” or something for the Window decorations? (Or you find out what exactly the person you linked to did to them.)
