In KDE 4.7, after making some personalization I made a layout which I really like.
But light panels color breaking the whole idea. It is too bright.
Changing color scheme doesn't help.
How could I make panels darker?
P.S.: Panels I'm talking about are (sorry, translated from my native language):
- default panel
- folder "look" (or smth like that)
- system tray
- digital clock widget
- launch panel

Tweaking Plasma
A
The KDE is using the plasma themes. You could install more themes and mix different themes.
System Settings > Workspace Appearance > Desktop Theme. Theme / Details tabs.

B
The KDE plasma objects are using the svg images. You could edit the images with a svg capable picture editor (Inkscape et. al.).
