Like the man said - It's just a theme.

Go to freshmeat.net and search for themes.

I REALLY like the H2O themes for Gnome and the Keramic theme for KDE.
(Look at GTK themes for Gnome)

The nice thing about freshmeat is the show a thumbnail preview of each
theme.

Bluecurve is just a GUI theme which is intended to make KDE and GNOME look 
alike (which is actually not a bad idea for new users migrating from certain

*other* OSes--since it kinda looks like a certain other OS--but it can get 
annoying or confusing for other users).  Obviously, staying in runlevel 3 
will ignore Bluecurve, but in a GUI environment, other themes can be 
selected.  I just set my KDE settings to about the same as what I'd had
going 
from 7.1, and everything seems kosher.
