So I would wish a bit more info about a plasmoid so that I know whether I need it or not. That could be solved by adding I icon which would show longer description of it. I would make an mock-up but my Kolourpait dosen't work. Tux paint is not what I hoped it would be and InkScape is a bit hard to make a simple mock-up.

Expected results: A usable and pretty browser for widgets that allows a user to see an icon or snapshot of the widget, select a widget to be placed in a containment, search for a widget based on name/description, sort the widgets into categories, rate widgets and provide ways to launch the online browsers and installers for both native Plasmoids as well as third party tools such as Google Gadgets (which is already supported in the Package class). All the required support functionality already exists, this project is really about creating a beautiful and dynamic user interface for looking through a widget catalog that looks "Plasma". Knowledge prerequisite: Knowledge of C++. Mentor: Plasma team. Contact at plasma-devel@kde.org or #plasma on freenode. hope it gets picked! Primoz, proud to be a member of KDE forums since 2008-Nov.
