emblems in ubuntu - anything similar in kubuntu?

[burnsy]

Hi guys,

I liked the concept of 'emblems' in ubuntu, where you could make small images appear over the top of icons to signify different things. Is there anything similar in kubuntu?
Maybe a package I could install that would add a similar functionality?

Thanks,

Hmm - there is this:

Emblems Hack
http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show...?content=52193

Description:
This is a simple hack to kdelibs-3.5.5 (and 3.5.6) that adds basic emblem support, like in GNOME. (It doesn't use the same format, though.)

Requirements:
- KDE 3.5.5 or 3.5.6
- Extended Attribute support (xattrs must be supported by the kernel and the current filesystem - add the user_xattr option to fstab if necessary)

And you need to recompile kdelibs.


For kde4 there will be:
Emblems + Text Tags + Tenor

Thanks.
Looks like I'll just be hanging out for KDE 4 then.
