Thanks for reminding Jos that these exist (Jos, weren't you actually in the audience of my talk at Akademy?). Or did you mean that there were no guidelines for these specific things, Jos? Actually there are guidelines for drawers ( http://community.kde.org/Plasma/Active/Development/ActiveHIG/Drawers ) and at least a specific kind of inline dialog is covered in (http://community.kde.org/Plasma/Active/Development/ActiveHIG/Settings) but we definitely need one for the column-based UI (I hope I'll find time to write that soon, it really is important) and maybe a more general one for inline dialogs. > As I'm not a UX designer, I can help only with some more basic UI stuff like > the home screen, peek & run diagrams and similar.

Those diagrams by themselves won't be of much help without accompanying text, but they can be used in HIGs which still have to be written. Maybe we can create stubs for HIGs, place the images in them and then write text around them later? Thanks for preparing them.
