I can't say much about GDM, other than that it was completely rewritten and appears to not use themes at all. For KDM, the documentation for creating themes for the KDE 4 version is here: http://docs.kde.org/stable/en/kdebase-workspace/kdm/kdm-themes.html and the referenced DTD is there: http://websvn.kde.org/branches/KDE/4.0/kdebase/workspace/kdm/kfrontend/themes/greeter.dtd?revision=757128&view=markup Unfortunately, there was essentially no documentation at all for the KDE 3 KDM themes, so it isn't easy to see what changed from that documentation. The way I ported the F7 and F8 GDM themes to KDM was that I looked at other themes and copied what they used.

Oh great, KDE 4 did some incompatible KDM theme syntax changes in part to be more compatible with GDM themes (see e.g. http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=743596 ), and now GDM gets rewritten throwing their theme syntax out entirely. :-( Don't you love inter-project communication? :-( > KDE SIG probably would have to do its own thing. Fun... Something tells me we'll have to ship F9 with the default upstream "circles" theme... (We can't even use the old Fedora themes without porting them because KDE 4 KDM doesn't accept KDE 3 KDM themes.)

For F7 and F8, we (KDE SIG) have ported the GDM themes to KDM, but I don't see any GDM theme on the F9 final artwork page yet. To anyone working on this: be warned that both GDM and KDM changed significantly between F8 and F9, so please don't design against the F8 versions. Atleast for GDM, there is no requirement for any separate theme under the new design IIUC. https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-desktop-list/2008-February/msg00042.html KDE SIG probably would have to do its own thing.
