Geramik is not a normal theme.  The only useful
purpose it serves is being the default theme,
alongside KDE's default Keramik theme.  Looks-wise
neither are all that wonderful, and noone's gonna
choose to use them over something else.  Their only
usefulness is in their consistency, it's basically the
same idea as Bluecurve.

Yes, there's only one author, I'm sure he'd appreciate
help.  I would think having a well-working Geramik
would be a desirable thing for MDK.

You said something about it not working, but that
hasn't been my experience (has Gtk changed?).  The
only problem is, even if you switch to a different
theme sometimes in newer Geramik versions a few pieces
of it are still left over.  I only see this in Gtk+1
though.

Well I'd rather KDE have a better default theme. 
Actually what might be cool is if Geramik were broken
into two pieces, one that keeps the color/font/etc
settings consistent between Qt and Gtk+ consistent,
and another that's just the Keramiky theme.
