    You can right click on the lizard and select "switch to KDE menu style". I don't know if there is a way to change just the lizard and put something else.

    The path to the images for the kicker start button on 10.2 is:

    /opt/kde3/share/apps/kicker/pics

    I think it is the same with 10.3 as far as KDE 3.x is concerned. KDE4.x files will all be located somewhere under the /user tree. There is a gotcha though, the kicker images are of the .mng type, which some type of animated format, you see this with the color change when you click on the start button.

    The good news is you can replace them with .jpg images renamed to .mng and the kicker will load them with no apparent harm done. I also do not care for the default openSuse logo. I was going to install the older Suse logo but I happened on something I like better. If you like it let me know and I will email you the alt orientation versions.

    I actually like it. You designed this yourself? nice. Thanks a lot for you help, too. I've been looking for a way to change that forever

    Not my original creation.

    But to my knowledge I was the first to see it as an excellent Suse kicker icon. I cropped, resized and added transparency, etc in Gimp. If you use it please thank deviant art contributer nicobou as the genius behind the little guy is his. If you like this you will love the rest of his work. For distribution or commercial use of this work please contact nicobou. Otherwise he has stated to me that he has no problem with people using it in this manner. I really like the little guys smirk.

    Oh and BTW it will auto resize with sizes changes to the kicker panel, you just have to select it once after changing the panels size.
