🙂 Hello @Max_a_donde_vas and welcome to the forum!

There are several ways to more color-schemes/themes for Krita, here I’ll present those known to me:

You have the possibility to create your own themes with the help of this plugin:

> [@Plugin: Theme Creator Extension](https://krita-artists.org/t/plugin-theme-creator-extension/62953):
>
> Theme Creator: This plugin allows to create a basic version of a color Theme file, with (not completely accurate) previewing of it while choosing colors. Creating the theme by picking colors, and previewing their effect: The preview is inaccurate because it won’t update all widgets or properly reflect the colors for selected/disabled states, and it doesn’t account for special blending effects. The resulting exported theme’s actual appearance (after restarting Krita,…

This plugin allows even more extensive changes to the user interface, use it in combination with the plugin above:

> [@Plugin: Style Sheet Loader Extension](https://krita-artists.org/t/plugin-style-sheet-loader-extension/62955):

> Style Sheet Loader: This plugin allows to load a Qt Style Sheet and apply it to Krita’s UI. The style sheet’s filepath can be remembered and automatically loaded on startup. Loading an example stylesheet, before (regular UI): After, with custom styling. (I didn’t have or make a proper stylesheet to test with, so this is just randomly-pasted-together example code. Sorry it looks so ugly!): This shows off various things stylesheets can …

You can of course also search through the ready-made color schemes of the following posts for themes that you like:

In case that there should be dead links among the color-schemes above, you can ask in the respective topic for a re-upload or a corrected link, theoretically I should be able to provide a link to any of them

And if this selection is still not enough for you, you can also download thousands of KDE schemes from the following website. These work perfectly in and with Krita. And often these color schemes also bring many other things that Krita can’t do anything with and that you can ignore, including icons, widgets and more. But you only need the file named colors (without file name extension, it is really just called “colors”) from the archives (and it is best to rename it to “Archivname.colors” immediately after downloading so that you can assign it later):

Usually you will get `*.TAR.GZ` archives for themes from pling, but these files can have other formats as well that are common in the world of Linux, so an archive manager (unpacker, unzipper) like 7ZIP is needed to get the contained `colors` file. There can be cases in that you won’t find a colors-file in these archives and I can’t tell which format these color schemes have and how to apply them, I delete these files because I don’t know how to use them.
