Here is my HOWTO for making native KWin decorations. This tutorial covers creating a native KWin decoration using C++/Qt, as opposed to using a pixmap engine like the IceWM deco.
Includes tutorial and complete working source code for a plain but functional decoration. Assumes familiarity with C++ and Qt.
Now there's no more excuses for not writing that decoration you always wished someone else would do!

The Style Overview (in the qt docs) gives a brief tutorial, and the QStyle reference details pretty much everything else (except dealing with KDE oddities, like kde toolbar widgets - other styles are a good place to look for how to deal with them).
