Qt5 look configuration

Hi.

I've got MediterraneanDarkest theme (http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/ … ent=156782) running absolutely awesome for all GTK apps (both 2 and 3), but when it get to Qt... Ughh... it is absolutely ugly.
Foreground color is not applied (so it shows black text on dark grey background and eye-destroying link colors). I've tried to override that somehow, but no luck. Qt styling is a pain in the a* no matter what their developers say.

I've tried to force colors using .gtkrc-2.0, but no luck it just ignores my settings while native GTK2 apps apply them.

So my question is: how do you people make Qt look less ugly? Is there some recommended GTK theme that will play nicely with Qts GTK theme plugin or some other advices?

Thanks.

Thank you captain obvious! I've already been there and tried that. That article was useless. See problems above.
