I just want to say that I can't stand the ubuntu colors. Please don't
suggest using ugly brown colors for a phone. At the moment I like the
dark version of the phone but the orange one could use a little change.

Have to kind of agree with Amy about the colour scheme. I am not much of
an art person, but I am pondering a theme that rhymes with Ubuntu's
Human theme, with a more natural, (human) look to the applications. I am
one of what seems a few who has always liked the idea behind that theme :b
What I have pondered out (in way too many different mediums) is a bit
lighter than that Human theme, but I think it is helpful to have
applications behave more like people than just machines. I am not
talking about avatars that are pictures of smiling people! For example,
people make suggestions and know what they are doing, while machines
just do things, assuming the user knows everything. For a friendly
interface, I think the human behaviour can be really beneficial and
unique, as opposed to the appliance behaviour of most systems. The theme
is the first place to start!
The other thing I consider a bit problematic with the black and orange
is that it is difficult (nay, impossible!) to get a more extreme colour
for particularly important buttons and messages. For example, with a
lighter background, Red would be a lot prominent.

Thanks so much for sharing these pictures. I include one, and a

I watch this project very closely. It has great potential to keep
choice available to people - even just for selecting a services
provider.
But, IMO, the color scheme is wrong! I know lots of amazing
technical hurdles are being cleared and political ones, as well.
But, that color scheme is going to hold this thing back. It should
be snazzy and bright and colorful and full of ENERGY! Not orange and
black like Halloween. The added gray does not help, either!
All the best to you all as you work together on this extremely
important effort!
Amy :)
