Hi everybody,
I hope this is the right place to make s suggestion about artwork
and polish, as is it not about bugs.
First of all, I would like to say that it is a very good thing that you
take care of users feelings about new themes you create/propose.
About that, I know that many people told you that the new theme in Dapper
was too orange and maybe ugly. But you must keep in mind that this is not
everybody's feeling about that.
Personnaly, I didn't like the new human theme (brown windows, orange
when flying upon buttons and menus and orange folders), I LOVED IT
SO MUCH ! It was a very good idea.It was very different than what we
are used to see. And I find the one you replaced it with is ugly
(orange folders with blue menus are really not good together).
Of course, you cannot satisfy everybody's tastes/feelings about artwork !
That is the reason why I'd like to tell you that you should let users have
the choice.
For example, you could create a second human theme called "human orange"
(or in theme's details for menus and buttons). Even if you keep something
different for the default artwork on Ubuntu, you should, at least, keep the
idea you had as a possible choice for the user. Why not ? This would satisfy
everybody.
The second thing is about OOo's icons. Openoffice's 2.0.2 package (the one
that is distributed by Sun and contributors) let us choose the icon theme
whatever desktop we are using (even if it uses the correct icon theme for the
correct desktop by default).
Once again, even if it is a good thing that you focus on gnome's
integration, you should let the user have the choice (crystal icon theme), as
everybody is not obliged to like it like that.
Thank you.
