Personally, I don't like the original nextstep/openstep look (I have a HP gecko with nextstep on it). I think it is dull and boring. And this has nothing todo with having a small display (mine is 17'' with 1280x1024 which is fine). think Plastik is a very nice theme, it is simplistic, but not totally boring. Have a look at: http://users.physik.tu-muenchen.de/mthaler/gnustep_plastik1.jpg http://users.physik.tu-muenchen.de/mthaler/gnustep_plastik2.jpg It is far from perfect, but I think Plastik looks also nice with gnustep and the gnustep applications now fit in quite well into my KDE desktop. However, the theme is not complete yet. I also do not like the gnustep icons too much. Have a look at http://www.oxygen-icons.org/?cat=3 This will be the default icon theme for KDE4. I think they look quite nice. Is it somehow possible to change the gnustep icons or create icon themes? > Another thing I'd like to see is thought on how to integrate better > into non-gnustep environments, as this seems a fairly obvious first > stage to getting people to look at GNUstep. For instance, app icons That is my point. Right now gnustep is basically only interesting for ex-nextstep users and some other geeks. And that is a shame.
