Re: [E-devel] Themes (Was: News from the E stables)
I really love detour, especially with the blend-borders and the themes for etk and ewl. This theme is currently by far the best theme (ihmo), because all the widgets look nice and fit, and you get a desktop that just fits and looks good. Of course it would be nice to have a detour-gtk-theme, too. :) Rasters new default theme looks promising and I'm really looking forward to see what he does to the menus and so on. It is also great to have a complete and well-documented theme. What I would like is to have the borders integrated with the all the rest of the window, just like detour's blend-borders do.

I didn't like bling-bling (was great at first, but after a while, it became unbearable), and I got tired of 'clearlooks'. Detour looks qite nice and would probably be a good start for replacing the default theme, but it needs some work to make it more 'universal'. Like Morten said, the progress bars aren't that good, the flashing cursor is nice, but could bother some people.. the 'inset' and 'plain' appearances of shelf content are the same (there's no 'inset' appearance), etc.. But overall, nice theme. KaKaRoTo - End forwarded message - - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Still grepping through log files to find problems? Stop.

It has survived the past two years out of pure motivation. It is currently at a stage where I'm happy with what is there, and at the same time it still needs more work. The difficult part is when you start integrating toolkits such as EWL and ETK, and you realize, hmm this and that don't work.
