I agree. I've spend one year of free time (not all my free time, but a good
part) to create Radiance and another year for the super green and orange
Bodhi Forum Theme.
I haven't used a lot of GUI, anyway.
Good luck! :)

Maybe.
But the idea of default style seems to me sobriety...

Jeff,
I feel the same way as those posters, just
First a disclaimer: I Love Enlightenment and use it as my main
workstation OS. While I only started using it full-time last year, I
have been following it's development since 1997. As things stand, I
would not want to use another system.
The ugly and awful truth from my perspective: yes,
Jeff,
you are right that those guys do not really say anything helpful. I am
using the default theme and I find it both beautiful and usable, as well
as Enlightenment as a whole. It is very carefully engineered and not
getting in the way.
To me, the theme is classic, yet very polished,
Ugly: matter of taste. I've always liked the default themes a lot, and
some others in the old pre-E17 days. The color variations on the old
bw theme not so much. Inconsistency with gtk themes is the problem for
me. It's very hard to find a good dark gtk theme, that doesn't mess up

Jeff,
Red, orange, brown are not suitable colors for desktop environment. I suspect
you used orange as a menu highlight to symbolically indicate that Bodhi is an
ubuntu derivative.
Not a good choice. Take it out. Mark Shuttleworth is an artistic illiterate.
