Hello everyone! Most the comments from the theme so far have been "that looks like OSX" and "that's not Ubuntu." Here's something to address that, I think. Might I suggest an alternate color scheme which would be more Ubuntu-like:

I don't think I've introduced myself formally (though I sent one misguided message to this list already): I'm the one who drafted the first mockup of Dust. I'm Rico Sta. Cruz, a graphic/web designer. Would certainly love to contribute what I can, just not sure how (I'm sending this message via Nabble since I'm not too familiar with the list yet). The first Dust mockups were half-baked. The icons were ripped from Mac (taken with a screenshot, and overlooked) and the Firefox theme rather ugly. I'm really glad you guys are taking steps forward into introducing and iterating the Dust concept, and I'm ready to contribute whatever you all need me to for this effort.
