I do think it is very powerful, and if the drop down menu is kept, perhaps we can think about making it appear in the same style as the rest of the design instead of consisting of a default drop down menu as any would be rendered. The bottom part of the screen is brown and thus the drop down menu could be brown as well, positioned correctly to not overlap the bottom bar and touch the left side of the screen. Maybe we can touch this issue during the polish phase, as I don't think it would take that much effort. >> I do find it too bad that it lacks the ability to work as well in >> bright shades as blue, which is why I applaud the direction >> towards combining brown with orange and even yellow/red hue >> accents that Dapper made possible. > Yes, that was a nice little bit of serendipity :-) > > Mark Yeah, and I'm glad that Edgy is making sure we don't forget about brown. Orange is an excellent color, but doesn't work as well as brown with darker tints. So if we allow ourselves to juggle around those colors effectively, there's no doubt we'll be way ahead of Fedora in terms of art distinction and direction.
