This is NOT constructive criticism of someone else's work! Please choose your words more carefully in future.

In my opinion, to prevent brown from looking like, well, what brown's usual connotation is, the theme needs to be smooth and clean. This includes the use of smooth textures, matte preferred and Dapper's current light tans also help, but browns and glosses can work just as well.

JMak did an excellent job of this in his login screens. He kept the same brown or tan hue throughout and the background was a plain matte circular gradient like Dapper's login.

Junel Mujar also made some excellent backgrounds using very muted tones here.

Both good pointers. Troy Sobotka just called for more comments to help get Edgy's artwork nailed, so your timing is good.
