The only concept which could be used to start from is the "Gelatin" one, even if it should be slightly modified to match a black and orange palette IMO, like in the "Element" mockup: http://lassekongo83.deviantart.com/art/Elements-VS-82691770
As Sumit said, we should keep main theme elements such as dialogue/application backgrounds, menubars, and possibly titlebars color-neutral, but give scrollbars and buttons strong colors (Ubuntu colors? Orange?) so that they visually stand-out. -- ubuntu-art mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art
