Here is a theme I've been working on for a few months with Ubuntu specifically kept in mind during the development. It is rather dark, but remains extremely easy on the eyes while maintaining a certain shine. I believe this has the originality and usability that could benefit the Ubuntu Desktop. This theme was developed with the help and input from many members of the artwork community. The color base is largely inspired by the GDM that appeared in Jaunty. After seeing those colors together, I realized an accompanying theme would be aesthetically pleasing and not done by many others. I am hosting the project on Launchpad and have yet to create a Wiki on Ubuntu-Artwork. Any bugs, feedback, thoughts, input, would be greatly appreciated. It's at 0.2 release, but actually much more stable than the version would imply. https://launchpad.net/hanso http://www.ubuntu-pics.de/bild/16945/screenshot_003_EGqG4J.png http://www.ubuntu-pics.de/bild/16946/screenshot_r3Xy2e.png http://www.ubuntu-pics.de/bild/16947/screenshot1_LJqnDG.png http://www.ubuntu-pics.de/bild/16948/screenshot2_tjS0xl.png Along with the beauty and functionality of GNOME-Do and community effort of the Breathe Icon Set, this could make for an exciting alternate desktop. Here is the theme download via Launchpad for testing. http://launchpad.net/hanso/0.2/0.2/+download/Hanso.tar.gz Thanks, James -- ubuntu-art mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art
