Hi

Including a personal ubuntu gnome-shell theme does not exclude at all to keep the original adwaita theme installed automatically It would only give a more personal touch to ubuntu gnome - that's one thing i am missing a bit

"I propose to stick with it and let upstream GNOME designers decide what's the best default theme for us."

Really ..
Canonical did also decide for us what the right desktop should be .... :)

Hi,

this is not the first time that the idea of an original theme is
proposed. In my humble opinion, the theme that should be used in Ubuntu
GNOME should the default GNOME theme. After all, Ubuntu GNOME's goal is
to deliver a near-upstream GNOME experience. More over, the default
GNOME theme was created in order to provide a very conservative default
that anyone is free to change but that should be as uncontroversial as
possible. And I think Adwaita is the perfect theme for that. That's why
I propose to stick with it and let upstream GNOME designers decide
what's the best default theme for us.

Hi

I am a theme designer - and i would like to propose my help

I think it would be important that Ubuntu Gnome gets a more individual
design -it's own theme - that reflects the identity of gnome and the one
of ubuntu

My actual 2 themes ORANGE (till now called Darkair)  and BLO - both
created this year have been already donloaded >20.000 times on gnome-look
since -- new versions to be published this week

I am not proposing that one of my 2 themes should be taken as default
theme - i am proposing the creation of a new theme that has not necessary
to be so different to the original theme as these 2 are (but - why not?)

This ubuntu-gnome theme should include
- individual ubuntu-gnome backgrounds selected the same way ubuntu
backgrounds
- a gtk2/3 theme
- a metacity theme
- a gnome-shell theme
- probably a gnome-shell plugin for a better finetuning of the design - or
the automatic install of some existing plugins to get an even better
look (ex: remove the horizontal lines in System menu - see sshot7)

Some links to screenshots of my actual work
