Oh, I just saw some more... I really, really like the blue modified tango icon theme at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/Artwork/Proposed/Misc . However, (my personal opinion though) I don't like grey user interfaces... I liked the colours of Clearlooks, however, I favour the Murrine engine for its speed. How about a Clearlooks based Murrina-theme? For example, there's MurrinaFancyClearlooks, at http://xfce-look.org/content/show.php?content=48681 Or (shameless self-promotion) my MurrinaLooks theme at http://xfce-look.org/content/show.php?content=52752 (perhaps set the roundness to 0 because that also speeds it up a little bit).

Jozsef, I agree with the others that perhaps it should be a bit more unified, but I can understand that this is difficult for the Usplash as you're forced to put it on black. I do like the wallpapers, both of them, Viper550's a tad better, but it could be a bit glossier. As for the text "Xubuntu" underneath the logo: it is done well IMHO, however, the colours don't really match, it's too light-blue... The text in the Usplash seems OK, though perhaps better if you make it blue letters with black shade?
