Hi Frank. I've added my commentary to the page. Perhaps the rest can  
go in and say what they feel? I think that the theme is fine except  
for some minor things that we could consider changing. There is one  
major change that I would like to propose, but I will show this later  
once I get some screenshots out (I will add these to the wikipage as  
well).

I would also like to stress the importance of accessibility to the  
designers. I personally think that at the very least, the title bar  
should have different colors, since it is just a little bit too  
bright at the moment. There has been made a bug report about it  
(https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/ubuntulooks/+bug/37603).

Well, off to the drawing table.

[ubuntu-art] Suggestions for polishing the Human GTK theme

2006-08-02 Thread Frank Schoep
Hello artists,

Following up on a recent request by Chuck Huber and ongoing  
collaboration with Troy, I've added a new page to the Wiki for  
sharing ideas and comments regarding the polishing of the Human GTK  
theme for Edgy. The page is rather empty at the moment, but I'm  
counting on your expertise to fill in the gaps.

What we need is ideas for making the Dapper GTK theme better and look  
more polished and in line with the artwork we're doing for Edgy. Some  
ideas that we'll consider are fully rounded window borders and  
changing around a few colors. Besides those, I'm sure there's plenty  
of room for other design improvements and I'm looking forward to hear  
from you all.

If you have a suggestion, please take the time to create a small  
picture visualizing your thoughts and add it to the following Wiki page:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Specs/PolishHumanGTKTheme/Incoming

The current deadline for submissions is set at the 10th of August,  
which leaves a bit more than a week. I think that's a reasonable  
amount of time to get your submissions in. Thanks a lot for your time  
and let's get the ideas flowing.

With kind regards,

Frank Schoep
