I think the process is: - people work on a variety of themes and mockups - the art team gets together and picks one, two or three themes that are very distinctive (i.e. not just variations of the standard ubuntu theme) - we pick leaders and committers for each of those themes - we ask everyone on the art list to work on those specific themes to polish them up, under the direction of the theme leaders - we release Dapper with the ones that are relatively complete and very good-looking, in main Mark -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art

I think we are supposed to be using Jimmac's cursor theme, which I think is lovely, but it may be worth a review and suggestions.Yep, Jimmac's one is pretty nice I think this (Neutral) can work as a nice second choice since it uses the same style but with black cursors, it's really well done.Anyway those are the icon names needed for DND cursors if someone wants to add them to Jimmac's theme: - dnd-none - dnd-copy - dnd-link - dnd-move - dnd-ask The shape of the popup is fixed, the close icon needs work, the background colour isn't final.Ok.Thanks for the attention, keep up the great work.CiaoMichele -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art

The popup color is nice with human theme, but as soon as you change it for something else, it looks really strange. IMO it should use the gtk theme colors, or a boring color like the new old popup. PS I noticed that the notification-daemon has switched to an IMHO horrible yellow bubble, is this the final look? the previous one looks way more professional to me. ;-) The shape of the popup is fixed, the close icon needs work, the background colour isn't final.

A nice cursor theme that is probably the most complete you can find around and that provides Drag&Drop icons (supported by GTK 2.8), you can see those icons in action when you drag something with nautilus for example: Ah, thats interesting.
