 I just did a big update on the IndustrialInspirate theme wiki page - It now includes everything that is needed for it to be a very complete and consistent theme. It just needs to be packaged See:
 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ArtworkTeam/IndustrialInspirate For the information about the themeAlso see the screenshot I just made here
http://mailforwho.googlepages.com/Screenshot.png/Screenshot-full.pngI admit I didn't try out the full theme, but that screenie looks pretty cool :-D
There are not many brown tones in it (to hint the Ubuntu heritage) but I'm not sure that we have to require this (espicially for a desktop unifying theme like yours). Good work!I cannot help you with packaging, but this bundle would get +1 from me for inclusion - I believe that there is a real market for unifying themes like this.
Cheers,Mikkel

I just did a big update on the IndustrialInspirate theme wiki page -

For the information about the theme

Can anyone point me in the direction of some information on how to
package this up. Especially problematic I think will be the
qindustrial theme engine for KDE, which I can currently only find
source for (but builds fine on my Dapper box). I assume this kind of
thing will be low priority until Dapper+1 as it involves bug testing
of 'new' code, etc. However, the theme will still be very good without
it.

I will try to make a single 'theme' .tar.gz that includes the
industrial gtkrc, the icons and the metacity, but I don't know how to
go about including the Firefox, Evolution XMMS and GDM themes. Any
ideas?

I would appreciate a few comments on whether people think we should go
with the Dustry theme instead of Industrial. Notably, it has much
nicer scrollbars and radiobuttons. The _only_ reason I haven't chosen
this is that it uses 3 theme engines.

Any input is welcome.
