the caramel brown of the window title really clashes with the more
redder brown of the progress bars in that screenshot. anyone else agree?
it looks like they come from two completely different palettes..

the FWD/BACK arrows are from yet another palette altogether.  as with
the current Human theme, we see the same problem with the archive icon
on the desktop and the caramel folder colour.. this looks ugly and
hacked together. 

for the next iteration of the default theme, i'd be just as happy with a
unified colour palette of the above proposal as i would a whole new
design direction. we've seen some great palettes posted to this list in
the last couple of weeks. why not just pick one and run with it? 

there's not much time left - perhaps a sane move at this late stage.

cheers,

julian

I'll take a look at that.  How did you guys envision it?  
 
Maybe we can get some quick progress bar mockups?

[Who]

That's cool...

We talked about 'tweaks' - and one area I really think could do with a
tweak is the progressbar - it sticks out a lot further than any other
element (well, "sticks out"...you know what I mean?)

Could you have a look at that and present a few possibilities to Kwwii?

Panel is a pixbuf referenced from within the gtkrc which I really don't like 
how I did that particular one.
 
I read a while back that gnome was planning to make the panel themeable, but I 
have not seen any more mention of it.
