Please allow me to speak frankly: I don't really see what all the fuss is about with that Droid font. Deja Vu Sans is a beautiful font, especially the Condensed version I use as my UI font. It supports many languages and looks quite modern without being very blocky as Troy calls it. Droid has

2006-05-25 Thread Jimmy Angelakos
Hi, I apologise if this has been posted on this list before. Currently, the Human theme has a grey background, #E8E2DD, which is quite cold (IMHO) and does not fit the warm new theme. Would it be possible to change it to something a bit warmer but still light, such as #EDE2D8 ? Thanks, Jimmy --
