Well, other than the outdated themes, there are two other major areas that I can recommend trimming some fat: the massive overstock of built-in screensavers; and the bloat of outdated games. Sorry to say it, but when was the last time anybody really needed to change their screensavers avery day for two years and never repeat? ;) But seriously, most of those screensavers and games are pretty ugly and/or not fun. I can't think the space might not be better used elsewhere, like including better wallpapers, which people do change frequently. Anybody else want to chime in on areas that could be trimmed?

Regards, > Brian Fleeger Until now the biggest problem with getting more pics in has been the size of the CD image. In Hardy we included one extra pic and I was hoping on including one or two more this time as well. I'd also like to go through the gnome themes and remove all the older, outdated ones and include some nicer, newer stuff...perhaps that would be a subject on which everyone could vote. -- Ken -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art
