I cannot do theme coding myself, but if it is possible then the Canonical people should be able to pull it off pretty easily. >>What is the theme you created on the wiki?

This will be my third. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/Intrepid/Gimmie-Human https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/Long_Term_Vision Both of the previous themes I submitted were VERY complex, and would be almost impossible to implement in any reasonable time-frame. I even started a launchpad site for Long Term Vision, but so far have not been able to motivate any themers to help. In any event, I am now inclined to think a radical/drastic visual overhaul is neither necessary nor desirable. The Human theme (minus its window borders) has always been my favorite. Even though I never cared for the window borders or max/min buttons, the mellowness of Human is just the least jarring out of anything I have ever seen on GNOME-Look (outside of the apple clones). I think the new theme should strive to be as inoffensive as possible to the greatest number of people, while still introducing reasonable UI improvements and subtle beauty. Regards, Brian
