Nope. It's more a recommendation. And if a distro wants to be "Canonical-friendly", as in resource helped, just what happened right now (being an official flavour) that distro must show an homogeneous style through its development during the release cycle. I mean, you can't make a distro look as green as OpenSuse today and the next version going black as CrunchBang.<BR>
<BR>
That's why Xubuntu is getting more "gray" and why Ubuntu is getting a big change from that brown to a more personal style (and being not mac-ish purposely). The users also wait for "something of the same but better". But this doesn't mean we can make subtile variations into a path or another. The original artwork for LXDE was absolutely black and vivid green on wallpaper, more like Windows Vista first releases <IMG SRC="cid:1328119591.1866.8.camel@omega" ALIGN="middle" ALT=":|" BORDER="0"><BR>
<BR>
But no, Canonical doesn't explicitely order us to be blue. That restriction means continuity and logic (the colour war for complaining every personal taste has no sense, that will conclude on making a thousand themes and even not getting the point). This style is more our fingerprint, and so it's getting approved by users (in fact it can be voted out and being rejected) I think we're consolidating a long term corporative style.<BR>

Again no option for colour (sorry) for us and Xubuntu devs (also Kubuntu are "slaved" to its plasmoid style) due to "Canonical restrictions".<BR>

Hello again, Rafael,<BR>
<BR>
Are you saying that we "have" to use that color on the new wallpaper for Lubuntu 12.04 just because Canonical wants that?<BR>
<BR>
Thank you :)<BR>

Hi, people:<BR>
<BR>
I have updated the artwork (again). I REALLY recommend you to replace your Ozone3 theme with this one (a lot of improvements solve several bugs). Also, the wallpaper is ready (after a selection process). Again no option for colour (sorry) for us and Xubuntu devs (also Kubuntu are "slaved" to its plasmoid style) due to "Canonical restrictions".<BR>
<BR>
If you feel better, the new artwork package will include all previous Lubuntu themes and some walls by the Flickr community. Check out: <A HREF="https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/Artwork/Incoming/Precise/Ozone">https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/Artwork/Incoming/Precise/Ozone</A><BR>
<BR>
As always, feedback is appreciated. Thanks.<BR>
