Hi guys,

I've just upgraded to Dapper (last week) thanks to everyone for the great
work, keep it up.

First of all I would like to say that I love the modified clearlooks
(ubuntulooks), it's really nice and provides (finally) and fresh and not
windows like look.

I've seen many discussion regarding the new icon theme and color scheme, I
would just like to point out some cool artwork that you can find on
gnome-look.org and that IMHO deserve some attention.

There is a really good artist (Billy Cantrell (bvc)) that does some really
amazing themes, for example check out:

http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=33574
http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=36017

they are both usable with ubuntulooks (just change clearlooks to ubuntulooks
and remove the scrollbar color option) and look very professional and
polished IMHO.

A nice cursor theme that is probably the most complete you can find around
and that provides Drag&Drop icons (supported by GTK 2.8), you can see those
icons in action when you drag something with nautilus for example:

http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=28310

Ok, that's all.

Thanks again guys and sorry for the intrusion.

Ciao
Michele

PS
I noticed that the notification-daemon has switched to an IMHO horrible
yellow bubble, is this the final look? the previous one looks way more
professional to me. ;-)
