yeah, i agree.

the mockups we've seen here recently are too rich and heavy for my tastes. 
this is far less intrusive, it 'backgrounds itself' so to speak, and
would as such allow window contents (the work people do) to step
forward.

it also has a strong sense of form without deferring to cheap gloss: that 
top panel shadow could also be faked just fine on a compiz incapable 
machine..

the bottom panel though looks well beyond the scope of GTK/Gnome of
course..

the designer has talent, especially for overall colour weighting/balancing.
is/was he/she a list member?

cheers,

julian
