[ubuntu-art] Hardy GTK Theme

[Neil J Patel]

Hey,

A friend pointed me to this thread, I'm the author of those mockups :-).

I've never really had the time to work on this, life stuff keeps
getting in the way, but if anyone does take it forward, I'd definitely
like to help out, either by coding or designing more complete
mock-ups.

Two  things thats missing from these mockups is that, with the recent
advances in Gtk with transparency, it'll be nice to have the theme
manipulate the transparency of things like dialog & configuration
windows (obviously it has no effect if in a non-composited
environment). Secondly, I think that animations are quite important
now, like while hovering over a button, it would pulse.

Obviously, both these things can quickly become annoying if done
incorrectly, but I'm sure it won't come to that, and anyway, as long
as there's an option to switch it off... :-).

Regards,

Neil
