Hello art community! I would like to post my "Intuition" gtk-theme:

-it is based on the ubuntulooks engine
-it fully supports custom colors
-it has a normal and an inverted panel version
-it contains a metacity theme as well as an emerald theme
-i included a replacement thumbnail_frame.png

the first two features should grant a certain degree of flexibility that in my opinion is in the idea of free software, users can easily change it.
also my intention was to create a "modest" theme, letting me focus on the "content" rather than the gui. ah yes, about that "content": when i first used ubuntu one thing that irritated me were the thick borders around thumbnails in nautilus, to me they still look very oldish. the one i included is a simple shadow. what do you think?

now a general question: what exactly should a theme for intrepid consist of?
-gtk-engine / pixmap?
a new/improved gtk-engine? (in my opinion the only real solution, pixmap themes are too unflexible and ubuntulooks is good but could be better)
-emerald / metacity / both?

ok, that was my first post, hope i made no serious mistakes, here is the link:
