[ubuntu-art] 10.10 Impression GTK Themes

[j_baer]

Hello Everyone,

I'm pleased to announce the availability of the Alpha release of the
Impression and Night Impression 10.10 GTK themes for Maverick Meerkat.

These themes may be tested with either Maverick or Lucid with the latest
Murrine theme engine is installed. 

Packages are available from the 
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/Maverick/ImpressionGtkThemes Ubuntu
Wiki . Screen shots may be viewed at

Enhanced Metacity Theme

Metacity code improvements should speed execution and the improved window
control buttons offer simplicity in design with an intuitive approach to
operation.

Re-designed GTK

Many improvements are available from enhancements made to the Murrine GTK
engine providing a level of presentation second to none.

The Impression series uses a gradient scroll bar and progress bar trough
introduced by the Ambiance and Radiance themes. Muted, not bold; scroll bars
are available but not in the way.

Note book tabs are themed to provide a higher level of focus to the selected
tab. Clicking a tab presents an illusion of movement as the selected tab
becomes bright and the others fall to the shadows.

Tool bars maintain a hint of shading to provide a measured amount of depth
to the presentation.

Scale controls follow the same design philosophy as scroll bars as the
slider control button is muted until needed.

Finally, the palette of Impression is the traditional warm gray splashed
with Orange and the palette of Night Impression is a cool gray accentuated
with Aubergine.

Vibrant and exciting these themes deliver a powerful intuitive user
experience and a consistent Ubuntu look and feel.

Enjoy!
