I'll post a huge mockup with all elements within a couple hours (I'm starting it after I finish this message), and I'll post the SVG source in a link below it. Once it's completed, I'll also post links to everything to the mailing list as well. That way we have a single image that can reference all elements in a single place.
<br><br>There's pressure for a black and orange theme, and several other colours (Ubuntu Studio look-alike and a silver/pearl theme); if I can, I'll post mockups for those tonight as well in a second wiki sub-section (it's enough maintaining the main wiki with a single alternate set of colours, so a new sub-section will help me keep updates cleaner and more regular). Also, since it's only colour swaps for the most part, if and when alternate themes are added, we'll be able to just swap out graphics and colours when the time comes.
<br><br>Is there a way that we can allow users to select colours in an SVG-based theme? If there is, then I can make any changes necessary in order to give users that option. Otherwise, I can just make several versions of the colouring scheme. Also, should I get ahold of Ubuntu Studio and other Ubuntu-based distros and see if they might want variations of the theme?
<br><br>Anyway, after the update tell me if there's anything more anyone needs. I'll send links to the content when I have it ready.<br>Thanks;<br>-Ken V<br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Dec 17, 2007 12:26 PM, xl cheese <

<br><br>So far though, if it looks good enough to everyone, we could narrow down what's possible and what's not - I know this theme has several technical hurdles; But maybe if we get something working we could iron it out and see what's possible...
