At first I didn't like this theme, but it is really growing on me. Of coarse there are things that still need work. The orange in the theme feels out of place. It just doesn't fit it because of how heavy the browns are. I think using white as the selected item color in the menus would look a lot better. I also think that the notification area needs to use different colors. It needs to stand out more. Now it hardly stands out at all since it is the same color as the background behind it, and of most windows. Speaking of the windows, I really like the way the titlebar and menu bar are visuially connected int the active window. In the unactive window where it looks like just a gradient from brown to tan looks very ugly to me.
<br><br>I think this theme is about the prettiest a brown theme could be, but we would still get a lot of flac from the brown haters if this were default. I hope that it works well with the color options in the appearence settings so that keeping the theme but using a different color is just a couple of clicks worth of work.

Got the link, and thanks to <cite>Racoqster</cite> for the quick post on the blog. I know about every language BUT python, so I can try to learn python this weekend and assist in coding later if absolutely necessary; Would it be possible to work without the configurator?

I'll be downloading some themes that resemble mine (in their technical composition) and start to figure out how we could get this beast into a live environment! The XCF source is almost useless, but it can make life easy if anyone wants to make a mockup with icons & text.
<br><br><cite></cite>The large mockup doesn't include the most recent requests (several of which will be integrated), but it gives the closest impression to what a full desktop would look like right now - barring the lack of widgets.
