If you've got an idea for a new look<br>> that could ship alongside the default, or want to work towards<br>> something that you think might one day challenge for the default spot,<br>> then jump in, the water's great. We tend to work in small groups on<br>> themes, so alongside people with a strong vision who can lead a team<br>> we need plenty of others that can work together to help get a great<br>> complete, cohesive look. This involves designers, packagers, GTK+<br>> themeing experts (hey, even QT theme experts are welcome :P) and we<br>> could certainly do with a few more hackers. If you're any of those<br>> things, or think you want to be soon, then you should be at home in<br>> this team.<br>> <br>> <br>> Oh, and we'd really like you to have a look at<br>> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posting_style - we much prefer anyone to<br>> avoid top posting wherever possible on this list. Along with the<br>> reasons at wikipedia, it upsets the aesthetic, and, well, we're an<br>> aesthetic-loving kinda group ;)"<br><br>The Question is "Who the hell makes the default theme ?". Does anybody know ?<br><br>~ Mogambo<br><br>> <br>> -- <br>> ubuntu-art mailing list<br>> ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com<br>> https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art<br><br /><hr /> <a href='' target='_new'></a></body>
