what I can't believe is that you, along with a few others, react as if 
we've got a problem with the photos themselves! I don't mind the skin! 
I'm using the theme on my home machine!

The vast majority of those of us that found issue with the theme are 
against the simple fact that this was thrust upon us without any sort of 
notification or dialog. It's simply unacceptable for many of us to use 
this theme in our workplace. For many more, it's inappropriate to use it 
day to day. All I'm saying is this: to reach the widest audience 
possible, this cannot remain the default theme.
