Artwork packages

[Vincent]

Oh, I just saw some more...

I really, really like the blue modified tango icon theme at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/Artwork/Proposed/Misc . However, (my
personal opinion though) I don't like grey user interfaces... I liked the
colours of Clearlooks, however, I favour the Murrine engine for its speed.
How about a Clearlooks based Murrina-theme? For example, there's
MurrinaFancyClearlooks, at
http://xfce-look.org/content/show.php?content=48681
Or (shameless self-promotion) my MurrinaLooks theme at
http://xfce-look.org/content/show.php?content=52752 (perhaps set the
roundness to 0 because that also speeds it up a little bit).

Regards,

Vincent
