Great post, I would recommend that you make it a bit handier to share this to some social media sites, throw up a big add to stumble button or something in a few places that are obvious. No sense in making it too much work to add your stuff. Also, I really like your comment layout here, is it the default setup for your theme or did you customize it?

you guys need to let it be, you probably don’t even use ubuntu 100%. If you like blue and green, then use fedora and vista. However you should never leave feedback for ubuntu again on the grounds that orange and brown are very kool retro colors that are eye pleasing and neutral. Besides there is always kde. Our main concerns should not be changing colors, but broadening our support spectrum.

Didn’t tested Lucid Lynx yet but doesn’t look back. I like the changes.

chvnx: I’m inclined to agree about the purple. personally I’m more into blue/green, but I know Fedora uses blue by default and Suse uses green. Perhaps they’re trying to set themselves apart.

Ubuntu themes are always so ugly. I hate the use of orange, brown and purple. Their designers must be color blind.

to get the themes in karmic, toy should do the following:

1. add this to your sources.list: ppa:nilarimogard/webupd8
2. sudo apt-get update
3. install/update following packages:

gtk2-engines-murrine
ubuntu-mono
light-themes
gtk2-engines-aurora

choose either ambience or radience theme, log out and log in.

I hope the new black theme is a work in progress. I really don’t like it. The wallpaper is nice, that’s about it.

I’ll cry forever if they really make it look more like Mac. I just don’t like Mac, and there’s really no reason in particular, it just rubs me the wrong way.
