I made a two ubuntish theme.
A metacity theme Humanos. not to good.
And a very good and fast gtk theme Human Vision.
I post it into art.ubuntu.com but the status is on pending from a by period.
look this:
Theme submissions
Status of submitted theme
Name Category Status

Humanos metacity Pending
Human Vision gtk2 Pending

Background submissions
Status of submitted backgrounds

Name Category Status
ubuntu-default ubuntu Added

Is this right?
bye

Because AUC is a usability nightmare at the moment. It's hard to update it as it requires lots of manual work to be done (no imagemagick at the moment etc.) There's also a learning curve for normal user as the navigation isn't very usable.

As you mentioned, they are pending. A screenshot should be done before putting themes online (and this isn't even mentioned AUC, FAQ is still undone). AUC will most likely have themes for different *buntus in future, but Artweb doesn't scale well to that kind of changes. Therefore CMS change is a possibility. Hopefully this will be done before Dapper gets released.

Anyways, thanks for your input! :???:
