New Human Theme

[mstlyevil]

Is there a plan for updating the theme of the forums to the new Ubuntulooks Human Theme being developed for Dapper? I am using it in Dapper right now and it is quite a change from the old Human theme being used in Breezy.

Yes the new theme in dapper is quite cozy I think...:D :D

You're on the staff and don't know ?? :)

No disrespect to those who worked on the new theme and the designers of Tango, but i can't stand it.

I always thought brown was a really unfortunate color to use for a theme, but i've grown to find it quite soothing on the eyes.. makes you feel very much "at home"..for some reason.

But the orange window bars and such, wow, it's a no go for me.

For the most part, the forums try to match http://www.ubuntu.com as closely as possible.

If/When they change the home page, we also will change.

The tango icons reflect the icon theme in dapper... so that part has... mostly... already been changed.

We try to keep the themes universal to the forum software - so that when we add plugins, updates, and extras to the forum software, we don't need to spend three weeks updating the theme code as well.

Unfortunately, no matter what choices we make to the theme here, someone will hate it.

I am not an admin plus I thought other people might be curious so I asked here.

Staff normally don't deal with the servers, forum software, maintenance, etc.
