POLL: New 'Industrial' Theme for Ubuntu

[sebgate20]

At Evolution Colt, we have created a 'new' Industrial Theme based upon the Industrial Theme in Novell Linux Desktop but changed for Ubuntu.

We think this theme provides a professional blue look which is clear and concise. However, we are currently debating on whether this should be released externally. So, if you are interested in such a theme, vote here! I hope to provide some screenshots later.

The Theme consists of:

1. Human Icon Theme
2. New Evolution Colt GDM Theme
3. New Evolution Colt GNOME Splash Screen
4. Several Evolution Colt Backgrounds based upon the same theme
5. Evolution Colt Logo replacing GNOME Logo on Icon Bar

Thanks Again for your help

waiting for the screenshot, but anyway, it is always good to have more choice :)

not at all

I would be slightly interested, depends on seeing a screenshot.

You may get a better response in a thread like What's your preferred theme? (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=35967)

This section might not be the right place for this.


EDIT: Much better now seeing this here in Art Talk instead of Tips & Tricks :razz:

why would a theme change your gnome icon in the panel?

Well, the gnome-icon is *supposed* to be part of the theme change, so if you change your theme to say, lila, it has the gentoo "g" icon ... that way it all matches nice & neat. :)

why evolution colt website its sooo simlar to spread firefox?

[weekend warrior]

Heh, they really are similar >>> spreadfirefox (http://www.spreadfirefox.com/) 8-[

Maybe they're based on some template?

I knew you would say that. If I were a betting woman, I would have just made money off of you.

The Evolution Colt IS based upon the SpreadFirefox Drupal Template. Something wrong with that?

Anyway, here is the first screenshot of the Desktop. This is just showing the basic stuff. I'm working out how to take a shot of the Splash Screen and GDM Theme.

Thanks

Managed to use Xnest to get the GDM theme. Sorry it is an irregular shape but this is due to the Xnest window!

Comments please.

Officially, the person you would want to talk to about themes is Jeff Waugh. Also, clearlooks seems to be the default engine, and blue seems to be out in favour of brown.

But the human icon them should be default for Breezy.

That being said, I don't like blue but it looks good.

No, just curious that's all. The GDM is nice - clean and straightforward.

Please release this theme/iconset. It's the one thing I miss since coming from SuSE

[royg1234]

I hope "Defiantly" is a mispelling of "Definitely", because that's what I voted for (the affirmative)

[carlc]

Defiantly Interested..?? I am checking this because I think that people do not want me to check it. Actually, it looks good. I think there would be an interest in it.

They probably both use drupal, which has a theme like that...
