Karmic was my first ubuntu and it was ok but Lucid really put a smile on my face. I really like the purple.

Well, technically, for Radiance, it still is sorta 'brown'.
But I'll admit, the Human theme in karmic has an attractive 'human' warmth to it, that other themes don't.

I usually just go with the default. I'm more interested in performance than look I guess.
Ubuntu 11.04, Mac OS X 10.4.11
I don't know what to do now!
I saw a thread where users were enthusing about the colour schemes in Warty and Gutsy and who knows what other versions. And I thought Kewl, cos I had a bunch of old CDs - Breezy, Feisty, Gutsy, Hardy... so I figured I could stick some old colour schemes into my more modern installation and have some real old school things going on...
But then I checked my Ubuntu CD drawer and... OMG I dunno what's happened! I can find only the CDs for Jaunty and Karmic! My collection of old Ubuntu CDs has disappeared! I can't believe I threw them out (I'm a real hoarder, you know?) - but they're gone! So now I'm flummoxed! What am I gonna do?
Still, the news that Lucid has gone purple is pretty interesting. I've been a major fan of purple since my primary school days; so maybe I'll upgrade to Lucid and go purple. That'll be nice I guess.
But I am seriously hacked off about the disappearing CDs. I had a nice collection of ye olde Ubuntus forming, and now they seem to have nearly all gone! Never again shall I see Breezy's godawful interface! What a downer!
Can anyone point me in the right direction for downloads of the old themes and colour schemes. Breezy and its ilk looked dreadful, but that's all part of the fun isn't it! I'm gonna go search some more cupboards. I WANT MY BREEZY!!!!!

Before 10.04, I would have agreed that Brown was absolutely fine. Honestly, its not something I really care about all that much, and I guess yeah, I thought it was organic and original. But the improvement in Lucid has changed me. With Ambiance, now my desktop actually feels slick. Much nicer than any other mainstream distro IMHO.
