I wish they'd get rid of the brown colours completely.

It's not pleasant.

Re: Do u like Intrepid Ibex alpha 1 theme?

The theme is blantantly ugly to say the least. I would rather they stay with the current theme.
The developers should come here at Ubuntuforums and ask which kind of theme would we prefer.

I find darkish themes hard to read, and that grey/brown/whatever is both hard to read and downright ugly to my eyes.

Having said that, still support brown as the default.

I think the Orange and Chocolate is a bit of an acquired taste, and I've not quite acquired it yet. Still, in a way it's doing it's job, most people seem to link Orange or Brown with Ubuntu. So the branding is working.

No we should make the bars orange, I don't like darkish themes.

Re: Do u like Intrepid Ibex alpha 1 theme?

I'm not sure if I like it or not. I think the brown is nice, and having darker theme is always nice too (as I mostly work in dimly lit environment).

But the theme is somewhat lacking in contrast, making it look kind of dull. Also the brown is not a good choise for background color in applications (as seen on screenshots of gnome-terminal & OO.org), it has a bad contrast even with black text, not to mention what's going to happen when the text becomes colored..
