Hey guy's, I've been trying to find a comfortable, unique, nice look for Ubuntu. So far, no luck, I have also been checking out the screen shot thread, but nothing has caught my eye yet.

So, any advice? Maybe show me a screen of your desktop? I don't know, I just want something pleasing to the eyes, but simple.... but unique, not like an OS X theme or whatever. Thanks a lot guys! :D

IMPORTANT NOTES:
Blur doesn't work for me.
Reflections doesn't work me.

you want us to give you screenshots? the same folks that are submitting screenshots daily, weekly, and sometimes hourly (chucky chuckaluck) in the stickied screenshot thread?

did you REALLY look at that thread or previous ones? there are all kinds of killer examples. both subtle and extreme and everything in between.

Just install Awesome and stop thinking about how your desktop looks instead of how it works :D


I'd say the same as the guy ↑ above ↑ me ↑

A Vista bootleg-wannabe look, with penguins of madagascar all over it, prominently wine'ing iTunes and Steam with a Counter-Strike server list hovering over a wine'd mIRC.*



*not really

I like Human Compact Small icons (http://martin.ankerl.com/2008/11/04/human-compact-themes-for-ubuntu-810/) with GNOME colors (http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/GNOME-colors?content=82562) icons, the Dust window border (Metacity), and the neutral (http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Neutral?content=28310) mouse theme.

Kiefer Sutherland was killed by Jack Bauer today. Jack Bauer gets played by no man.

There is no one best look, as it is a personal matter. Here is mine.
