Does anyone actually like the default colors?

[nigelenki]

The default theme is nice, but the color scheme ... first brown, now orange? Seriously, Ubuntu's got about the ugliest color scheme of any distro I've ever seen, the first order of business I have is always changing to something else.

What themes do you mostly use anyway? Anything but brown/orange, or does everyone pretty much stick to the default?

Actually, I didn't really like the brown in Hoary and Breezy, but I like the orange in Dapper.

I like it on Dapper, and this is the one I'm using right now!!!

Same as aysui, I didn't like the brown but I do like the orange. I used to change to just about anything but these days stick with the default.

I love the orange.. I actually switched KDE's colour scheme to it, too...for a more unified look.

Blue and Silver are boring...let's face it.. how many OSes come dressed in blue, silver, white and all that? Ubuntu is being innovative. And while the brown of hoary and breezy was not so cool, the orange of Dapper is beautiful.

Still, tastes abound.

Another me too. Didn't like the brown, but I like the orange. I really like the icons, the scroll bars, the waiting bar thingie...

So true, ubuntu really stands out now :D

blue = fedora, windows + 100 others

orange = dapper!

orange is cool but brown is very tricky to get right and it's best to avoid

I know it makes Dapper stand out, but one of the first things I do on any install is change the theme. I find Clearlooks controls, Human window border, and Tango icons a good combo, and I call it "Clumango" or "Bleumango".

This has been discussed plenty of times before. I love the orange theme in Dapper but I don't like the default wallpaper. Change the wallpaper to something that matches better, make the panels transparent, and the default theme looks awesome. :cool:

I also like using a dark blue version of the default theme (ubuntulooks-industrial) along with Tango icons and a matching wallpaper.

What does the default look like? I forgot. #-o :lol:

orange is the new brown, simply awesome.

Yup...I loved brown and I love orange...just something about the way it all comes together...so professional.
