ok, I figure considering the last of this kind of thread was made in the Summer of last year, I'm pretty sure most of us changed our desktop.

App Theme: PolyCarbonate One
Metacity Theme: I believe its Aluminum Alloy
Icon Theme: The Mist theme that comes with GNOME

Yeah, nothing special, but I like it, not to fancy nor not too simple. :guitar:

The Black & White icon theme (http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/black-white?content=70299) is simply stunning... I use it on my system, along with AWN Curves.

Did you post a screen shot Koji? :confused:

I know that XFCE is a minimal environment but I am not seeing anything at all.

and sad thing, they are all better than mines. :P Ok, maybe not sad.
Koji- Nice screenshot of XFCE. I've considered switching to XFCE a couple times.

Boy. I took four great screenshots of my Ubuntu. When I compared them to a screenshot of the initial default look of Ubuntu, I stared in wonder. So. Here's the best shot I have of my Ubuntu 7.10.

I'm a total Mac fanboy so you'll have to excuse me. Note: I just can't find a good leopard title bar that I actually like.

Why do I like it? With minimal customisation, I have a desktop that fits in much better with the default brown Human Theme.

FYI
Background = Manti Utah Temple (The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints)
- Top Panel: 34 pixels; Added Force Quit; Connect to Server (for FTP, etch); Weather Report (more functional than the Clock weather)
- Bottom Panel: Removed and replaced with Cairo-Dock (Curve) + Desktop Switcher + custom launchers as seen. Also has a the weather applet (I like to know my weather).
- Other stuff (not seen in the pic): Compiz Fusion + Emerald added. Also, (just a little quirky thing) the terminal has a nice translucent brown background with white font. Firefox has the Persona "A Web Browser Renaissance", which is a nice brown FF persona. Also the ugly gray window background was replaced with #F6EAD8 (goes much better with the Human theme brown).
