NewWave

It is time to give a modern look to our favorite distribution! The new theme should make a more clever use of orange than previously (not over-use it), should be mainly color-neutral, and everyting except taskbars and windows borders should be white or light gray for readability reasons and to keep everything less heavy than many existing dark themes.

Concept

This artwork gets rid of the old-fashion looking GLASSY effect, which was cool 6 years ago. Time to move on!

This is inspired by the [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/Hardy/Alternate/gelatin Gelatin theme] and [http://lassekongo83.deviantart.com/art/Elements-VS-82691770 this XP theme].

The icons used in "places" are not mandatory; I just tried something new, but I'm sure we can find something - not glassy - better.

Sorry for the size: this is how it would look like on a 1024x768 screen.

Alternative background (a better one IMO):

Alternative icons and different glow on the button (the best one for me):
