Hey all,

we've been discussing the idea of changing the default

theme in F12. Nodoka has been the default for a while, and it

We don't want to do a radical visual change, though. The idea is

Well, that would still be a visual change. Given that he's

restarting

nodoka from scratch, that would leave the options as being either:

• go to clearlooks
• stay with the old nodoka version

?

I see that I should have phrased this better...

What I meant to covey is: we _do_ want some visual change, e.g. get rid of some small annoyances in the current default theme, such as the dotted lines in treeviews.

But as far as change goes, it is probably fine to keep it subtle (like going to Clearlooks) and not radical, like Lennart proposes (pick a dark default theme).

Also, would we be changing the icon set?

I don't think think we have readily available options here. gnome-colors is popular and has a nice blue variant, but it is not packaged for Fedora atm. http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/GNOME-colors?content=82562
