This is more a complaint with many new themes, but it would be nice if they didn't all depend on GIT/SVN/etc. versions of theme engines. Not everyone uses Ubuntu where the developers are happy to push out testing grade packages to their users. It's a little limiting to users like myself who use distros like Gentoo wear stability is paramount.
Otherwise, great work on this theme. One of the better ones I've seen on here in quite some time. |

A source package of this would be perfect and much appreciated.
As much as I like Ubuntu (while I'm not a user of it) what I can't stand is all of this Ubuntu only artwork. I understand its popularity but I feel that it takes away from other distros just because it makes a lot of new Linux people believe that they can only use this artwork in Ubuntu and that's a real shame. All Ubuntu is really is just a pretty, nicely packaged and polished distro but on the desktop and under the hood it functions just to same as every other distro that provides a kernel and a GNOME desktop environment. |

In no way am I criticizing the artwork of this theme. It's absolutely pleasing to use. My complaint lies in the fact that I feel this would be much better if it was packaged in more of a distro neutral way.
I'm a Gentoo user and I like this theme enough that I was going to create an .ebuild of it and track its progress keeping it up-to-date with the development. What I have a problem with is how it's packaged.
1. .gtp file suffixes for tar.gz files. Seriously?
2. Is there anything that this themes configurator does that's specific only to Ubuntu and its derivatives? If no, and this is just a regular script, there's no need to package it as a .deb
Those are my only real beefs with this. Otherwise it has some real potential to make any distro have beautiful usability, not just Ubuntu.
