Homosapien

This is my imagination of the new metacity theme in Ubuntu 10.04

Concept

http://img2.pict.com/d4/d7/42/2702379/0/800/homosapienmetacity.png (please someone tell me how to make the image appear !!)

I used some colors from the current Humanity icons and Karmic's Gtk theme. Unfortunately, I can't make metacity themes YET, I'll try my best to learn and make the theme real Smile :)

  • Love it. By far one of the best proposals in a long time. It’s unique, legible, sleek, modern, stylish without being distracting, and it nicely adopts the classic “Ubuntu Brown.” I personally think it’d make a great default for Lucid. My only four initial suggestions are: (1) The top edge highlight is a little too severe, especially in the top-left corner. (2) The window border could stand to be a couple pixels thicker (for easier resizing). (3) The text contrast for the window title should be greater (i.e., "whiter") for legibility purposes. (4) The plus sign on the maximize button should become something other than a plus sign for maximized windows -- I'm not sure if this is currently the case, but otherwise it can become confusing (as it is in Shiki). Great work. (Sidenote: Somebody has made this into a downloadable Metacity theme at gnome-look.org) -- topdownjimmy 2010-02-01 14:47:40

  • I reworked it and posted it to Ubuntu-Art.org. Please test it out. Human Lucid-- dashua 2024-03-28 19:27:45

  • It looks good so far, I like the blend for the unfocused windows, but needs more refining at the lower left and right corners. About the buttons I'm going to make a complete set to help you guys make it great, best of luck Smile :)
