Comment 12 for bug 563218

I've upgraded my family computers to lucid, but kept my main computer on karmic due partly to how excellent the dust theme was looking "way back then" (laziness is another factor, but I figured I'd mention it). I vastly prefer the older look, and I wish I had been keeping up with development to be vocal about the changes made in the lucid build (I shouldn't have relied on the karmic shipped version, I guess). I like everything the others have mentioned about the older look, and am still not really sure why the sides had to be visually enlarged to gain a better size for gripping... is there a way to code a few transparent pixels on either side, or possibly just move the resizable area inward on the window, rather than making the borders so glaringly obvious?

I'm very glad to hear (from the report I filed) that the issues I was having with dust are now fixed, but the new visual changes feel like a step backward... it looks much more generic now. I'm glad to see this changed to "in progress", and I'll keep an eye out here for any new builds that need feedback. Is this the best place to do that? I'd been watching the ubuntu art page for a while, but giving feedback there always seemed odd to me.

Keep up the excellent work either way, you've made a wonderful theme. Thank you.
