[ubuntu-art] Varied texturing

[tonic]

I haven't seen the dynamic theme idea implemented yet and it seems good.

tiger stripe example

There were other examples but I think that is the best.

Other ideas for dynamic widget textures are;
marbling
hatching

I find that hard to look at. I keep "seeing" a larger pattern clipped and 
under the entire form -- as if it's only showing through the buttons. Like an 
effect gone wrong, or a crashing window of some kind.

Perhaps if the stripes were varied, toned to wrap the buttons more tightly 
(increasing the 3d illusion of the button) and not so higgeldy piggeldy?

Just sayin :)

[ubuntu-art] GTK theme tutorial

[AA Boy]

Steph asked for a GTK theming tutorial, so I decided to tell everyone about
it so we can start getting some serious work done! Anyway, it is
located at here
on GNOME's site . It covers
Metacity, GTK, Icon themes, and GDM themes. So, enjoy, and happy theming. :)

That was a mockup from 2005 by seth nickell I'm sure the idea can be
improved on.

Yeah, the main concept is that not every button looks the same, there is
some random variance thrown in by creating parts of the widget
algorithmically. Its a great concept, but the mockups arn't that hot.
Something like random noise in the background fo instance.

[xl cheese]

This idea would probably work better as a button prelight rather than the 
normal button state.  
Neat concept.
