[ubuntu-art] Ubuntu 13.04 Scrollbar

Recently checked out the new mouse-on overlay scrollbar on Ubuntu 13.04. While idea is nice, I think it needs some polish? The design and colour of the scrollbar do not quite match the overall Ubuntu theme, not even the white 'original' scrollbar next to it. It looks rather bland and bulky. Any inf

[ubuntu-art] New titlebar (Metacity theme) for Hardy

Now that it's certain we will continue to have the Human GTK theme in Hardy (which I think is a good idea, I still like - and use - it anyway) we should talk about changing the Metacity theme.

part of the reason I did this myself is because I've come from Windows Vista where the menu bar (well, its gone actually, but the strip where it used to be!) can be clicked to drag a window just as readily as the title bar can be. Relatively minor I suppose, but just thought I'd po
