>I definitely think the panel should match the launcher's chameleonic design. Window borders, however, should continue using the Ambiance theme to create a distinction between the desktop shell (Panel, Dash, Launcher, Alt-tab switcher) and content/applications.
-Dave As everything evolves and matches better, there will always be a distinction between ui and the apps no matter what theme you use as you can see on some of the pics.

Unity is constantly evolving in the looks department. Components start to match and integrate better with each other in every new cycle: - launcher and its elements now matches the chameleonic dash. - notify-osd now matches too. example: http://people.canonical.com/~mmueller/notify-osd-avgerage-bg-color-1.jpg Now, are there any plans to explore the remaining elements like matching panel, window borders and maybe some extra theming in the next cycles (after the lts) ? I think unity could become more beautiful, than any current desktop. I've found some examples (some very similar or inspired by unity) of panels/borders in this gallery and i must say they would look great: http://thewildsider.deviantart.com/gallery/ some of my favorites are: http://thewildsider.deviantart.com/art/Sunny-AM-160788081 (nice matching panel, though this was unity :o) http://thewildsider.deviantart.com/art/Falling-Indeed-175711205 (nice panel and vertical menu) http://thewildsider.deviantart.com/art/Lazy-Day-162669024 (very nice overall and borders) http://thewildsider.deviantart.com/art/Playing-With-Time-166536953 (oh) http://thewildsider.deviantart.com/art/W-equal-DT-162260213 (borders look good) that's one of my hopes for upcoming cycles :) -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~unity-design Post to : unity-design@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~unity-design More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
