Re: Theme for 1.0

 

We already have approval from jimmac to include the theme in Gwibber. I
got an e-mail from him this morning with a technical question about
native theme colors. At his request, I've added support for exposing
STATE_SELECTED colors to the theme alongside the normal colors.

If his modifications to make it use native GTK+ colors can make it look
and feel native with a wide range of user color schemes, then I think it
would be a much better choice than the current default. I concur with
Dominic about the need for some kind of protocol indicator, so I would
also consider that a prerequisite for default use.

So far, I really like what he has done and I think it has the potential
to be a big improvement over my default theme.
