Here is a theme I've been working on for a few months with Ubuntu
specifically kept in mind during the development.  It is rather dark,
but remains extremely easy on the eyes while maintaining a certain
shine.  I believe this has the originality and usability that could
benefit the Ubuntu Desktop.  

This theme was developed with the help and input from many members of
the artwork community. The color base is largely inspired by the GDM
that appeared in Jaunty.  After seeing those colors together, I realized
an accompanying theme would be aesthetically pleasing and not done by
many others.

I am hosting the project on Launchpad and have yet to create a Wiki on
Ubuntu-Artwork.  Any bugs, feedback, thoughts, input, would be greatly
appreciated. It's at 0.2 release, but actually much more stable than the
version would imply.

Along with the beauty and functionality of GNOME-Do and community effort
of the Breathe Icon Set, this could make for an exciting alternate
desktop.

Here is the theme download via Launchpad for testing.
