@clay : The play/pause button is now a bug. It should chnage his icon
from play to pause when you click on it, it will be fixed soon, i hope.

@Jonathan :

Yeah i totaly agree, the mockup's ruller theme is awesome :D
Making openshot more flexible and configurable is a good idea. Providing some presets for the layout, for example one for new users and one for power user would be great (i would really like to have some way to make openshot like this mockup, using preferences would be great too). 

But maybe we can take some other idea from this mokup like the no-border
thing.

Bug description:
Hi,

I think we should made a ui redesign for the next openshot major version (aka 1.3), so i asked Jan Hofmann, a german ui designer known for his evolution and rhythmbox elementary mockup to make us a mockup.

So here it is : http://dl.dropbox.com/u/155356/openshot.jpg

I found it very simple and beautiful, with a good use of the available space. Feel free to commant about it. (keep in mind that's just a first try, all suggestion are welcome)

We should also decide if this ui redesign, when approved, will be based on the upcoming gtk3 release (with openshot using pygobject, GtkApplication, gtk3, ...) or on the old legacy gtk2.

A new defaut theme has to be made (request by a lot of users), has to be more gnome friendly (so basically we should have at least 2 icons themes, one defaut higncolor theme and one for ubuntu, other distrib will follow)  and fit with freedesktop recommendation (install icons system wide, ...).

This bug can be used to discuss all these suggestions.

Thanks. (and sorry for my english)
