Mael,
I am still having trouble with the transitions patch.  It doesn't merge cleanly on the MainGTK.py.

On a different note, I have made a few subtle changes to the clip theme
images, including the size of the "visible" and "mute" buttons, and the
border color around the clip rectangle.  I am trying to balance it, so
the speaker button was not as "loud"... so to speak, and it's easier to
see where one clip ends and the next one starts (i.e. darker border
color).

Overall, I really love the new theme.  Each release we can continue to
refine, add additional views and options, etc... I am going to mark this
bug completed as soon as I get the transitions patch merged.  Thanks!

Title:
  UI redesign

Status in OpenShot Video Editor:
  In Progress

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)
