Hi all,my suggestion is to use dark themes by default in present and future versions. I know there are dark versions already but not as default, ie. last time I checked Ubuntu GNOME with GNOME 3.10 has a bright theme (Files and all settings windows show bright) as main with a dark upper panel.
The main reason for this are better readability and easiness on the eyes, with which I'm sure most of you are familiar with, and to that related reduction of eye strain bright themes cause, thus we could this way also encourage users to use darker themes and show them the benefits.
We all spend extended periods of time in front of our PCs and our eyes get tired after a time, especially when staring at a desktop with a bright theme that acts literally as a light bulb.
This article <http://xpt.sourceforge.net/techdocs/misc/ce01-DarkBackgroundIsGoodForYou/> lists most points of what I'm suggesting and consider well worth a thought, and that could also influence the direction future graphics development of Ubuntu GNOME could take.
I e.g. am using Dorian-theme-3.12 on my desktop (currently Xfce, new machine will be GNOME) and it works very well, focus is a lot better because even letters in white and better seen on dark backgrounds. Also the energy saving aspect is a great highlight.
