Wow, this is one classy theme! Thanks a lot for this - first theme I've seen that makes me want to switch from the built-on Digital Nature theme.

Few remaining bugs I've seen in the latest version from -devel (v. 0.95-1):

- Red-on-black font in text fields (see the address bar in the screenshot below for example) looks harsh and out of place in my opinion. What about a simple white font?

- The dark-blue-on-black font used to display the time and window title in the top title bar doesn't look very good on the device. It's a bit hard to read and doesn't fit well with the rest of the theme (see title bar in screenshot above).

What about a simple white font or a light-blue font that would match the color of the top-left task switcher button?


- It's hard to tell whether a button is disabled (greyed out) or enabled. See screenshot below for example.

The "Restore applications" button in the screenshot below appears to be the only enabled button since it's the brightest one. The other two buttons appear to be greyed out (disabled). Yet, it's actually the other way around. "Restore applications" is in fact the only disabled button on this screen and the other two buttons are enabled.

This is particularly problematic when there's only one button displayed on screen (e.g. in progress bars that have a "Stop" or "Cancel" button). I can never tell whether the button is enabled or greyed out as it's not obvious at all and I can never remember which color means what.

This might not be an easy one to fix. I'll let you play with the colors and see what would work better.

- In the Settings application, the font colors used to display the applets names made my head go really dizzy. I had to put down the phone and rest for a second or two before I could function again (I was in a dark room with full screen brightness which amplified the effect). I'm not usually sensitive at all to color tricks like this so this must be a very interesting combination you've found here.

This issue seems to be caused by the slight red shadow that can be seen in the screenshot. A plain white font would be better I think.

- This one has already been mentioned for a previous version I think but it's still there: there's a glitch in the way the icon in the desktop settings button is drawn. See button in screenshot below.

- The drop-shadow used to draw the text in system notification bars (see screenshot below) makes the text very hard to read and doesn't look good at all in my opinion. Would look a lot better without it.

Good luck
