Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx Proposed Themes: Kioo And UbuntuSun

Here are two theme that maybe will find spot in new Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx.

Themes names are Ubuntu Sun (perfect for april) and Kioo.

• Ubuntu Sun:

As some people like dark themes and some people like bright themes, why not combine them into one set of matching themes with different shades? This is an idea for a Metacity theme that is based on the idea of having the sun shine into your windows. Could there be a better leitmotiv for the window design of a lucid release? The theme could be combined with any GTK theme if they are modified to have flat menu and tool bars.

The user can choose between three different moods of the theme, representing different positions of the sun and thus different levels of brightness: Dawn, Day and Dusk.






Ubuntu Sun looks very nice, but theme is not available for download :(

• Kioo:

Kioo is the Swahili word for glass. The glassy look of this theme is why I chose this word as the name of the theme.

The Kioo theme is a balance between shades of grey, brown and orange resulting in a theme which is easy on the eyes in any lighting condition.



Unlike Ubuntu Sun theme Kioo theme can be downloaded, if You like Kioo theme You can download it here.

Kioo theme require Human icon theme, if you are running Ubuntu 9.10+ click customize and change icons to Chumanity-Dark.
