How do you feel about this: https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-art-list/2006-August/msg00027.htmlits actually not bad...I'd MUCH prefer that as the default wallpaper over the light blueish look of the one shipped.
How about these two mockups: http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/36700219/ http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/36700985/If you like the way these are looking I can work on them a bit more and at least make them available as GDM themes for Fedora if not the default.
I have been thinking about making a whole themed set of the DNA stuff though. I don't know that anybody else is working on or thinking about the FC6 default theme.

If you can give some rationale here and even better, give some suggestions/examples of what you'd like to see (besides the RHEL/Fedora 4 and lower examples), that would be very helpful.I guess I'd like to see Fedora shy away from the bubbles (I like the 'F' logo though w/out the bubbles) and light blues scattered throughout the distro (and grub themes) back to the darker blues that Fedora used to use. I really like the Gilouche theme (shown here:http://shots.osdir.com/slideshows/slideshow.php?release=637&slide=26&title=suse+linux+10.1+screenshots)
That is pretty nice. We could probably develop some artwork in that vein using Fyre.

without showing stuff from RHEL 4 because frankly, the artwork was fantastic as shown here (except for the greys of the old bluecurve as stated before):http://shots.osdir.com/slideshows/slideshow.php?release=302&slide=34&title=red+hat+enterprise+linux+4+screenshots
See, to me, this looked great a couple of years ago or so, but it also looks very dated at this point. Bluecurve is a very old theme. We need to move on so we aren't stuck in the past.
