So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do.
Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game.
The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...

seconded on the wallpaper links. I love that first one.
Also, are there any for KDE?

Have a look in artwork/incoming, see if there's anything in there. I linked Kin's because they were nice enough to list it :)

Do you know any theme with "normal" window border with "normal" square buttons and "normal" light (not bright) colored GTK+ widgets?
In my opinion, all these themes are aesthetically pleasing, but we enjoy the theme only for few minutes and rest of the time we concentrate on the data, and our eyes get tired easily on staring at high contrast ( dark colors mixed with bright orange shades ) schemes.

I'm kinda bothered that most of those are still either brown and / or orange. I use a hell of alot of ubuntu, and I like gray and green myself. I like the color green (A7FF24) I used that to highlight a tannish gray color, and black.

The first thing I noticed was 'Weird Fishes/Arpeggi'. Great song. Love Radiohead.
Second, Turrican looks sweet.

Great stuff!!
My 2 Cents, Please, please include other colors like Navy Blue, soothing Emerald Green, happy Sunshine Yellow and Scarlet Red themes. I have played around with the customization, however it took me many months to master this. Therefore, for new users this could be a huge benefit as some are not 'computer savvy'.
I hope these colors are included in Ubuntu Karmic 9.10 with the familiar Brown & Orange as a refreshing change. Also, please have a theme with some transparency.
On installing "Turrican Blue" I got the message that "This theme will not look as intended because the required GTK+ theme Turrican Blue is not installed"
How do I install it?
Thanks again.
