Fedora Core 6 Theme Update

Hey Everybody,

So some of you may have seen the quite famous by now :) Gentle Gnome 
GTK/metacity mockups that Bert Bruggeman created [1].

How does everybody feel about the possibility of using a look like this 
as the default theme for FC 6? Arthurva Gore has put together a pixmap 
GTK theme that matches Bert's mockups pretty closely, and there are a 
lot of Clearlooks metacity themes that work well with the theme.

I took a screenshot [2] using Arthurva's GTK theme and the 
Clearlooks-BlackMod theme [3] on a relatively fresh install of FC5.

What do you all think? I think Arthurva's got it far enough along that 
we'd have some time to make minor tweaks if we wanted. The two things I 
noticed about it are the tabs are a little undefined (eg in Firefox) and 
the progress bar is a little weird.

Any suggestions welcome! :)
