it`s probably best if i did used that palette but i just want to design
freely without any limitations. so for now i don`t use the palette. it`s
fine if it just fits the palette theme but other than that i will just make
it how i like it.

For the color jump and the normal gradient.. i`ve tried a normal gradient
but that somehow doesn`t look so good.. the taskbar you see in previous
mockup is likely to be the final one. i might change the tasks itself a bit
but not much.

The window itself is still troubling me but looking better with every
mockup.

looking good but not wise for fedora to use as a default theme.. that will
most likely result in a few lawsuits from well know company (starting with a
M ending with a t) ;)
