Love it or hate it... Ubuntu's choice of color scheme was daring. I'm no graphic artist, but twenty-eight years of sitting in front of computer monitors has taught me that brown is probably the most variable color there is when it comes to different monitors, display cards, and lighting conditions. It can look very good. But then change the lighting a bit, and you've got baby feces as your background image. And even when it looks good, brown still has that unfortunate association with solid waste.
I like the Ubuntu theme alright. But I would not be averse to them switching to, say, green. Green is a nice, warm positive sort of "feel good" color. It suggests "nature". And it is easier to get right on a variety of displays.
As an aside, I note that cmost managed, as usual, to get his usual anti-Ubuntu comment in, under this thread about a completely different distro.
