RE: Clearlooks

I wouldn't call it pretty if you are comparing it to plastik or Keramik or whatever, but for Gnome, I think it looks great.

I would call it pretty when compared to Keramik and Plastik. Those particular themes look childish to me. Clearlooks is understated and professional. Just the right touch of round and square. Complete, and well done. It's my favorite theme out of any DE on any OS.

Then again, that's just me. I also hate the Mac OSX theme, both the aqua and the brushed metal look (that usually drops a few jaws when I say that). I really dig something simplistic and understated. Basically, get out of my way and let me work, but still look damn good doing it ;)
