The theme will be changed before the general release. This was just for the beta to get more feedback going. The new design preview can be seen at

Ah, thanks Rahul. I do like that lion theme and based on that thread, it seems likely that it will be the default, which would be cool. Hopefully the GTK colors (especially the blue) will be toned down a bit to match the darker blue in that lion wallpaper.
Overall, though, it's definitely an improvement over the current.

Personally, I don't think ext4 is quite ready yet and I really don't think Fedora should use that as the default file system.
I really liked Fedora 10's theme but this theme seems pretty boring. I was hoping they were going to go with the 'nautical' reference to Leonidas (the HMS Leonidas). The wallpaper in those screenshots is very, very generic-looking. Granted, themes and wallpapers can be changed but Fedora has done such a great job in the past of creating a unique and cool look that this one, so far, is a letdown.
Still, Fedora is pretty darn awesome and I look forward to checking out the beta.
