Why does it still default....
to turd brown?


It's getting there but Vista is light years ahead of these dialog boxes etc.


i recall the days when Linux folks labeled XP's UI as Fischer Price. Remember those days?

Well, Ubuntu has finally made it Up to the "FP" look (without MS's much better color and layout skills). The fat icons and terminal looking fonts still have a long way to go to looking modern.

Nothing against the OS, I just say ditch the default turd brown and learn a bit about pleasing color combinations and modern looking OS GUI from Windows and someday it could be a mainstream OS. wink
