I know there may be a desire to make it more grey but I like it the way it is now, crisp and catching[1], rather than depressing[2]. I'm using it now and you can easily distinguish the background from the windows even on the busy areas. I made a different way of creating the specs which have uneven edges to make them realistic[3]. These take the image as a pattern and form circles with the pattern as a stroke and add blur. Makes them look like small lenses. Under those there are also the ones which are whole circles made from the pattern. (unfortunately inkscape has made individual copies of all patterns so the file is huge) [1] http://duffy.fedorapeople.org/art/f12/oct%2020/rain11.png [2] http://duffy.fedorapeople.org/art/f12/oct%2020/rain.png [3] http://www.cs.manchester.ac.uk/~brejc8/temp/specs.svg _______________________________________________ design-team mailing list design-team@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/design-team
