For starters, rather than ranting up a stinkola, you might take
things into your own hands and create several background pictures in
400x240 format that looks attractive to you and rotate them into the
home page background. In 08OS, many of the home page apps have a
partially transparent mode that lets the background bleed thru. After
working with it for a while, you might grow fond of the customizable
evolution.
Also, just because the new home screen is different doesn't make it
ugly. Everything is in constant evolution. If you give things a few
weeks/months, some other themes may appear. You may or may not like
them when they arrive. Given your splatting your extreme negativity all
over this list, I'd not expect a lot of warm fuzzy support from
developers listening to any of your critiques of their work.
