Some minor updates..

I did some minor updates to the Plankton theme yesterday.

  • The topright corner’s black blob is gone from the “home” view - yes, it was a bug, not some weird artistic brain fart of mine. ;-)
  • The buttons are much lighter in appearance - I want to do a very clean, simple theme that works.
  • The theme is now dithered to 32000 colors, so it has less banding on the blue gradient in the task navigator and statusbar panels.
  • The virtual thumb keyboard is cleaner (in progress, I know it has some pixel glitches) - the goal is to make it very easy to type with - hence the very prominent pressed-state of buttons and the clean appearance. Let me know if it helps - I think it does.
  • Some other crap perhaps that I forgot.

Grab it here. You need hildon-theme-cacher from here to install it. N800 only for now.

    Looking good - I like the new scroll-bars a lot, although I think I preferred the old buttons on the whole - still head and shoulders above any of the default themes of course :)

    Great! Please add it to the extras repository so that people can install it via apt-get!

    Yes a smaller font version would be very nice. I love nuvo because of that. Great work.
