Notes

• Not a high impact, all distros brand. gdm,session splash, wallpaper, widget theme, icons.
• Menu icon removal / button icon removal - unnecessary
• Make branding easier
• Provide baseline/foundation look for distros to start from
• Icons - base set of assets

• Panel <= quick win? Transparency/Subtle gradient. Problem with broken applets.

  • Mockups of panel with a subtle gradient (open these two in tabs and jump back/forth to compare):
