Re: Nice icon theme, but...

I agree on that.

After also plasma and appeal promised a "whole new desktop experience" I'ld expect something more exciting then just "new pretty pictures". It would be nice to see some of the mentioned effects like the animation and dynamic lightning effects in work, because these are to me the really new features.

For that reason I don't like the static shadow under the "actions" icon, because when lightning is used as a visual aid to tell the user what is going on, the shadows should of course follow that scheme. One could for example give the user the impression of having an icon lifted above the desktop for a drag'n'drop action and a folder opening to signal that it's selected as a possible drop target.

Well, maybe I'm a bit to impatient, but the oxygen, appeal and plasma announcments set my expectations pretty high!
