Well, it looks like a very productive day. The above screenshot is awesome. Now I just hope that the Bunsen-team can gather around your suggestions, and make them the default in Bunsen. It doesn't get any better than the screenshot above.

Well, despite what I said elsewhere about preferring all-grey, the way those bits of blue match the blue flame is very very nice. Might be changing my mind.

+1 spacex - that last screenshot is brilliant. This could be the face of BL?

@TheSage - have you seen this stuff?

Re: Dark LightDM Theme (ha! dark light), MOAR

^   No kidding! Anyway, that explains alot. Same problems that Unity had with dark themes..grrr. I ended up putting a dark theme on Iceweasel as well, namely Blackfox V2-Blue. It fixed some of the issues but some still remain. At any rate, it is something I can live with, mostly, because I just happen to like dark themes. It's a mystery to me how a GTK theme element could affect an element inside of a web page unless the web developer is not defining their css correctly. Two that immediately come to mind are: 1. Debian of all places and 2. Postimg.org. I am thinking when I get the chance to tweak my theme, I will add some application specific overrides to iceweasel/firefox.

Re: Dark LightDM Theme (ha! dark light), MOAR

What do you think about that bald ball headed user icon? Would it be a crime to replace it with a Bunsen flame?

(edit: The kugelkopf is known as avatar-default.png in icon sets.)

The OP screenshot is not showing Open Sans in the Panel, specified fonts have to be in /usr/share/fonts.

I've updated the notification themes so the 'title' uses a bold font and the progress bar (volume/brightness) looks better.

Re: Dark LightDM Theme (ha! dark light), MOAR

Hmmm, I like the Bunsen2-Blue-Dark so much that I'm probably going to adopt it, even if it causes readability issues in some apps. The same problems that I've had with previous dark themes, so it's possible to work around it one app at a time I really really like it. It's to good not to be used. So if you aren't going to use it, then I most certainly will

@ew, thanks. Assuming no drastic bugs get uncovered, it should be available in Hydrogen, just not set to default for the reasons I mentioned.

No, it is not, it must be changed inside the default icon set. I just put it on the table because it affects the appearance of login screen.

I am loving the Bunsen2-Blue-Dark theme.  Got it installed on my Jessie installation right now.
