Thanks.

One thing Gentoo taught me was the guts of the Linux operating system. It allows for a really deep knowledge of the behind the scenes workings. But after a while, who really cares. Now I am very happy to have something that simply just works well.

Though I have always been a tinkerer, so I think all that stuff is my nature anyway. I find myself peering into the seedy underbelly of Mac OS X. Give me some time and I am sure I will be hacking the hell out of this thing too.

OMG, I love it. It made my day, lol... *continues drooling over the beautiful pixel perfect icons* <3333

It's sooo perfect and it finally makes Tango usable for me. I could never stand Tango before, it was way too incomplete and unpolished and it bugged me to death. Although this set may not be quite as insanely complete as gperfection, it's still infinitely better than any other Gnome icon set out there, and I can finally take a break from the graphite suite for awhile.

Thanks so much for this and for all your work. Your themes are nearly the only ones I can stand using anymore, especially the icon sets. I'm way too much of a perfectionist and you're the only one who makes things look complete and polished enough for me :P

I'll miss your work a lot, but I'm glad that you've found a system that works better for you. I wish you all the best. :D

Thanks a lot for those comments. Yes, I too am a perfectionist (heh, does it show in my work?) and is the reason I theme at all. I, like you, can't stand "good enough" or anything that is anything but perfect.

This world would be so much better if people took that extra little bit of time to polish the rough spots. Again thank you for the really nice words :) It is users like yourself I cater my work to!
