Comment on Ubuntu Unity 5.0 Mock-up by DigitallyDestined
I like it, but I don't like the top left hand curve thingie. It doesn't fit with Unity because the way Unity handles maximized windows. Maximized windows take all the screen space and the panel itself becomes a part of the window. That curve makes it look as if maximized windows would maximize under the panel and have a curve on the left side making it look weird. Remember that the Launcher hides automatically, that curve makes it look as if the Launcher can't move because it's attached to the panel.
No hidden menus? That's a plus! I looks very nice, I don't mind hidden menus at all, but having them all the time up there looks cool.
I love how you themed the panel and Launcher. It makes it look more unified, something that's missing from the current Unity. The panel needs a major overhaul, your design makes perfect sense.
The icons are something that will change in the future, hopefully 12.04 will bring a new icon theme (Mark promised it a long time ago).
I really like the window theme you used on that welcome screen. I don't like how window borders look on the current version. I like that flat, unified look you're using. The shadows look amazing as well, darker than the current shadows (which are a step backwards from the 11.04 shadows) but still subtle.
You should create that GTK+ theme! I would gladly install it on my machine!
I would really like to see an option in the future. I would like transparent toolb ars and window decorations if the user chooses a transparent panel on CCSM. Making the panel transparent without the rest of the window being transparent makes no sense. Also the indicator menus should be transparent or have the same look as the Launcher quicklists.
