Roj Theme

Author: Eshat

Etymology: Roj [rɔːʒ] is kurdish and means sun{,light} or day.

Initally created as a minimal green wallpaper, I switched to this blue version, since many users mentioned, that green might be reserved by too many other distributions.

Additionally the Wallpaper now has been recreated in Inkscape, so that it is available as SVG, hence resolution independent, graphic.

To give you an idea, on how the color works on the various Desktop Environments, here are some screenshots:

Being a member of the pkg-kde Team, I already have KDM and ksplash themes ready:

The wallpaper can be downloaded directly here You will also find the ksplash and KDM theme packages there.

Any feedback is appreciated.

Also feel free to contact me, if you want to help improving the Roj theme. Here is a list of things, that I haven't done yet:

Some of these points probably only make sense, if Roj is elected as wheezy's default Theme or if there is enough interest in an optional theme package.
