Comment 5 for bug 158392

Binary package hint: gnome-themes

I concur that Ubuntu should have a dark theme and background by
default. I find that bright / light colors strain my eyes after
several hours of working on the computer.

Although kind of ugly I've been using Aero with a few modifications to
darken up the screen and some custom backgrounds I rendered myself to
tone down the display.

I've also spoken to a professional optometrist about this here in the
US and he agrees that most computer screens need far less white and
far more dark colors to easy eye strain. He recommends blues and grey
tones for easy viewing.

We could patch up Aero a little (to make it look a little better) and
I could contribute a couple of desktops with Ubuntu themes if anyone
thinks that they would be needed / desired.
