Collaboration At Its Best

[N8F8]

Themes.Org has to be one of the best examples to hand out to Linux newbies of the platform's advantages at its best. So many people with varying skill levels contributing their time and efforts to let people pick from hundreds of desktop configurations and appearances.
Just think about it.

Each Windowing environment has programmers writing open spec API's to allow people to customize the desktop.

Then the people who write the software to create and install the Themes. Not to mention graphics editing software and sound editing software.

Gui, Graphics and sound icon designers working on theme components.

Individuals and teams putting the peieces together to create hundreds of themes with a consistant look and feel.

All the user has to do if he/she wants to completely change the look of their desktop or make the computer an extension of their own personality is go to Themes.Org and click the download button.

Awesome. Nothing comparable comes to mind.
