At the end of the day, opendesktop.org is a website. Go and get which ever theme you want. I'd much rather the devs keep the ISO small rather than packing in a bunch of unnecessary stuff like optional themes.

    Soopyyy i have to agree with you on this one again it was just a suggestion trying to give some feedback. I really love Solus and since i can't contribute any code to the project i was just trying to help with other idea's / suggestions.

    I'm using Qogir-dark with Oranchelo-Beka, and I think it's beautiful; buuut it comes down to personal preference.

    Maybe theme selection could be included in the installer? In a liveCD/USB environment, it might even be worth letting the user switch between themes in the installer and have their look and feel shown on that installer window.
    It would both help to highlight the customisability of Solus, and it'd help to avoid complaints like this.

    I was thinking "what is all this nonsense?" Arc-darker is the solus default for all my installs. Then I looked for arc in raven and it was no longer installed.
    wth? I didn't uninstall it....
    It takes me a long time to notice things....
    I like Plata a lot. Yes, it's a 'Spinal Tap' dialogue about "black"..........
    but I found arc again in SC and re-installed.
    But enough of all this.
    Whatever core team member shoe-horned all those Surf packages into icons/themes deserves a medal. Surf rocks.
    PS--Qoqir is beautiful too

    Soopyyy
    Yes, iso should be small, but there are still flaws with the design. Such as not a complete set of icons and a gray cursor on the plasma. The fact that the theme of Fee Noir is chosen as the default is, of course, beautiful and harmonious. But, let's say, i use as a main player audacious, not a rhythmbox.

    youswer That clock in desktop you see on Ubuntu Budgie is an applet, not a conky.

      algent
      Sorry, did not know ..
      From Ubuntu long gone.
      First on Arch, now Solus.

      I love the default theme and the icons.One of the reasons for me to choose this distro was the default theme.

      Tourette

      Ah, I'm definitely a fan of Qogir. Used it for a while with Solus (but then switched back to Adapta because of some rendering issues with the new Budgie version).

      I am with a Planta- Lumina-compact and it fits me well

      Tried Plata, but reverted back to Adapta. Sorry to say that, but Plata seems as step down in quality.

      Theme is suuuper easy to change and default themes only generally change on a new release. Bring it up again when a release is nearing to discuss then.

      5 days later

      Tjay I like these theme and I installed it already. I think it should be to get in the software center.
