SethStorm666 at gnome-looks there is no one doing what you are doing with Plank, but in icons there a million creative geniuses but very few are doing this bare bones, look---the people (like me) who like clean, simple, functional, and tasteful are out there.
It wasn't until the green pond and icons that I figured out (I think!) what you were doing as an artist. No one else is designing like you. By that I mean you design around/for/aware of the background pic. In other words, even a 'full theme' set is not as important as the whole thing, the whole desktop, the whole vibe.
I mean I can find some fantastic backgrounds but I can't marry any theme/icon to them like you can. Look at the browns then the wheat colored foreground. It's sublime. The best free verse poetry, and even jazz, use that concept sometimes . Rock on.
