The upcoming release of Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid Ibex) is highly anticipated not only for the system enhancements it will likely get, but also for its new default theme. The visual refresh is a long time coming, so I expect the Ubuntu artwork team is cooking something good for all of us.

The October release date of Ubuntu 8.10 is fast approaching, yet until now, we don’t know exactly what the finished product will look like. I don’t want to make any guesses, instead, I decided to collect 10 beautiful existing GTK 2.x themes that I think can be further improved or altered and be used as the default desktop theme for Intrepid Ibex. Enjoy!

1. Glow Ibex

2. New Wave
