Perhaps a darker button colour would have be suitable, but not that
colour. That is much too dark, the pink prelight also leaves a lot to be
desired. As well as the green tinge on depressed widgets.
All in all it makes it look rather ugly compared to the old one, which
is at least bearable.

It surprised me, because it looked like a bug. I thought there was
something wrong with my colourspaces, or RGB settings. I didn't expect
to see any pink.
