Re: [Gimp-gui] GIMP Theme UI now and future.

[Jehan <jehan girinstud io>]

Hey everyone!

The new themes are now sharing most of their code, but the color 
schemes, which makes them very maintainable and it makes me confident to 
have many variants of the colors if neded. I would not even mind having 
all 5 of them, especially since it looks like every variant may have 
someone's preference? All tastes are in nature, that's the saying, 
right?

For reminder, here are side by side screenshots of all 5 variants 
currently being WIP by Ben (alias Draekko):

I'm thinking, maybe the lightest theme should be even lighter?

Personally I feel like I would likely use "Sea of Grey" or the "Dark" 
theme.
Should we push all 5 of them? Should we discard some?

Also there are still a lot of bugs here and there. It would be awesome 
if people could test them and report bugs.
