and no one is asking those who are already working one these features and enhancements … they have to use designers and people with artistic view to do the job …

Or will you customize it to suit your tastes better? It seems like you are already doing that, so rather than additional features and other UI enhancements, you are asking them to spend time on changes to the appearance that you probably won't completely agree with anyways.

Yes I love using it because I think its a wonderful operating system, but the average Joe isn't going to be interested. Its like buying a car, sure I want a car that runs good, but I'm not going to buy the ugliest car(not that you have to pay for Ubuntu). Furthermore there have been some beautiful examples drawn up and submitted to ubuntu. Any of them would be 10 -1 better than what we have. Hopefully they're just teasing and have something big in store for the final release! At some point the developers have to sit back and think, no one is going to use something that looks like crap.
