Charlie Henson says he likes Sample 2.

I don't know. I don't like the dark one (Sample 1) any other will do.

I like it, way better than mine lol

I actually like it the way it is!

The white lettering of the categories gives just enough contrast to be noticeable, and the consistent background of the categories on the left provides a good border.  It focuses my eyes on the content to the right.

I like it the way it is, but if I have to select from the 3 choices, for my reasons above, I would select choice 1.  The other two choices have the categories on the left and the content on the right blend in too much.  The result is a "where do I look first" feeling.

This is more an aesthetics thing and maybe it's wanted but when switching between the tabs on the side the whole top panel swooshes up and done again changing the title and tab description. Just the help button stays where it is.

Looks like it's pretty even between Samples 1 & 2. Interesting, since one is dark and one is light. This will be a tough call.

Hi Jerry,
This may show my lack of knowledge(naivety), on what you/dev's have to do to maintain these tools..??
Could you not have a "Choice" in "Lite Tweaks" for "Light" or "Dark" Control panel..??

Linux Lite 3.0 Humming on a ASRock N3070 Mobo ~ btrfs RAID 10 Install on 4 Disks Smile

Computers Early days:
ZX Spectrum(1982) , HP-150 MS-DOS(1983) , Amstrad CPC464(1984) ,  BBC Micro B+64(1985) , My First PC HP-Vectra(1987)
Theming requires a lot more code. This is something we can implement in the future. Right now, our priority is to get these useful tools out to people asap in a stable state.
Understood, for me 1 or 2 is fine, It's good to just have the tool.

Read how to make LL secure.
See what else Linux Lite can do.
I think X kill is cool Smile
The way it is now or Choice 1 are more in keeping with the theme of the Linux Lite Help Manual.
