Pros:
There's a whole bunch of stuff in this package. Not to encourage non-theme related material in a theme but this package contains a cool skin for WinAmp, a System Meter utility, lots of extra theme icons and alternate bitmap wallpaper sizes, all enclosed in separate zip archives. The basic theme itself is simply outstanding and comes in a self-extracting zip for very easy installation. The author actually converted this Gnome theme from a windows shell replacement program called Litestep so that all us standard shell users can enjoy it as well. It's a little difficult to explain here but you can read more about this Gnome theme conversion and the Litestep program in the author's readme.txt file.

Cons:
Some users may find the extra non-theme related parts a waste of their download time if they do not use those program associations. It may be better to reference the extra parts in the readme.txt file and provide URL download links to make these downloads optional instead of just zipping everything up into one package.

Overall:
The Theme Doctor had something to do with this theme update, which is not something I normally do. However, I think you'll agree that it was worth it.
