“If you are an Ubuntu 10.04 ‘Lucid Lynx’ user, you must
have already noticed the annoying white border around thumbnails of
pictures and videos. I mean, for some thats fine, but I always
liked more of a transparent 3D kind of a look for the thumbnail
border(Even the blog template I am currently using had this white
border around pictures which made them look totally out of place).

“Nautilus Thumbnails Just Got Gorgeous

“In my opinion the current white border around thumbnails in
nautilus looks ugly and old. It should be replaced with something
more ‘lively’.”
