Elive 2.7.2 comes only three weeks after the release of the previous Beta build, version 2.7.1, to implement out-of-the-box support for the popular Spotify digital music service, giving users direct access to millions of songs if they have a paid subscription, and a much-improved artwork, as both the system and icon themes were enhanced. While still work in progress, it looks like the Elive icon theme now has default filetypes associated to them, intuitive widget icons, such as the trash one or those used for dialogs like warnings and questions. Additionally, the icons used in the Applications Menu were also improved, and some darker GTK themes have been included as well.
