I'm currently testing Ubuntu 11.10 and I LOVE it. The only thing that really bugs me is how Banshee doesn't have a dark toolbar, yet Rhythmbox does. Imo it really integrates it much better..
Rhythmbox:
Banshee:
I know the stable release is quite a ways away, but I'm just curious as to why this is the case.
Banshee's toolbar looks different because its toolbar color is hard-coded. This was initially coded in the days when it wasn't popular for gtk themes to set custom colors for the toolbar. It was done to help the resize grip widgets (and possible other custom icons and widgets) blend in better with the toolbar.
Unfortunately, the custom toolbar makes Banshee stick out like a sore thumb with themes that do paint the toolbar. There's an open bug report (mine, actually ;) ) for the issue.
Part of the problem can probably be found near line 214 of BaseClientWindow.cs. I tried my limited C# abilities and couldn't come up with a fix. If you can, I'm sure the Banshee devs would welcome a patch. :)
