'A' or 'a few' superb Cinnamon themes (modern) made with maximum Muffin options used....

[gaetan-1960]

To bring 'more life' again in the theming community, would it be an idea, to create one or 2 (light and dark?) Cinnamon themes by a Muffin specialist, showing off the (maximum) capabilities within Muffin that can be used to create slick themes for Cinnamon? I have the impression the Cinnamon Theming dept has gone 'stale' a bit, with very few to none new slick themes being created. if a specialist could show with a few standard thems, what Muffin could realize as themes, this could show developers how new slick themes could be created...? Meaning, I am NOT sure ALL OPTIONS within Muffing are bein used so far ..... Maybe I'm wrong?
Thanks

What are the options in muffin that is being unused? I am asking because I genuenly don't know. Blur and bumpmap are not usable in themes. But I don't know when it comes to other possible new options

I don't know, I am NOT a developer, maybe ...(?) not all 'options' in theming / muffin are used? I could imagine this; I am not 'stating' this .... Just to see if some muffin specialist (eventually?) could see if there are more options in theming that can be used compared to what is mostly used up till this day...?! ... It is well possible that ALL options are used already, could be ... ONce again; I'm not a developer NOR a (muffing) specialist; Clem could say something about this I think. If all options are used in theming already, my question / suggestion here is 'obsolete'! :-)

Oh ok! I would love a theme that would showcase some unused aspects of cinnamon. But I believe such a theme already exists. It is what Mint-Y is. Not everyone likes how it looks but it is probably the best cookbook for theme developers ever. I believe everything you can theme is basicaly laid out over there. (tho the is no documentation. I had to look at the raw code, tweak it and understand it myself). It might not look "modern" for some ppl but it is original.
