Anyone who's got Leopard want to let us see what the new desktops look like? ( only if it's legal of course)

Sorry can't break Apple Developer agreements, so we won't be seeing any desktops.

I thought Leopard looked pretty much the same as Tiger?

So I've seen, and it's a fact that sucks. Thank god for theming, though, because the darker plastic look of Leopard is turning me OFF of it....

I am one who likes the brighter nature of OS X, the whites and light shades of grey. Now that's it's starting to get dark, I'm starting to get worried.

I wish they would overhaul and unify the whole look of the damn thing....oh well.

If you are asking for the desktop background for Leopard (ie the cool blue swirly one that changes with each OS release), then, from what I understand, you are out of luck at present, because the Leopard beta shipped with the same background as Tiger, hence it has not yet been updated, and it will most probably be released with the retail release of the OS.

It's not wholly "dark" persay, but it's darker than the plastic "white/grey" windows of Tiger.
