The large shadow / dark gradient in the background is extremely odd; I haven't seen it anywhere else, and it's visually overpowering.

Looking at several of the designs in the Link, one thing that's bugging me is some internal inconsistency with content width; some displays are full-width, some are locked into a max width. I don't think this should be treated like a web-page (with fixed-width content); I'd like to see more traditional widgets used, which always make the most use of the space provided by the window.

On some pages there are frames sitting above the content, which look like they would be scrolled along with the content, some are, others aren't; should these be presented as a persistent bar on the bottom of the application?

Yes, that's the intent. Also notice the text of the install button intended to provide a simple asynchronous hint on installation progress:

I'd say we need some kind of notification saying there's something going on in the "Installed" section... changing the title/icon maybe?

It might be useful to have a meeting some day to discuss where to go from here.

What do you think?
