What if the bot pattern was used for the background instead of the lightening, and a solid color smooth gradient (to preserve the sculpted appearance) was used for the menu graphic instead of the robot pattern? A reversed gradient could be used for the current selection graphic, thus giving the selected choice the appearance of a depressed button.
Maybe it would be better not to have any background, but preserve the bot pattern where it is.
Like I said before, why do we even need a new theme? I like Dusky 2 as it is, otherwise I also liked the first theme tried (with the metal background) better than the themes we're trying now.
I believe he tiled it to give an impression of what it would look like on the website.That's what it sounded like to me anyway.

It needs to be cropped to only one repetition. The browser does the tiling. And it will be viewed at full size, did you mean to reduce the size?
