I thought myself about cross-posting in the first place, sorry for not 
doing it :p

Right, usually just dropping a PNG or SVG file.
See a simple example: http://fedora.nicubunu.ro/games/same_fedora.svg
(it have to be modified for final use, a little animation is needed). 
Just drop in the same-gnome themes directory. Or just look at the

I do not think is useful to send branded themes to upstream, almost sure 
they will not want to promote any specific distro.

I think i'm going now to do an animated version of the theme, just for 
my amusement :p
