It is interesting to look at the differences in the styles of different 
distributions. This is often best represented in looking at the art 
proposals for upcoming versions of various distributions. For example, a 
typical theme proposal for Fedora looks something like this:

     “I was laying in my hammock one night gazing up at the infinite 
stars when suddenly an idea occurred to me. Gazing out at the vastness 
of the stars, it seemed to be that those stars perfectly represented 
Fedora, since Fedora 9 was called “Sulfur” and there has got to be some 
sulfur out there somewhere.”

A typical Ubuntu art submission, on the other hand, looks more like this:

     “ubuntu rulz!!! see my awesum desktop: ubuntu should totally look 
like dis”
