New GNOME Shell Mockups Look Like Unity, Nautilus Elementary


Since GNOME 3.0 has been delayed until March, 2011, it seems there's enough time to rethink the way GNOME Shell looks, especially since a lot of people don't like it (especially from the usability point of view).

Some new GNOME Shell mockups were uploaded to GIT recently, showing a lot of similarities with Ubuntu / UNE:


Gedit / Nautilus:

As you can see, Nautilus looks a lot like Nautilus Elementary. We already talked about this, but this is the first mockup of the new default Nautilus which Elementary bits and pieces.




Then there's a new GNOME Shell look which looks incredibly close to Ubuntu's Unity:

Even the Search seems to be inspired by Unity's Dash:

I don't know about you, but for me a GNOME Shell like in these mockups is definitely more usable than how Shell is right now. If we can get a usable working GNOME 3.0, it doesn't really matter who inspired who!


What do you think?


In case you don't know how Nautilus Elementary / Unity look like, I suggest you see these:
