0.3 brings more shine

This release includes several new features. .pigment files can be previewed directly from Nautilus thanks to their thumbnails. You can double-click on them to open, install and activate them. Skins can also be incomplete, you don't have to link grub and usplash pigments to your skin any more.

Feel the power of .pigment files!

Pigment thumbnails
I've been working on exciting things for Epidermis 0.3: much better integration with .pigment files. Look at this screenshot: all the .pigment files have been thumbnailed, whatever their type (metacity, gtk, etc).

Good things coming soon...
(for the impatient there's always the bazaar branch)

Gearing up for the next release

Seems like half of all the currently open bugs are marked as "Fix Committed", so it's about time I release those fixes! So I'm releasing Epidermis 0.2.3~beta1 to testers!
If you find any problems, just submit a bug report.
If you successfully go through the test case, post a comment here so I see how ready 0.2.3 is to be released. I'm particularly interested in users who have already installed a previous version of Epidermis.
Thank you.
