You are 100% right on this.. For example I love Ubuntu but I don't really like brown.. so whenever I install it on a machine I try to change the default settings.. now if you use the defaults it's at least all made by the same team... but if you try put something together it usually looks like crap and there is not much you can do about it (other than design it yourself<nobr> <wbr></nobr>:P)....
I think the solution wold be to work on art for desktops in separate projects... not for one distribution... but a project to design a desktop for kde or gnome from one end to the other... I mean it should include splash screens and icons and even font sizes... and everyone should be able to use that... regardless of distro..
for example I like the new artwork that was done for Suse 10.2, but I really hate Suse (the distro... a mater of taste<nobr> <wbr></nobr>;) It wold be great if I could just install that artwork on my ubuntu... even if it says suse on the desktop<nobr> <wbr></nobr>... or it could be called anything else...
