The current Mint-Z Gnome Shell theme (Based on Zukitwo-Shell) doesn't fit good to the Mintified experience. It is slated, lacks the contrast at some places due to white text in slate background. Also it has the following issues,

1. The icons in the grid are too small that a part of the application is invisible. It will be hard to distinguish between similar applications. (e.g - LibreOffice)
2. The notifications tray doesn't look good with a border above it with the presence of a bottom panel.
3. The bottom panel (mgse-bottompanel) is not themed and looks out of place
4. Doesn't feel smooth and minty, upto the Mint quality

I have made a theme specifically for Mint that I want to contribute to Lisa. Here is the link to the thread in Linux Mint forums - http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=25&p=491517
