If you're talking about superficial visual stuff then no, absolutely not. I would actually prefer it if people spent less time talking about the latest Ubuntu desktop wallpaper or whatever. However I do really appreciate the amount of effort that's gone into improving the usability of Blender and Gimp in recent years, and have given both projects money. I hope they use my money to focus on functionality, reliability, usability etc - I don't care what they look like.
