Add chameleon colors to Cinnamon menu. The menu will change color depending on the average back ground color.

Here is an example with Unity dash in 12.04.

Minty-colors can change color depending on the background.

New chameleon Cinnamon theme (it's a lot like Minty and it's by the same author): http://cinnamon-spices.linuxmint.com/themes/view/78

Interesting to apply for Cinnamon. But you can change the font color to be clearly visible.

If you noticed the opened window color didn't change which is ugly, if the colors of the theme would change then maybe this would be much more beautiful (or a disaster)
A cinnamon extension anyone?

I would like to see this as an option, although I'd probably use the theme that I'm using's menu color.

Their is no down load. It has not been invented for the cinnamon desktop yet. Its a feature in Ubuntu's Unity dash that would look good in mint menu.

Please edit your idea to include the PPA or direct download information as this would be helpful to those who want to install it.

I personally dislike the idea of a chameleon menu, although I can appreciate others who would enjoy it. As purely visual aesthetic, I think the black-grey menu is much cleaner, sharper and complements various wallpapers more strongly.
However, as an additional feature that can be turned on/off, I think it is excellent.
